Chuckwalla Valley Raceway: Reviews
Fantastic experience: What a fantastic track and the upgrades are great. Definitely need to book a cabin next time. Check out NASA's HPDE classes, especially with Patrick Orozco.
Fantastic experience: Great Track! Nice Staff. Comfy Cabin. I will be tracking here again. Thank you Chuckwala
Fantastic experience: First time motorcycle track day did not disappoint. Was nice to stay at the cabins really comfortable, slept well and I think the showers were soft water too. Made it really nice waking up at the track.
Fantastic experience: This review is specifically for the cabins available at the Chuckwalla raceway. My son & I stayed one night after he spent the day racing. Making reservations is very easy on the Chuckwalla website. Several days before your stay they will email you the door lock code. There is no check in/check out procedure you have to do which is nice. The cabin is very nice; all bedding is provided + towels. One double bed and a sofa sleeper. The mattress for the sofa was not comfortable unfortunately so this is one area for improvement. Full kitchen, fridge, 2 burner stove, microwave, utensils, plates cups provided. I believe you do need to bring pots & pans though if you plan on cooking. Also nice wooden porch in front, picnic table & fire ring. I would definitely stay again, it was nice to not drive home 2.5 hours after a long day at the track and be able to just take a nice shower and relax for the evening. There are no stores in the area so you need to bring all supplies/food/drink you will need.
Fantastic experience: Always a great time coming out here for CVMA events and the view of the desert and surrounding mountains is breath taking.
Fantastic experience: First ever track experience! It was awesome the people that work there were cool!
Fantastic experience: Best track for amenities bathrooms always clean love being able to shower after a hot day at the track
Fantastic experience: Fun, fast track. Restrooms have showers. We'll definitely be here again.
Fantastic experience: Awesome experience with giving and friendly too notch racers.
Fantastic experience: Great facility and Dave who runs the place is awesome.
Fantastic experience: I went to Chuckwalla Valley Raceway for a track day a few weeks ago, and I was all over the place and not organized for the race weekend. I talked to someone named Erin, I think? She said they had a cabin available for Saturday and assured me they would save it for me. I was pleasantly surprised and very grateful. When I arrived, I met a lady named "QUE," and the cabin was ready for me. Checking in was easy, even though I had left my wallet at a donut shop over 200 miles away. All I had was my checkbook, ID, and my word, oh, and a box of custom Chuckwalla donuts! The customer service was amazing. They let me come in anyway, let me have some candy, and I bought some Red Bulls. One night, I talked to QUE for almost an hour. She's from the town and has lived there for a long time. She told me about the lavender fields, rose quartz rocks, old stores, restaurants, gas stations, and about Kasier. It felt like a trip down memory lane. It wasn't just a desert to her; it was home. I really appreciated the time she took to answer all my questions about the little town. Thank you for making me feel like family and accommodating my cabin needs. I was originally going to stay with Speed One, but we had too many drivers, so the cabin was PERFECT. Thank you so much for everything, especially QUE! Bella Allen Cabin #14
Fantastic experience: Beyond amazing. Like family. Take care of their patrons and staff to a high level of living and care. Dave the GM is strong but fair. Kind and a great leader as you can see it with his team. They go out of their way to make everyone’s time exceptional. I surely will be buying a unit and becoming a member. Excellent quality track and weather. It’s my new winter home. So Far I’m flying down from Canada every other week
Fantastic experience: Awesome track!
Fantastic experience: The cabins are comfortable, the track has a lovely flow and beautiful setting, and the people are so kind and welcoming. I am so glad we spent the day (and an overnight!) here and cannot wait to come back. This is a very special place with especially good people.
Fantastic experience: Always the best. TrackExperience puts on a great event with smart and very personable staff.
Fantastic experience: Have always loved this track, new manager Dave made it even better, one of my favorite tracks in the area, always worth the drive!!!
Fantastic experience: We had a blast the people were friendly food was great the cars were great we all had a great time will definitely be back. Come check it out people you won't be disappointed
Fantastic experience: Been going to this place for 3 years, facility is clean and track condition is awesome. The only downside side I could think of is it is located at middle of no where ( closest tesla super charger is like 40 minutes away)
Fantastic experience: Fun track, meet General Manger, nice caring guy. Cabin are great. The only downside they charge you 20.00 per person on parking at cabins instead of how many cars. Doesn't make sense to me.
Fantastic experience: This place is amazingly beautiful! We arrived at 5:30 am on a Saturday. This place was inviting and had pm wry of space. My husband and I drove by some little small cabins they rent. The place was quiet, they also have bathrooms with hot showers by the race tracks if you need it. We stayed until the last race which was past 5 pm I think. They also have car races on Sunday arriving Saturday afternoon.
Fantastic experience: Excellent place to have fun with your car ❤️
Positive experience: They now charge $20 entry at the gate per person. This is on top of your event registration you already paid for. This entry fee has gone up $5 every year. When the track has already been rented why are we charged to enter? There’s no business opportunity lost so this fee is just greedy.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand that the gate fee may be seen as an inconvenience, but it is a standard practice in the racing industry to charge a fee for entry to most facilities. This fee helps us to maintain the property, staff the event, and provide a safe and enjoyable experience for all of our visitors. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future.
Fantastic experience: Very clean and nice cabins to spend the night. Fast fluid well Paved racetrack. Friendly staff. Theres fuel on site 91,100, and 110 however if you only use 91 fill up at the Chevron about 20-25 miles away off Chiriako summit before getting here. I didn’t see a tire shop and there was no restaurant open on our track day. We brought our own food so it didn’t matter just pointing it out. Had a an amazing day, will definitely come back to drive, and stay in the cabins again to be rested for driving on the track.
Fantastic experience: Amazing facility. If you haven't been here for a socal trackday, you been missing some absolutely sick riding. Sign up quick, spots are limited!
Fantastic experience: Outstanding facility. Massive amount of upgrades recently, most importantly the track surface itself. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Well managed, everything was closely supervised and monitored throughout the day by Micky to ensure everyone was having a good experience. This always has been my favorite track because of the layout, now it’s also my favorite surface, facilities, and staff. You won’t be disappointed.
Fantastic experience: Gas Station... What a life saver...... Car was on E at the 62 junction... Nearest gas station was 40 miles away. Called them up and we were able to buy gas and get back on the road. Place looks cool too ... maybe we will come back and rent a cabin. .. And there is even a dog park!!
Fantastic experience: Fun track
Fantastic experience: Nice
Positive experience: For a desolate place which which most race tracks have to be if they don't want people moving in next door and complaining that they are too loud, This place is pretty awesome. The bathrooms are amazing and they have a little dog park. The dog park could use a little bit ofTLC as my dog's got goat head thorns in their feet, But just having a dog friendly race track is awesome.
Negative experience: BE VERY CAREFUL. THIS BUSINESS IS VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. IF YOU CANCEL FOR ANY REASON THEY WILL KEEP YOUR MONEY AND TRY TO MAKE YOU FEEL BAD AND PLAY GAMES. DO NOT FOR ANY REASON DO BUSINESS WITH THEM UNLESS YOU ARE 100 % CERTAIN YOU CAN ATTEND.
Fantastic experience: Improved amenities and asphalt is holding up well. Great spot for a trackday.
Fantastic experience: Everything about this place was more than expected! Went out to the track for the weekend with the family and noticeably from the entrance this place was cleaner than anyone could expect. Just as some are probably worried about staying in a nasty hotel, this was completely opposite. The kitchen was clean, the bathrooms not a spec, floors were clean, rooms and bed were emaculate. The bed was the most comfortable bed ive ever slept in. The rules while on the property are posted and very clear! Nice deck you can sit outside and unwind, watch the sun rise or set. I didnt see a place you could BBQ however, I saw other people bring their own BBQ grill and there is a fully equipped kitchen for all your cooking needs. Loved and enjoyed our stay here. Would definitely recommend this place ❤ FYI * the office sells approx 20lb bags of ice for 7.00!
Fantastic experience: Great place
Fantastic experience: It is a fun, safe race course!
Fantastic experience: This track is one of my favorite tracks to ride.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic racing oasis in the middle of the desert! Love the cabins and the tracks many amenities. The staff has been very pleasant to interact with and our stay has been nothing but amazing. Sure was worth the 3 hour drive from Phoenix!
Fantastic experience: My review is probably gonna be a bit biased because I have worked here now for several years.. That being said this place ROCKS! We get people here that drive from the east coaat pf Canada in 4 days . They stay here for 3 days racing and enjoying our paradice. Then drive fpr dour more days to get home again That is almost 3 to 1 days of driving for each day of racing. The numbers dont lie. Come on out and check us out. I l ow I ll be there and so does anyone else who comes out here. I finally found a home Thanks to the Grana family.
Fantastic experience: Race weekend with Speed Ventures & ProAuto Sports
Fantastic experience: Amazing track. Always enjoy the experience there. Great safety protocol. Usually stay in the Palm Desert area overnight, and cruise to the track in the morning. Mid day track break there is a gas station and good food about 10 min west of the track.
Fantastic experience: Super nice track. Staff really friendly and track organizers are realky professional
Fantastic experience: Gear heads dream.
Fantastic experience: Been to CVR since Micky first opened up. Be it in my Z06, or on a bike, I enjoy CVR. I've been in the cabin's (they're great, btw.) I've gone clockwise & counter clockwise. (Sometimes, on the SAME DAY.) (It's great to have the WHOLE track to yourself!) Sometimes, sand can blow over the track. Bummer, but not something that can be controlled. I need to get back there, soon. Hold me a spot...:)
Fantastic experience: Awesome track, great event and management are very friendly
Fantastic experience:
Fantastic experience: Love this track & with the new pavement and constant improvements, it's easily the best track in socal
Fantastic experience: One of the best track in socal
Fantastic experience: Racing was awesome! Track was wide and nicely laid out. Will definitely go back can't wait.
Fantastic experience: Me gustó muy bonito ambiente
Fantastic experience: The cabins are comfortable and have everything you need.
Negative experience: 刚做了地面,没有任何警示,赛道没有维护好就照常开业,三十辆车摔了16辆,对车手非常不负责!
Fantastic experience: Love this place
Fantastic experience: Run by good people.
Fantastic experience: Clean and well organized cabins. Even if you choose to bring your own bed sheets and towels, the kitchenette is well equipped. See the list in the pictures below. Sofa bed and bed are in 2 different rooms: good opportunity to share the cabin with another racer.
Fantastic experience: Liz and John were very accommodating and friendly. Onsite cabins are very cozy and we had a fun and safe weekend during our time there, definitely recommend!!
Positive experience: Great Track for Motorcycle and Car Enthusiasts they also have cabins that you can reserve for overnight stays. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Downside is they are far away from the nearest hospital Facilites so if you go down on the track you can expect a hour transport via AMR Ambulance services..
Fantastic experience: Best day of my life
Fantastic experience: Have been to Chuckwalla Valley Raceway several times with NASA AZ for racing. The Owner and staff are very friendly and helpful. Track is wide, good pavement, plenty of run off for racing and beginner HPDE drivers. Restrooms and showers in paddock area and plenty of space for race trailers, RV's, etc. Bring all your supplies with you, food, water, fuel, etc for the weekend. The nearest gas station is 25 miles and grocery store in 51 miles. Its a long drive from Texas, but planning to go back.
Fantastic experience: I'm happy to be back here. One of the best tracks ever made in my opinion.
Fantastic experience: This track is perfect in everyway. Feels like Home.
Fantastic experience: Great smooth track!! So far my favorite in Southern California!
Fantastic experience: Always awesome!
Negative experience: This place is gross .. they hire thieves and tweekers .. police report on file .. the stallards are a direct link to thieves ... it’s terrible .. been in contact with owner and he has authorized this action
Fantastic experience: Great track always a lot of fun!
Fantastic experience: Home sweet home
Fantastic experience: Chuckie is an AWESOME and challenging track,especially clockwise going into turn 9! If you don't have an RV,the cabins are absolutely better than most hotels! All the comforts of home including fast WIFI and VERY clean and priced just right. Staff was very polite and professional. It's part of our annual Track Days! Its in the middle of nowhere which makes sitting around the campfire under the stars,relaxing. Make sure you bring lots of fuel,food and water because the nearest stores are 25 miles away!
Fantastic experience: Happiest Place on Earth.. staff and facilities are top notch.
Fantastic experience: Fun track and I will definitely be going back!
Fantastic experience: One of the best place on Socal great time
Fantastic experience: Always a great experience at Chuckwalla Raceway! The track staff is wonderful and the track is very well maintained. The Cabins are a wonderful addition. Perfect place to unwind and rest up after eventful day at the track. Clean, Comfortable, and quiet. Waking up to copper colored mountains are blissful.
Fantastic experience: Awesome track. Beautiful setting. Great people. Extreme Motorsports taken extremely seriously.
Fantastic experience: My high school sweetheart of race tracks
Fantastic experience: One of the best in the west! Staff is friendly and very helpful much like a second family. Everyone here looks out for each other. Every time I come back it feels like home.
Fantastic experience: Place saved my butt when i ran out of gas!
Fantastic experience: What a great race track. A lot of fun. They keep everyone very safe here too. It gets hot out there, but luckily there is "some"shade if you have a pop up tent...
Fantastic experience: While I never drove a single mile here, I must say the people of this track are truly wonderful, kind people who helped us when we were completely stranded! We had run out of gas on I-10, and though we'd brought bikes, the closest gas station was 20 miles away. After a few quick calls, we biked down to the track where Warren loaded us into his truck, loaned us a gas can, and sold us the few gallons we were short. Not to leave a job half done, he drove us (and our bikes) back to our Jeep, saving us the return bike ride. The office lady was also very helpful and the grounds, beautifully maintained. There were several cabins in the front that you could rent, a fenced in dog area, tent camping, and a new motocross track! I'm not a racer, but this place is a little oasis in the Desert Center.
Fantastic experience: The race director is HOT!
Fantastic experience: The cabins are incredible and so is the track. It can get extremely hot. Bring water
Fantastic experience: Great track!
Fantastic experience: I've ridden Chuckwalla at a couple of motorcycle trackdays. It's pretty f'n hot out there in June and July. Also rode in November and it was perfect.....so try to go then. As far as the track layout, it's a blast and several sections are really unique. Take it easy until you do a bunch of laps, and I mean a bunch. Ride safe.
Fantastic experience: Tangible, visceral, incredible fun.
Fantastic experience: Great track. Love shooting out there. Sunsets are unmatchable.
Fantastic experience: I had the unfortunate event of getting stranded with no gas and I thought Mr. McGee's station had gas but it didn't. Thankfully I knew about this place because of race events from friends and they actually sell gas here. The gas is about $5.73 but I'm so grateful I would've been stuck here and had to pay a stupid tow service
Positive experience: Great place to race! Showers on site as well as a gas station.
Fantastic experience: Best track in SoCal?
Fantastic experience: awesome place !!! a must visit!!!!!!
Fantastic experience: Amazing owners with an exceptional, fun track!

Fantastic experience: What a great track and facility! Best trackday experience I've ever had, and what a track. Turn 13, "The Bowl," is fookin amazing! Get out here and ride! Thanks CVR and thanks SoCal Trackdays!
Fantastic experience: April 2013 - Jason Pridmore Star School - Went with my buddy Lincoln Bridges and had an absolute blast! He on his F800ST and I on my FZ1 Gen1. The track has been repaved and smooth as silk everywhere. The school was run very professionally and the 2up ride w/Jason on his GSXR was a hoot. Will recommend to everyone and go again soon!
Fantastic experience: Love this track on my R6
Fantastic experience: Love this track, but bring plenty of your own food and water!
Fantastic experience: Love this track and racing environment with CVMA. Hands down the owners are the best and have nothing but our best interest in mind... Bathrooms are almost done and i love racing in the heat....
Positive experience: Good track to race at, kinda far and no amenities...
