The former Utah Motorsports Campus has officially reopened to the public as West Desert following a change in ownership. Located in Tooele County, the 511-acre campus is undergoing a transformation to establish the site as a national motorsports center of excellence.
The facility is now owned by PV3 Enterprises, a Utah-based private investment group. Since taking over the property earlier this year, PV3 Enterprises has invested more than $50 million into improvements throughout the campus. General Manager Joe Atkin stated that the company plans for additional significant investment in the coming years to elevate West Desert as a nationally recognized destination for innovation, performance, and community.
The campus features several specialized racing amenities, including a 4.5-mile road course, a 0.9-mile competitive karting track, and one of the country's longest front straights at 0.7 miles. Other facilities on the site include off-road courses, a skidpad, event spaces, grandstands, garages, and a paddock. The transformation aims to create a year-round destination for entertainment, driver development, and family experiences, with future plans to add residential, commercial, and retail offerings to the surrounding community.
The reopening marks a significant transition for the venue, which has operated for twenty years. Mark Hancock, Managing Partner of PV3 Enterprises, noted that the facility is beginning a new chapter as West Desert after two decades of operating as Miller Motorsports Park. Utah Governor Spencer Cox stated that the return to local ownership is worth celebrating and noted that the Miller family's original vision created a world-class facility that has brought people together through motorsports and recreation for two decades.
A public Grand Re-Opening celebration was scheduled for Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 1 p.m. to midnight. The event featured free admission and parking, an exotic car show from 4-8 p.m., and Roll Racing from 6-10 p.m. Visitors could also purchase an All Access Pass to participate in Hot Laps with professional drivers on the main track, drifting, off-roading, and karting surfaces.
