Mud bogging. Adrenaline-junkie. Fast graded roads to gnarly rocks, whoops, and silt. For decades, UTV racing has mainly been considered a man's endeavor — sweat, grease, dirt, and horsepower. Not in today's world. More women are crossing over into the ranks of off-road motorsports and UTV racing.

Professional off-road racer and Red Bull athlete Mia Chapman recently switched from short course off-road racing to UTV racing.

And the switch is proving to be a triumphant move — with a solid season debut at the Parker 250, the first round of the 2021 Best in the Desert season for UTV racers. Chapman persevered through one of the most challenging races of the year to take a 13th place class finish.

UTV with Mia Chapman

When asked about the recent switch to UTV racing, Mia Chapman stated, "I'm really excited to make the switch to full-time desert racing for the 2020 season. After many successful years of short course racing, conquering another discipline, in a new vehicle, this is a challenge I just couldn't pass up. I'm really grateful for all of my partners as we take the next adventure, from the ones that have stuck by me for years to the new ones that have come on board in the offseason."

Mia added, "Thanks to Yokohama, we've got the right tires for the job in conquering the desert terrain. I'm also honored to be a part of the Vision Wheel driver family and looking to kick things off on a high note in Parker!"
