I agree!!! Street legal is the only requirement.
Puttting aside the obvious issue of land being RIDICULOUS $$$$, where would you put an offroad park? There isn't exactly a lot of land that is privately owned that would be a good place for such a venue. On top of that, nearby property owners would flip out! That would mean going further away from civilization and once you get 1-2 hours away you might as well just make the drive to Moab or StG. I love the idea but there is a reason it hasn't happened yet. If I had piles of money it would be a dream of mine.
not street "legal", just street licensed. "legal" would imply that they would be legal. like the LA/Barstow to Vegas motorcycle rally. the rule is that it must just be street licensed. but none of the dirt bikes are "legal" most don't even have taillights, signals, mirrors, mud-flaps or even DOT approved tires. but as long as it is street registered with a license plate attached somewhere you can run
but since portions of the rally are run on open public roads, any non-legal modifications would need to be kept to a minimum or else the Po-Po could nab you, and they would since they would be aware of the rally. meaning that some guy with a full-fledge KOH rig that could easily do the high-speed on-road parts who had some buddy pass it on safety to get a license plate, would then be slowed down by getting pulled over (or even impounded) by the Po-Po thus evening the odds for their obvious advantage in the rough stuff, and keeping the "million-dollar" rigs out of it.

This is a great idea. What should we do about it. Where should our next step be. Should we try to get together and talk about it. All great things started somewere.
maybe as a starter-route. integrate part of the pony-express trail, connecting it to cedar fort/5-mile/snakes, onto old-Lincoln highway, up the dirt switchbacks of middle canyon, down the paved switchbacks of butterfield, onto Baccus hwy at the bottom of butterfield, and over to the old rock quarry that people wheel in all the time for some "special stages".

that rock quarry is pseudo closed. they went in there and dug up all the 'trails' or blocked them with debris
when? that is literally right behind my house. the only parts I thought the blocked were the ones leading down to the "mountainview corridor" that they just built

i live right by there too actually 
the bottom pit was blocked off. the top open area is still open, but when i went up there about 2 weeks ago, they had the road blocked off before it crossed the tracks, and then from the other side, we found a way in, but then all the climbs were dug out with a bucket loader, or had piles of dirt in the way.

I thought the video was on the Mexican / Texas border. Wasn't it the Olympic Qualifying for Mexico?
