The racetrack road runs south from Ubehebe Crater to the Racetrack Playa in death valley National Park. It's a rough, washboarded road and can be quite an uncomfortable trip. The rock pieces are jagged and sharp and there's not enough room to pass someone coming in the other direction. That's how we got our flat – we punctured the sidewall while pulling over to let someone pass. We were all surprised to see someone in a regular sedan driving along this road. It's not a place to take your own vehicle. This is a view to the north, taken during a break somewhere south of Ubehebe Crater and north of Teakettle Junction.
