The Off-Road Motorsports Hall of Fame is a hall of fame dedicated to notable competitors and contributors of off-road racing in North America.
ORMHOF has an extensive digital collection of off-road related materials and maintains a collection of off-road vehicles that are on display at major automotive museums around the United States.
The first event by NORRA (1967) was called the Mexican 1000 Rally, which was later renamed the Baja 1000.
Pearlman stopped promoting the series in 1976, so he decided to recognize contributors to the sport.
He inducted the first sixteen members in the hall of fame in January 1978.
