I race the Baja 500 and 1000 every year - that is Off-road.

Again, it is a matter of perspective. I see LOTS of Mexican family type cars on the Baja Mil course before, during, and after the races.
Actually it is usually easier to drive in the desert NEXT to the road in Baja because it is smoother.
How about a hierarchy of terms describing the route?
"freeway"
"highway"
"paved road"
"graded graveled road"
"graded road"
"track"
"trail"
"trace"
"off-road"
"Western Cwm-Southeast Ridge On Chomolungma" - "
Very steep road"
"Wicked Twisted Road"
