RACE FORMAT

Wheel to wheel racing with staggered start and corrected time. This means if you started 20 seconds after the first vehicle, you have until 60 minutes 20 seconds after initial flag drop to complete your last lap. Only full laps will be counted to your lap total.
Each driver must complete a specific number of laps designated for their class. Finish order will be determined by the time it takes to complete total laps. In the event, you don’t complete all laps of the race, the total number of laps you have completed at the time of curfew will determine your finish order.

Stock class will race to 6 laps with a 1 hour curfew. If competitors have not finished their 6 laps within the curfew, their last completed lap will be their final lap count to determine finishing position.

Unlimited and Modified will race together. Unlimited vehicles will enter the course first, followed by modified vehicles. Unlimited & Modified classes will race to 6 laps with a 2 hour curfew. Unlimited and modified class must complete the obstacle known as “Witch’s Tit” (refer to map) once during their 6 laps – if you fail to complete the “Witch’s Tit” obstacle, you will be assessed a penalty of 10 minutes added to your total time. There will be a course marshal/recovery at Witch’s Tit keeping track of racers completing the obstacle.  If competitors have not finished their 6 laps within the curfew, their last completed lap will be their final lap count to determine finishing position.
