At 11:00am, judges will begin making their top 16 brackets for Clubsport and Legends classes. At 2:00pm, we will start the competition for the Clubsport class. Drivers will battle in a Top 16 bracket until a winner is decided.
On Sunday morning, we will open the track at 9:00am. We will start off with a quick Legends Top 16 comp.. After the comp we will take a small break before going full hot track the remainder of the event! To add to this, from 12-6pm on Sunday, we will be drifting the CMP Kart track for the first time in history!!
