Looks like a cool place...sounds like a great place to come and race. We run a lot of 13.5 rubber in these parts. Will you have a 13.5 rubber class at this event?

I would be open to it. We havent started racing with rubber tires yet but I really want to start since it is so populer everywhere else. So I would be willing to try it.

It is right off of I25, take the Jefferson exit and your right there. Will post flyer and directions by the end of the weekend. Just want to take some photos of the finished track. We can find a spot for your truck I am sure.

That is definitely good to hear! I run thru there all the time so I look forward to stopping by. Please post not only the directions but possible classes, and when it will and won't be open. Personally I do mainly rubber 13.5 but I am open to whatever is run.

Here is the flyer. The track is located at 5101 Mcleod RD NE. Exit Jefferson head east. Road bends south. First light is Mcleod. Make a left turn heading east. Before the light and just before the gas station on north side is the building were the track is located.

Sean and John,

Looks like an awesome facility. I know I'll do my best to make it down and hopefully several of the other Colorado racers will join in.

FYI for classes;
Look at the big race sites for ideas on classes to run as most tracks around the nation follow suite so if local people decide to go they've got the experience necessary to compete.

Hey guys. We did look at the big racers for class choice and that is why we have added a few classes to our typical classes that we run but I couldnt get rid of the local classes for our local racers. I think that it will be a good mixture of classes and I am really looking forward to the event I hope you are too.

Things have been a bit hectic trying to get some results posted up. I can tell you we had a great turn out last week. 17 touring, 9 12th scale, 7 WGT. Not bad for second race of the season. We also will be holding the Regaion 10 regionals in February as confirmed by Regional director Bobby Davis. More information will be coming very soon.
