Entry List

  • Nearly unlimited track time (7AM - 12 Midnight)
  • 96x42 CRC HD Carpet / Clik-Trak Boards / sub-floor
  • Best lit track in the country. It's bright!
  • World's only custom LED scoreboard.
  • Full coverage on LiveRC.
  • Triple A-mains.

One of the finest facilities in the country, 5280 Raceway is a permanent indoor carpet track located in the heart of Denver.

On-road racing needs another quality 3 day event, run by experienced racers who know exactly what it takes to make racing fun. We understand traveling to race is expensive, and feel it's important to deliver not only a quality experience, and enjoyable track layout, but also a large amount of track time to test and tune. Sitting in a building for 12 hours a day to only get 10 minutes on the track has its place, but that's not what we're about. Get the most for your dollar against quality competition at a nearly perfect track.

Entries to this event will be limited, so when signups go live, and we'll give you plenty of notice before they do, be ready. The race will fill up fast, and has been extremely popular the last 7 years.

If you want to see what the track looks like day-to-day, we broadcast our club races on LiveRC every Thursday night and Sunday. I think we've got the best feed on LiveRC. It's like watching ESPN HD.

Glad to see some familiar names showing interest in the race!

Looking forward to this race, thanks for putting it on. What is the physical size of the track so I can start thinking about gearing?
