Divisions, Registration, Classes & Award Categories
 

Registration Info

When you arrive at the speedway, head to the registration booth in the parking lot and follow the signs.

ⓘ How Registration Works
  • Pre-registered with QR code: Show your code, pick up your wristbands, and you’ll be ready to roll in.
  • Registering on site: Purchase registration at the booth. Once you pay, you’ll receive your wristbands and be admitted.
● Roll-in starts at 8:00 AM on both Saturday and Sunday. Registration is open both days.
⚠ Overnight Vehicles: You may leave your car overnight — the facility will be locked and secured. However, no overnight staying inside the track is allowed.
 

Classes & Divisions

All show vehicles are judged within one of three division levels based on their level of modification. Select the division that best matches your build.

Street Division

Moderately modified vehicles using commercially available aftermarket and/or NOS parts for enhancement or restoration. All vehicles must retain factory body lines.

⚠ No replacement front or rear bumpers

Custom Division

Highly modified vehicles that include full replacement body kits, fabricated parts or panels, plus one-off items and custom interiors or electronics.

Wild

Extreme body modifications, motor swaps, frame swaps, body swaps, and anything else that pushes the absolute limits of customization.

 

Judging Criteria

All judging is based on a 100-point system across five equal categories. The Judges Opinion category serves as the tiebreaker.

1–20 Exterior
1–20 Interior
1–20 Engine
1–20 Chassis
1–20 Judges Opinion
