Driver Info:
Please purchase your IMCA license ahead of time on the IMCA website! It will save everyone some time on race night!
Also fill out our track registration form on our website to make sign in a lot faster this week!
Race receiver frequency is 454.000 or Channel 0 (Default). Every driver on the track will be required to wear one at all times!
All drivers must have a properly mounted Westhold transponder. Sport compacts mounted in the right rear wheel well, Hobby Stocks and Stock Cars on the firewall (no more than 24" off the ground and a clear view from the transponder to the track), SportMods and Modifieds on the motor plate. If you have a rounded top transponder it is to be mounted vertically, and if you have a straight rectangle transponder it is to be mounted horizontally. See the Westhold website for more mounting info. These are IMCA rules for transponders and will be enforced! Transponders are available to rent for $15.
We can't wait to see everyone back! Bring your family, friends, and neighbors for high speed thrills as we kick off 2024!
