New Off-Road Start Time

NOTICE: We have moved the racing start time from 11:00AM to NOON for the next four off-road races. Doors will still open at 9:00AM for pit setup and practice. We hope this gives everyone a little more practice time.

As always, please check the schedule for up-to-date times, dates, and details.

Late Start Poll

Recently, NORCAR tried two “late start” races. We opened the doors at 3:00PM and racing started at 5:00PM. We’d like your opinion on whether we should continue to occasionally schedule “late start” races. Normally, our doors open at 9:00AM and we start racing around noon or 1:00PM.

Are you in favor of starting some races later on Saturdays in the future?
