All racers and anyone in their vehicle will be given wrist bands when they pay at the gate, this will get them their passes for food put on by the Kitimat racer’s. Make sure you get enough passes for your crew/family & friends.

Afternoon will consist of:
King of the YXT

Quick 8
Feature vehicle will make 3 passes
Quick 8 will work as follows:
We will be running both days during time trials to determine who the quickest 8 cars are and offer them an opportunity to buy into a separate class known as Quick 8. It will cost $100.00 above and beyond the regular entry fee to enter the Quick 8. For those 8 cars entered, if you win one round, you win $100.00 (which is basically your entry fee back), we will be splitting up $3000.00 in the Quick 8 field. 1st place will walk away with $1350.00!!!!! We will also be discussing at the driver’s meeting on Monday if we want to run a Standard tree or 4/10th or 5/10th Pro tree for the Quick 8 class. We will also award $200.00 for the Top Qualifier for Quick 8.
We are looking for Mother Nature to work with us this weekend, we have some special cars coming from far away, A barbeque with a great band, & big crowds expected. So please pass the word, let’s make this a success as it has been over the years.
