Immediately following racing continues on the 1.3-mile track with a 4-Hour Mini Bike Endurance race. While the minis are busy on the “small track”, there will be an Open Practice for big bikes from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on the 1.7 mile “big track”.

Saturday’s racing concludes with a trophy presentation and trackside racer/spectator meet and greet party. Sunday’s schedule is jam-packed with a full day’s worth of exciting and competitive Big Bike sprint races.
