02/22/2020 - 02/23/2020

Saturday, February 22nd & Sunday, February 23rd - Stock, Super Stock, and Masters, 1 Double & 1 single elimination race each day.

Indoor soap box derby racing like it should be. We will have over 200 feet of track and we will be using our 8' tall ramps.

Race weekend schedule here.

New Race Venue for 2020 - Fox Valley Mall 195 Fox Valley Center, Aurora, IL. We will be at the south east corner of the Mall in the former Sears store. Look for the debry car outside the entrance door.

 We will be featuring our fast 8 foot tall starting ramps transitioning onto 200+ feet of super smooth racing surface ending with a long, safe braking zone. Clean, spacious pit area for 50+ cars and their crews with plenty of space for tools and chairs.

This is a great opportunity for rally racers to earn a large number of points during the winter racing season as we are anticipating racers from 10+ states, making this the premier winter racing event in the US.

Chicago is the only race city that has a state-of-the-art timing system with a phone app that allows you to view race results instantaneously. Even those watching back at home can view each and every phase of racing!
