Driving enthusiasts from around the world gather in the Nevada high desert for the running of a truly unique racing and automotive event Sep. 12-15, 2019.
From Ely to Las Vegas, a two-lane public highway is closed for the race.
Classes begin at 95 mph, and increase in 5 mph increments up through the 160 mph class, with a 170 mph, 180 mph, and an Unlimited, top speed class. Vehicles start one at a time, in one minute intervals against a GPS timing clock, and attempt to break the beam at the finish line as close as possible to their speed class target time.
First, Second and Third place trophies are awarded to the Driver and Navigator/Co-driver in each class, based on most accurate elapsed time targets achieved, as measured by SSCC timing equipment.
