Come race with us and drink some milk in Victory Lane, just like that other Memorial Day race except about a million dollars cheaper! Madison Sports Car Club offers a Legen-Dairy weekend, repeating the popular format from last year. And yes, we're having competition-grade pulled pork with all the trimmin's again Saturday night! Also continuing this year for Autocross: enter any car in a second run class for just $60! You can try out a friend's car or double your track time for half price.
Madison Sports Car Club Presents a Legen-Dairy Weekend!
3 Great Days of High Speed Excitement
May 23, 24 & 25 Blackhawk Farms Raceway
- High Performance Driving Experience Saturday, May 23
- Drive your street car at Black Hawk Farms
- Awesome practice/test day for High Speed AXers & Wheel-to-Wheel racers
- Full day or 1/2 day sessions available!
- Saturday Night Dinner and Festivities!
- HPDE drivers MUST preregister by 11:00 pm Wednesday May 20
- Wheel-to-Wheel Enduro Race & High Speed Autocross Monday, May 25
- MC Enduro #1 in the series (2-1/2 hour race) Monday morning!
- Almost five hours of MC HSAX competition on Monday afternoon!
- PLUS! Over $600 in gas cards for race staff drawings!
Then, just two weeks later, NSSCC keeps the fun going with their
Blackhawk Formula Festival June 6 & 7 Blackhawk Farms Raceway
- Saturday will start with a half day HPDE. This format gives the ultimate in flexibility as it provides track time for HSAX entrants to practice, a chance for new drivers to experience what it is like to be on track, and a possibility for track time for comp drivers.
- Saturday afternoon will feature clock-smoking High Speed Autocross Competition.
- The Formula Feature Race will be a standing start 30 minute sprint that will take place at the end of Saturday's activities. This is a bonus race for any Small Formula or Big Formula group competitor registered for Sunday's races.
- A cookout in the paddock will follow the conclusion of the day's on-track activities.
- Full schedule of wheel to wheel racing action on Sunday.
- Free donuts, lunch, camping, and gas card raffles for staff.
- Track touring during lunch both days (weather permitting).
- Registration for all events will open soon on myautoevents.com
In a special tribute, NSSCC will remember one of its longtime members that passed last year-Bob Wismer. He will be honored with the missing man pace lap in his groups. Bob was a loyal, dedicated member of the club for many years and was a successful competitor in both Vintage/Historic and S2000. He was a kind, welcoming ambassador for the sport and is greatly missed in paddocks all over the country this year. We miss you Bob!
Until we race again,
