Event Details
What is Road Bracket Racing?
- RBR is a way to test your skills and compete on a level playing field against other drivers and vehicles
- After a practice session ,You tell us what your lap time will be during a timed session
- The person with the closest three runs is the winner!
How it works:
- We will zip tie a transponder to your vehicle during the Tech Inspection
- You’ll complete a quick ~1/2 hour meeting to explain how the event works
- Participate in a timed practice session in the Morning.
- Choose your target lap time based on the timed practice session runs
- We’ll place you out on the track by order of fastest to slowest to minimize traffic
- Drive your session and try to get as close to your chosen time as you can.
- Your best times will be used to score your runs. The lower the differential, the better your score.
Basic rules:
- Point to pass rules… no driver may pass unless they are pointed by the leading driver
- NO wheel to wheel racing! All passes are completed in controlled zones with driver acknowledgment
