Rainbow Road Trackcross (on Asphalt!)

We promised an event in the midwest, and we’re doing it! Join us for two days of trackcross – autocross format but on portions of an actual racetrack – at Gingerman Raceway in South Haven, MI. Bring your daily driver, bring your prepped track car, or bring a Queen Of The Rental Fleet that cost you $2,000 or less to buy and prepare.

Guests/Crew/Spectators

Some of you will want to come hang out for the weekend but not drive and compete. We’d love to have you! Please register as “Crew” below.

Refunds

We get it – sometimes things come up and you can’t make the event. However, the policy you agree to when you register is “All sales final – no cancellation, refund, or credit. Entry is transferrable to another person for this event only.”

We are truly sorry if you disagree but there are no exceptions to this policy, so please don’t ask. Think of your registration like concert tickets or sporting event passes – they get you a seat at a specific place and time for a potentially sold-out event, and that’s all.

If you are having car problems, your best option is to bring a different car. If you find you cannot attend for any other reason, your best option is to sell or give the spot to someone else qualified to participate, then let us know whose name to put on it by 72 hours prior. This policy is financially necessary and part of how we keep our entry fees as low as possible and keep things fair for everyone; thanks for understanding.
