Day 6 in Akron, Ohio 🏁

Due to poor air quality caused by smoke from the Canada wildfires, all events scheduled for today have been canceled.

Unfortunately, that includes the National Super Kids Classic. While we’re disappointed the racers won’t get to compete today, the decision was made with everyone’s safety in mind.

The National Super Kids Classic racers will be invited back in 2027.

Stay safe, everyone! 🔥🩵

Day 2 in Akron, Ohio! ⛳🦆

We have a video of our local Super Stock Champion, Andrew, enjoying some time on the mini golf course. Instead of catching fish, I think he was trying to catch a duck! 😂

We hope all of our local champions are enjoying their time in Akron, making memories, and having a great week leading up to the big race day!
