🚨 Juicebox Class Update 🚨

👉🏼 We will be running the Juicebox class this Saturday 05/23. We made the decision to move it up a week due to Poweri racing 05/30.

The first race was fun and memorable but here are a few pointers we will be enforcing moving forward.

- Juicebox Drivers will be accompanied by parents/adults ONLY. No other kids will be allowed on track during the race.

- Juicebox Driver must know how to stop on command and stay within the race surface. (This is on the infield around victory lane.) NOT ON BIG TRACK.

- We will line all drivers in front of victory lane. A green flag will be shown when the drivers will begin the race. It will be a 3 Lap Feature. (Green., White and Checkered will be used if you’d like to teach the kids)

We will bring these rules to the drivers meeting if any questions arise.

ADULTS ONLY WILL BE ENFORCED‼️ This is a Safety Concern.

If you need to speak to anyone about information to join this class don’t hesitate to reach out to Kylee Griffitts or Kassidi Cobin
