Season opener! Round 1 at Zhoda.

/

Get ready for the gate to drop in 2022!  Below you will find all the info you need for the 2022 season!  All of this information will apply to every track in 2022 unless otherwise stated so we have consistency at every event moving forward.

Please Note: When registering through Red Podium, please note that “Transponder Required” will be checked by default. Please uncheck if you own and enter your transponder number.

All registrations submitted after Friday 5pm will be subject to a $25 late fee. We will not accept any race registrations after Sunday 8am.

Directions

From Winnipeg:

Take the Transcanada Highway to MB-12S. The track is approximately 25 minutes South of Steinbach (58km from the MB-12S exit). The turnoff is EXACTLY 4km past the green “ZHODA” sign. Turn right onto Franko Road (there are a few green electrical boxes on your left) and drive 3.3km. The track will be on your left. You cannot see the track from the road but you can see a big, white shop. We will try to have some kind of markers out on practice days on MB-12S and Franko Road.

Chapel to follow immediately afterwards, followed immediately by the start of practice.

GARBAGE BAGS

The promoters very much appreciated how everyone brought their own garbage bags and took their garbage with them on the way home.  This made a huge difference to the promoters and their clean up regime, so if we could continue with this practice for 2022 and beyond the promoters would be grateful for the courtesy.  Thank you.
