MIROC Sponsors Announced
Michigan Race of Champions is a new form of motorsport which is a combination of US style Autocross WRC Super Special, Race of Champions and X-Games Rally. Conducted on a 100% paved course, cars start of at half a lap apart and pursue each other over the course of a lap or two of the tight and twisty track. First car back to its start position wins. Often an event will consist of timed heats with the fastest 8 drivers going head to head in a knockout competition to determine the overall winner. Points are awarded throughout the season to determine the season champion. More info: www.teamilluminata.com/miroc.htm
