Have a car built for more than $2000 and want in on the autocross and drag strip runs at the Grassroots Motorsports $2000 Challenge Presented by Tire Rack and Powered by AutoBidMaster? Well, good news, your car is welcome, too–register it and bring it to Gainesville Raceway on March 29-30.

For autocross, competitors can make as many runs as they’d like throughout Saturday, March 29. No coursework is required, either. Plus, if you’ve ever wondered what a pro could do in your ride, such as two-time Rolex 24 At Daytona class winner Randy Pobst, you can enlist their services, although those runs do not count toward prizes. That’s right, there are trophies and $500 Tire Rack gift cards for the winners of each over-budget autocross class.

Likewise, on the drag strip you can make as many runs as you’d like during the evening of Saturday, March 29. Those with the fastest times will earn trophies as well.

The Grassroots Motorsports $2000 Challenge is Presented by Tire Rack and Powered by Autobidmaster.com, in Association with HPX Show, CRC Industries, A&A Manufacturing and BendPak.
