Our Gang Ice Racing

Georgetown, Colorado

Important Updates!

We had a successful first weekend and we want to thank everyone who participated and stepped up to help out when help was needed!

UPCOMING CHANGES
Based upon feedback from our first event of the 2021 Season, we are reverting some of our prior class combinations in order to accommodate competition among a larger spectrum of vehicle/tire combinations.

We will be splitting the Street Bare Rubber class into Street Bare Rubber and Pro Street Bare Rubber, with the distinction based on the type of tires on the vehicle. Tires that are sold or marketed as studless winter tires or tires with a rubber compound specifically designed for ice traction, such as most Blizzaks, Nokians, Michelin X-Ice, etc., will be placed in the Pro Street class. We will ask which tires are on your vehicle during registration and will move you to a different class if needed.

We will also be splitting the Pro Street Rally/Studs class into Pro Street Studs and Pro Street Rally.

RACE REGISTRATION
The next race weekend is at the end of this month! Keep in mind that registration must be completed online by Friday, January 29 at noon. Late and on-site registration will NOT be available!

Our new Sunday Fun Day Track event is full for the second weekend and we already have a wait list. If this sounds like the best fit for you, we would encourage you to sign up for one of our February events.

Registration for the first two February race weekends (Weeks 3 & 4) are now live! You can find the links on our schedule.

RACE RESULTS & CURRENT STANDINGS
The results from the 1st weekend have been posted! You can find them on the Point Standings page.

SPECTATORS
Spectating is FREE, as always. However, Clear Creek County is currently at LEVEL ORANGE on Colorado’s COVID-19 dial. At this level, in order to meet state and local requirements, face coverings must be worn when outside of your vehicle and a physical distance of at least 6 feet must be maintained from members of other households at all times, except in cases where it is unsafe to maintain that distance.

The Cheater Invitational

2017.5 Champion: Jimmy Olson

Each season drivers in Competition Cheaters compete for points during the regular season in order to earn their spot in the Invitational.  The top 8 women and top 8 men (by highest point total) are then invited to compete for the Cheater Invitational Championship.  You can click on year below to see more information on that year’s Cheater Invitational.

The History of the Invitational:

Go for the Gold

2015 Champion: Jimmy Olson

The Go for the Gold is held once a season.  It’s a Championship race for the Competition Studs division drivers.  Any driver eligible for Competition Studs can enter this race.  Each race heat is 2 laps (instead of the normal 1 lap) and the winner of each heat advances in a single elimination bracket until there is one driver left.  The Go for the Gold Champion is recognized at our Season Championship Banquet with a trophy.

Fun Day Practice

Fun Day will kick off our season Friday, January 9th.  Our Gang will begin setting tracks at 9am, so Registration will not open until 11am when tracks have been completed.  We try to have 2 or 3 tracks open for most of the day.  If we hit 200 entrants, Registration will close for the day.  We will close the ice around 3:30pm, so the volunteers working can get in their practice before sunset.

Click here for the Fun Day Driver’s Packet.  If you plan to race or get a race tech inspection for later in the season, please use the Driver’s Packet for Races.

To register for practice you need to:

1.  Pass the annual race tech inspection ($10 per vehicle) or if you only want to come for Play Day, you will have to pass a basic safety inspection ($5 per vehicle).

2.  Sign our waiver and fill out a Registration sheet.

3.  Show your Driver’s License.  Dates must be valid, please check your expiration dates!

4.  Show your proof of insurance.  (Again, check the dates on your insurance cards to make sure they’re current!)

5.  Bring CASH to pay fees.  Entry to practice is $20 per driver.  Race tech inspections are $10 per vehicle or Fun Day Only inspections are $5 per vehicle.

The rules are pretty simple:

1.  Make sure your vehicle is compliant BEFORE showing up at Georgetown.  4 wheel drive or all wheel drive full size vehicles only.  No UTVs, ATVs, motorcycles, snowmobiles, etc.  Practice is only open to bare rubber tires or studded tires.  Tires with screws, bolts or studs longer than 20mm are prohibited.  Vehicles cannot have any fluid leaks, must be able to steer, brake and stop safely and must have any applicable safety equipment.

2.  Leave the track the way you found it.  If you hit a cone during your practice heat, replace it before the next pair goes onto the ice.  Anyone purposely hitting cones or destroying tracks will be asked to leave without a refund.

3.  Be respectful to the other drivers.  Each practice heat is one lap.  Do not cut the staging lines, wait your turn.  We have a studded tire only track, if you don’t have studded tires, please stay off this track.

4.  All drivers and passengers must wear a seat belt at all time.  Studded tire entries must have a helmet for driver and passenger.

5.  No donuts, drifting or speeding off track.  When driving through the parking lots, pits and between tracks you should be at an idle speed.  Please pay attention where you are driving; do not cross active tracks, stay away from the outside of corners and out of the path of those racing.  Anyone driving recklessly will be asked to leave without a refund.

You should only be driving on track, staging or between tracks.  Anyone who enters the public boundary or any part of the ice that is not open to driving will be asked to leave immediately.  This is a natural ice surface, not all areas are safe for driving.
