It’s On! Let’s Go!

After 4 years of searching & planning we will finally have the best track west of the Atlantic.

The Groove resides on the same property as Norway Motorsports Park
0.7 mile go-kart track.

  • Grand Opening will be held during the Inaugural United States Grand Prix hosted by Scotty Ernst June 10th – 14th,
    this is also set to be an annual event.
    Shake down and warm up race dates will be announced our Facebook page (The Groove R/C Raceway) & our website once it’s up and running.
  • Track info: size is 210’ x 100’ and will be a true Euro style ribbon track with 2–5 degrees banked corners along with slight elevation changes and a raised pit lane.
    No launch berms and minimal lane dividers will be used.
    The drivers stand will be built using double stacked convex boxes.
    Track will have 100 hard pit areas with electric, 100 spots on asphalt for pop-up canopies & around 2 acres of grass for pit trailers and campers (no hook ups yet).
    Food trucks, starlink, fm transmitter, tire truing stations & a body wash station with air will be available.
    16–25% Energy & Rocket Science fuel will be available.
  • Roar Nats application has been submitted.
  • Current status of track: pits paved, track is layed out with gravel base layed out and rolled.
    Plan will be to get pavement layer on track as soon as our local asphalt plants open early spring.
