Henderson’s FabTech Desert Classic – The 2008 race format is going to be totally different from the last four years. We are still going to be starting in the same location on private property out in the Eldorado Valley, 15 miles from downtown Henderson, with a brand new grand prix course in the infield. The infield will offer great place to spectate, where you can watch racing all day long. The new fun and challenging race course will be between 55-60 miles in length and all race vehicles will be racing on the same exciting course. There will no longer be two separate pit areas for motorcycle/quad/utv’s and car/trucks, there will be one large pit area for everyone, with the exciting infield track in the middle. The new format will be running three separate races. The first race will start at 6:30 am with the motorcycles, quads and utv’s starting and racing. The 2nd race and 3rd race start times are approximate depending on the time the previous race vehicles reach a certain mile marker and it is safe to start the next race. Below are the class divisions and time designations:

1st Race – 6:30 am – Motorcycle, Quads & UTV’s – The motorcycles and quads will race around an approximate 55-60 mile loop four times, with a grand prix finish. The UTV’s will race around the approximate
55-60 mile loop two times with a grand prix finish.

2nd Race – (approx) 10:00 am – Class 1100, 1700, 2000, 3100, 3700, 4100, 5000, 7100, 7300, 8100
These classes will race around an approximate 55-60 mile loop four times, with a grand prix finish.

3rd Race – (approx) 2:00 pm – Class 1000, 1200, 1400, 1500, 7200, 8000. These classes will race around an approximate 55-60 mile loop four times, with a grand prix finish.

Special Note: some classes will have more than one race vehicle start at the same time.

Sounds Exciting! Count on it !!!

The grand prix setup is a great idea for the last race of the season! It will give more racers a chance at the points championship by actually racing for it and not just finishing for it.

The tract must be very fast, BITD is expecting the slower cars to average 55-60 mph.

Pretty much. Dont tell you are going to run the TT in 1800.

[co_big_cheese]

Thought it was the Fabtech 400. 4 laps at 60 miles each doesn't add up.

I don't see an 1800? Gonna let some of the team drive it if there is a class?

I am racing in 1400...LOL

[Kartman]

I dont see it on the list either but 1800 aka Safari is the class.
