This year's format is Mopar Only!! Not like in recent years where it was Mopar versus the World on Saturday.

There will also be a free car show and swap meet like every year.

Camping on site is welcome.

The track is located at 718 11th St. Clay City, KY 40312 right off exit 18 on the Bert T. Combs Mountain Parkway.

Unfortunately, the new website doesn't have a list of hotels in the area and the old Mountain Parkway website is down now.

Winchester and Stanton are popular places to stay with Winchester being a little larger with more options. I will try to post more information on lodging soon. Anyone feel free to share your suggestions here.
