About this event
IIRA Race Day: January 31st
IIRA's Saturday events include both wheel to wheel racing as well as an open track day. Throughout the day, the course will be used for alternating wheel to wheel and open track sessions in the afternoon. All wheel to wheel entries will be allowed on course during afternoon open track sessions.
