Greetings BRP racers, fans, friends & family

Welcome to the month of June! No, your eyes are not deceiving you, that is a picture of a limo racing here at the track! Why you ask? This month marks the annual 24 Hours of Lemons event. It is a staff favorite for us here at BRP and easily unlike anything you have ever seen before. If you haven't seen it, you need to come out and check it out. Highlights for the 24 Hours of Lemons event can be found below along with a few other featured events for the month. For a full list of all upcoming events, be sure to check it out on our website !

 

We can't switch to June without forgetting about the month of May. Another jam packed month started out with a big Cal Club double Majors event and ended with a pit stop for the Gumball 3000 Rally. The weekends are not the only place that have exciting events here at BRP! This year's Gumball 3000 started in Stockholm Sweden and ended in Las Vegas with stops in Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Reno, San Francisco and Los Angeles. On the journey from SF to LA, rally participants had a chance to drive their exotic cars on the track as well as turn laps in Dodge Vipers and Hell Cat Challengers! How exotic were the cars? Over $200 million worth of Ferraris, McLarens, Porsches and others! Check out our Facebook page for some photos.

 

We hope to see YOU out here at Buttonwillow Raceway soon!
