Willow Springs Kart Track Overnight Parking and Camping Trailer parking and overnight camping will be available at no cost, starting Thursday night, and it will all be first come-first serve.
Willow Kart track gates will be open 3pm-10pm Thursday, 6:00am-10pm Friday, 6:30am-10pm Saturday, and 6:30am-noon Sunday. We will not be running managed or reserved Pit-Spaces at this event. Spectator Tickets Normally, 1 and 2 day spectator passes are required -- and are available through the online store and at the track throughout each event. Prices are $15 for a 1-day pass and $20 for a 2-day pass. Kids 5 and under are FREE, but everyone must sign an insurance waiver. HOWEVER: Willow Springs charges all attendees a $10 gate fee at the front entrance. Spectators will NOT have to purchase a separate pit pass from PKC at this event, as the gate fee covers their insurance wristband. Only mechanics and crew members that want access to the HOT PIT area of the track need to purchase PKC pit passes, in addition to paying the Willow Springs gate fee. Course Map For This Event NOTE: ProKart Challenge will be running this event -- as well as the Friday practice day – in the normal CCW direction.  Pit Vehicles Although PKC prefers to disallow the use of motorized vehicles in order to avoid unnecessary accidents in the pits, Willow Springs does allow motorized vehicles on their kart track premises. However, PKC reserves the right to confiscate any vehicles, motorized or otherwise, that are being unsafely used anywhere on the kart track premises. Pets on Premises Willow Springs allows pets on premises, as long as they are kept on a leash.
