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.

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.
