UMI Motorsports Park will once again host the top autocross and Pro-Touring cars and drivers in the nation for our 6th annual King of the Mountain race. 125 cars will battle for two days for their spot in the 48 car-shootout under the lights. The winner of the shootout will become the 2024 King of the Mountain.

The UMIMP Driver Experience

During this two day autocross event, drivers can enjoy the full UMI Motorsports Park atmosphere. Starting from Thursday registration, drivers can pick up their complementary slice of pizza and event tee. Between the morning and afternoon course runs, drivers are offered complementary lunches. On Friday night, drivers and their families are welcome to gather at the community pavilion and enjoy musical entertainment and lawn games. If a driver doesn’t make the shoot-out they win admittance to view the Saturday Night Shoot-out from the VIP section.

The fun doesn’t have to stop there! There are plenty of lodging options on the park’s campus so you can spend the whole weekend at the park.

Notice: KOTM co-driver rule change for 2025

 

Starting for the 2025 King for the Mountain, we will no longer be allowing co-drivers in the shootout. Co-drivers may still compete in qualifying, but due to the fairness of run distribution, one co-driver MUST be pre-selected as shootout eligible. The non-eligible driver will be able to compete in qualifying only. The co-driver eligibility status may be selected at registration, or before the event. Once the event starts, co-driver eligibility cannot be changed.

The shootout eligible driver will run qualifying with the class the car is classed in. The non-eligible driver will run in a different class.
