RENO, NV - AUGUST 8th, 2014: ULTRA4 Racing is pleased to announce a return to Reno, NV for the 2014 Nitto Tire National Championship the weekend of October 17th and 18th. More than 90 vehicles in five classes are committed to racing in the championship to be held at the Wild West Motorsports Park. The 2014 ULTRA4 annual awards banquet will be held at the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa immediately following the race.

Dave Cole, owner of ULTRA4 Racing, had this to say about the location, "The goal for the Nitto Tire National Championship was to find a venue where we can offer ULTRA4 drivers and fans both great racing and a location to celebrate the drivers and their accomplishments in style. Racing in Reno and partnering with Wild West Motorsports allows us to accomplish all of that." He went on to say, "We start our season every year in the harsh conditions of Johnson Valley at the Griffin King of The Hammers, to finish the season at a luxury hotel like the Atlantis is a great way to honor the efforts of our drivers, their families and teams."

The Wild West Motorsports Park is located just 10 minutes from downtown Reno. The park features a course that combines technical rock obstacles with short course racing, making it an ideal venue to showcase the 4 wheel-drive capabilities of all the ULTRA4 classes. Spectators will have the opportunity to see the best racing action from the comfort of grand stands.

Got room on the couch? I don't want to have to drive that whole way on the day of the event.

If you end up going, I'll loan you my Ultra 4 racing license, fire suit and helmet.....but the rest is up to you to sneak into the copilot seat and hope Jim is not already occupying :icon_crazy:
