Think you can build a project car that’s faster than our LS-swapped 350Z, V6 endurance race Miata or Garage Rescue Miata? Now’s your chance to prove it, as all three have entered to compete in the $2000 Challenge Presented by Tire Rack.
What is the $2000 Challenge? It’s our automotive festival celebrating autocross, drag racing and ingenuity, set for October 22-23 at Gainesville Raceway in Gainesville, Florida.
Builds from each end of the budget spectrum—from a strict $2000 limit to $1,000,000 supercars—are welcome to compete across three events to see if money really equals speed. Nearly $10,000 in prizes have been announced across the various events and classes.
As of this morning, more than 39 cars have already registered.
Spectators are welcome, and trackside camping has been added for 2022.

The $2000 Challenge is presented by Tire Rack, in association with CRC Industries, Summit Racing and Miller Electric, with trophies from Lamin-x, TrakkRats, CravenSpeed and ACI Automotive.
