A Race to the Finish

Yesterday marked the official close of the on-track stages at Michigan International Speedway and it ended in spectacular fashion! At stake: the $10 million purse for the best vehicles in each class.

For the Alternative Class category with side-by-side seating, it all came down to the last on-track challenge, the Combined Performance and Efficiency test, a timed race designed to serve as the “tie-breaker” should two or more vehicles in a class achieve all competition requirements coming out of Validation testing next month.  

Since Edison2 (Mainstream Class, Virginia) and X-Tracer (Alternative Class- Tandem, Switzerland) have two vehicles remaining in their respective classes with no other competition, there was no need for them to participate in this event. If one or both of their vehicles pass Validation, they win the $5 million and $2.5 million Grand Prize, respectively.
