NPRP OPEN
DITCHBANGER PRACTICES

We are hosting dedicated NPRP Ditchbanger practice sessions. Whether you’re a current Ditchbanger racer, brand new to the series, or just thinking about getting started, this is your chance to hit the track, get comfortable, and sharpen your skills in a fun, low-pressure environment.

HOW IT WORKS

STEP 1: PURCHASE YOUR PASS ONLINE OR AT THE TRACK

1. Daily practice passes can be purchased online or at the track.

PRACTICE PASS PRICING: 

120's, 200's & Youth/Junior: $50  

ALL OTHERS: $75

STEP 2: CHECK-IN BEFORE PRACTICING 

1. Come to the registration cabin to check in & pay BEFORE getting on the track. 

2. Receive a practice pass sticker for the day. 

(Riders will receive a sticker that corresponds with the segment they will practice in) 

STEP 3: REVIEW THE PRACTICE ORDER  

1. Each practice segment will get 15 minutes on the track. We will go through each segment and then restart with the first. 

2. Please only practice with the segment you are assigned; this is to ensure our track remains safe. 

3. There will be occasional grooming breaks as needed, these will be announced over the speakers. 

STANDARD PRACTICE SEGMENTS & ORDER:

Coming soon!

Please note*

- Practice segments may change; if the practice schedule changes, it will be posted. 

- If you participate in more than one class in the same segment and run different sleds in each class, please let our crew know during check in & they will direct you. 

STEP 4: GET READY TO PRACTICE   

1. Enter the track through the staging/starting area. Exit the track through the track exit near the tech shack. 

2. ALL proper riding gear MUST be worn at all times to practice.

3. Off-track & re-entry rules must be adhered to (look up track before re-entering, always re-enter in a safe manner) 

4. Slow riders must maintain their line. 

5. If you do not adhere to the general Ditchbanger rules, you will be given ONE warning. If you continue not to follow the rules you will be removed from the track and will not be allowed to continue practicing with no refund. 

IMPORTANT: IF YOU ARE ON THE TRACK WITH NO PRACTICE STICKER OR YOU FAILED TO CHECK IN FOR THE DAY, YOU WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE THE FACILITY.
