The Hard Enduro Rhythm Knockout, taking place near Cedar City, Utah and hosted by the Southern Nevada Jackrabbits Motorcycle Club of Las Vegas, was already challenging last year. The 2024 version was twice as long and added several fiendish new obstacles. It also became an official event for the Larry H. Miller Utah Summer Games.

Over September 5th – 8th, the Utah Motorsports Campus (UMC) hosted the National Auto Sport Association (NASA) National Championship races. That was a huge treat for local drivers and fans after an 11 year break. With the championships at home this year, lots of Utah drivers competed. Many did well against teams from all over the country. 

Where a typical National Auto Sports Association (NASA) race is up to 30 minutes, the July 27th Sunchaser Enduro was twelve times longer. It’s harder on drivetrains and on consumables like tires and brakes. You can actually see brakes glowing red, when it gets dark, on the faster cars. 28 cars started, but only 17 finished, this premier Utah motorsport event.
