Special Events

Note: As we take the reins of NASTAR, we've made the difficult decision to pause the National Championships for this season. While the Nationals have been a cherished event, they cater to a small fraction of the NASTAR community (less than 1%). Our priority is to refocus our efforts on the broader NASTAR community, benefiting 100% of the racers and enhancing the experience at the resort level. This approach allows us to invest more resources into creating a more inclusive and engaging experience for all participants.
