2024 NASA Champions Rise to the Top at Utah Motorsports Complex

Sept. 9, 2024, Salt Lake City — Earning a National Championship takes perseverance, some luck and waking up before dawn to make sure the racecar is ready. The racers have run practice sessions, a qualifier and qualifying race culminating Sunday in the Championships. Along the way they had to overcome heat and altitude to finish on the podium and enjoy a champagne shower.

Eighteen racing drivers were crowned as 2024 NASA National Championships. In reality, every team that competed at the Utah Motorsports Complex should take a victory lap.

Friday Qualifying Shapes the Field at 2024 NASA Championships

Friday Qualifying Shapes the Field at 2024 NASA Championships

The morning session is usually the best opportunity to set a fast time. Afternoon sessions give drivers the opportunity to put all their added seat time to good use, but temperatures in the high 80s this afternoon in the Tooele Valley can diminish engine power and decrease the amount of grip on the racing surface. Drivers who lay down a scorcher of a lap in the morning usually set themselves up to be in the best grid position possible. (more…)
