Thursday Night Grand Prix Tournament
Our monthly Grand Prix Tournament races take place on the first or the second Thursday of each month. Please check below for the date of this months tournament.
Every driver competes in a minimum of 2 races, each race includes a combined practice and the qualifying session followed by a race.
The grid for each race is determined using the Pill Draw system that is common in circle track racing where each driver pics a ball out of a bucket, the number on that ball determines which race you are in and who your fellow competitors are.
Points are awarded for each drivers finishing position, Pro/Am drivers (a racer who has won a previous Tournament) points are handicapped, Novice drivers (racer who has not won a previous tournament) are awarded full points. After 2 races all driver points are added, the 8 racers with the highest point totals go in to the Final race. The racer with the highest points total after the Final race is the night's winner.
The winner, second place and third place will be awarded a purse consisting of cash and prizes.
All tournaments will be "blind", the track will be announced in advance but the cars being raced will not be announced until the Drivers Meeting. Additionally, all racers will compete in the same make and model of car.
Racers taking part in our monthly GP Tournament can practice the track in the days leading up to the race for only $8.

Thursday, November 12th
For November we are racing at Europe's most popular tracks, the Barcelona-Catalunya National Circuit. Long straightaways, big elevation changes with a traditional flow and rhythm. This is a fast track with multiple passing zones but it is short, just shy of being 2 miles in length. Racers will have a fight on their hands as working through traffic is going to be the key to winning.
Time Attack Challenge
Each month we host a Time Attack Challenge, every driver must drive the same car at the same track. The driver who sets the fastest lap by the end of the month wins a $100 prize package. Drivers are broke down into two classes, Novice for racers who have not won previously and Pro/Am for racers who have won before.
November Time Attack Challenge
Some of the closest, wildest and most entertaining racing happens in Australia with the V8 Supercar series. That's what we are racing, the Adelaide street circuit in the V8 Supercars. These are brutal cars, there is no room for error and on this crazy street track, if you get it wrong, you are going to pay for it. There is nom room for mistakes. Yet to be fast and have a shot at winning you will have to take chances and drive right on the line of control and disaster.
Endurance Racing
Throughout the year we will host a number of Endurance Races. These races are 3 hours in length and have a 45 minute qualifying session prior to the race. Racers can drive the entire race by themselves or they can enter as a team and do driver changes throughout the race. In these races we do use tire wear and fuel consumption meaning the pit stops are required.
- Breakfast is served to all racers prior to the race.
- All racers receive SWAG as part of their entry.
- Top 3 finishing drivers/team win cash and prizes.
- Drivers/Teams pick the sim chassis they want to use based on the order of preregistration.

Beat the Pro - Lap Masters
How do you compare to a real professional racer? Now you can find out!
Each month we reach out to our professional race driver friends to see who wants to compete against you, you racers at YGP Motorsports. We give them a car and track to drive with the goal of setting their fastest lap. Anyone that beats their lap time in that same same car will win a prize that is related to their personal racing career like driver/team SWAG, parts off their race car, replica diecast cars, etc.
