He's the most dominant driver in the history of our events. He went out and raced a family sedan in order to give others a little glimmer of hope. He swept the entire 2025 season. Now for our last ever (not last of the year.....last ever) autocross, he's back in the hot seat one final time.

Want to see what you're up against? Go watch him compete at the Lime Rock Autocross Invitational Shootout on the 10th, and then come try to claim his throne at the Autumn Apex 4.0.

After years of bringing the community together at the track, we’re ready to announce the final two GPE Racing Events.

On October 16th, we’ll kick things off with the Fall Finale, followed by Autumn Apex 4.0 on October 17th.

These will be the last two racing events we host under the GPE banner, and we want to finish our racing events the same way we started them: with cool cars, great people, and a fun day of racing at Lime Rock Park!

If you’ve raced with us before, come out for one last event. If you’ve been meaning to make it to one, this is your last chance!

This 6th Gen Camaro SS 1LE time attack car was recently brought to us for a full MCS coilover setup, camber plate install, wheel studs, a new square bridgestone RE71RZ setup, and some other small track mods, as well as one of our full competition setups. Can’t wait to see what this thing can do once it’s back on track!

Last friday marked the Summer Shootout 1.0, our first ever "hotlap challenge" event. 19 cars took to the FCP Euro Proving Grounds Super Circuit, and when it was all said and done, Jeff Bakken laid down a blisteringly fast time of 41.422 to take the overall win and $1000 cash, with Andrew Hiro taking home 2nd place with a 41.859 and Josh Lipman in 3rd with a 41.959 (all on 200TW street tires).

In addition to our competition, we also had a session dedicated to qualifying for the Lime Rock Top 30 Autocross Invitational Shootout, where as it stands, we had 7 cars break into the top 30 standings, including 3 new top 5 overall times set.

As always Jake Allen Photography did an incredible job capturing the day, and photos are now available at the link in the comments!

Another C6 Z06 has rolled into GPE to get track ready!

This car already packs a seriously rowdy, high compression, solid roller LS7. Now it’s time for the chassis and braking system to match that level of performance.

We’re starting with a full set of spherical bearings before putting the car through our Full Track Setup package. Every aspect of the suspension will be optimized to maximize grip, balance, and driver confidence on Hoosier slicks, giving the owner a car that’s ready to perform at the limit.

Whether you’re looking for a complete track build, suspension setup, performance fabrication, or race prep, GPE has the engineers, technicians, and fabricators to help you get the most out of your car.

One Lap. No Excuses.

Join us on June 26th for an all-out Hotlap battle on the FCP Euro Proving Grounds Super Circuit, where outright speed takes the win and $1,000 cash is on the line in every class.

The first of our two all-new Hotlap Challenge events, Summer Shootout 1.0 brings a new format to GPE Racing Events. Unlike our Autocross Trilogy, which utilizes a traditional standing-start autocross format, competitors will take to the track in a true time attack style event. Drivers will run multiple timed sessions throughout the day, with the fastest lap in each class claiming victory.

Classing
• Street Tire Class – 200TW tires and higher
• Competition Tire Class – Under 200TW tires, including R-compounds and slicks

To maintain competitive parity, open-wheel cars, karts, prototypes, and similar purpose-built race vehicles are not eligible for prize payouts.

$1,000 Cash Prize Per Class
Each class winner will take home a $1,000 cash prize, making this one of the largest grassroots motorsports payouts in the region.

Qualify for the Lime Rock Top 30 Shootout
This event also serves as a qualifier for the Lime Rock Top 30 Autocross Invitational Shootout (AXIS).

Half-Day Entries Available
Due to popular demand, half-day entry options are now available for competitors!

We are incredibly excited to introduce this new format and can't wait to see who rises to the top and takes home one of the biggest cash prizes in grassroots motorsports.
