Thanks to Schomp BMW & MINI for stepping up again this year to sponsor the ProAm race. Like last year, there will be 5 BMWs and 5 MINIs.
The Pro lineup so far includes returning drivers Randy Pobst, Robby Unser and Paul Gerrard, and new this year, Andy Pilgrim. All are very excited to participate in our annual charity event and help us raise some serious money for pediatric cancer research! In fact, many of the Pro drivers will be at the track the whole week-end, giving lunch rides, donating items for auction, and signing autographs! Don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity to hang out with this fantastic group of Pros!
Now that we know who the Pros are, how will the RMVR members be selected for the ProAm race?
- This unique opportunity will be offered to the 10 RMVR drivers who are registered for the RAKC event and who raise the most funds to benefit our charity partner, The Morgan Adams Foundation.
- For purposes of determining the top 10 RMVR drivers, the deadline for tabulating fundraising totals was Wednesday, July 26th at 6:00 p.m. MDT..
- A random drawing will determine Pro/RMVR driver pairings and Schomp car assignments.
And the RMVR driver grid is:

How will the ProAm race work?
- This race will be a 45-minute race.
- There will be a mandatory, timed 5-minute pit stop in the hot-lane to change drivers. Pits will open 15 minutes into the race and close 30 minutes into the race. Each team must change drivers during this pit window.
- Each ProAm team will determine their own strategy; who races first and how long to drive into the pit window.
- Grid position will be determined by the RMVR driver’s fundraising total, with the highest fundraiser at the pole position.
