Northstar Speed Summit is a turbocharged motorsports rodeo for imports and sport compact cars at BIR. It features drifting, drag racing, autocross, roll racing and open lapping on the road course. With a burnout competition following Saturday’s drag racing and night drift sessions, NORTHSTAR SPEED SUMMIT offers a full weekend of racing activities.

Drifting The fan favorite is the drifting exhibition, where drivers navigate through a course mostly in controlled (or uncontrolled, in some cases) skids. It’s an amazing display of car control – and they make it look so easy!

?Autocross is similar in that drivers are timed as they maneuver through a cone-lined course, but they’re slower and more controlled without the skidding.

?Drag Strip Action
