Come out and see the World’s fastest PWC racers at an amazing venue, which also boasts sea plane rides, the Dora Queen paddle boat, and several local hotspots, all withing walking distance from the event site. There will be plenty of racing, but also, food vendors, music, live announcing, and a great family atmosphere. VIP Parking will be available for an additional fee and weekend pit passes are $20, unless you have a Lake County ID, then admission is free. Spectators are encouraged to bring their own seating as we will not have bleachers because of social-distancing.
