THE BIG ONE 2023

Post by REAR » Mon Feb 20, 2023 6:32 am

The 23rd. annual running of THE BIG ONE will once again take place on Labor Day weekend Saturday September 2nd. and Sunday September 3rd. at Fremont Raceway Park in Fremont Ohio. This years event will mark our 23rd. year as the longest continual running Historical Karting event in the world.

The weekend activities start off on Friday September the 1st. with early move-in and pit set up and the start of the weekend long swap meet. NO kart will be run on Friday however.

More details will come as we get closer to the event date so start making your plans now and keep your eyes open for further updates.

Mark your calenders now for the most fun weekend in all of Karting.

Mike,

Hope you guys can make it over, likewise I'm hoping to make Broadhead. Talked to a few guys over that way but their kind of on the fence with the 'racing' stuff.

The Historic class isn't really racing. We line up wherever, roll out for a quick warm up around the starting oval while everyone gets their karts running and then they green flag us and leave us alone for our 6 or 8 laps - or until everyone gets tired and pulls in! No awards no losers. Just drive or find someone close to your speed and have fun. Thursday is open practice so plenty of open track time. The kart show on the front straight is awesome and there's a nice dinner on the patio Friday night plus beer and wine tasting.

We let the racers have their classes and the non-racers have the historic class. Even the non-historic rear classes are pretty laid back. Plenty of room on the track for everyone. Hope you guys can make it!
