GRIDLIFE’s 2024 Season Sees Nationwide Expansion, New West Coast Championship, and a Return to Familiar Facilities

GRIDLIFE’s motorsports calendar features both familiar and new venues for its 2024 season. GRIDLIFE’s competition series, the NOS Energy TrackBattle Championship and GRIDLIFE Touring Cup, see continued nationwide expansion, notably to ThunderHill Raceway Park as part of an all-new West-Coast Championship. 

The Festival Tour season, with music, a live broadcast, a car concours, and more, kicks off in Kershaw, South Carolina, with a return to Carolina Motorsports Park on April 12-14, 2024. Just two weeks later, Willow Springs International Raceway hosts the first Club Circuit event of the year on the Big Willow Circuit, April 27-28. GRIDLIFE Touring Cup will also race here for the first time. 


In May, The Rev-Up, a Club Circuit event preceding the Festival Tour’s GRIDLIFE Festival, roars into South Haven, Michigan, on May 18-19. This event features HPDE and the NOS Energy TrackBattle Championship. A few weeks later, GRIDLIFE Festival returns for an eleventh year on June 7-9, with music, drifting, GLTC, time attack, vendors, and much more in a three-day weekend on some of the longest days of the summer. 


Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course has long held some of the fiercest on-track battles; GRIDLIFE’s annual stop here shifts to June 28-30 for a three-day Club Circuit event. This event will also count as a points round for the North American Time Attack championship in conjunction with Global Time Attack and the SCCA.


 In July, GRIDLIFE heads up to America’s National Park at Speed at Road America, in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, for an all-new Festival Tour stop. This new festival on July 26-28, will offer all of the spectacles that are typical of a major GRIDLIFE event, but with a fast, classic, American road course as the backdrop.

Road America held the season finale for GRIDLIFE competition for several seasons; it returns as a mid-summer festival in 2024.

The fan-favorite Circuit Legends aims to capture the magic of late tuner culture for a third year in a row at the picturesque Lime Rock Park on August 16-18. The quiet hills of Lakeville, Connecticut, come alive with the sights and sounds of wheel-to-wheel competition, time attack, drift, and a Legends Concours as the fourth stop on the 2024 Festival Tour.



In September, Autobahn Country Club in Joliet, Illinois, hosts GRIDLIFE Chicagoland, September 14-15. This Club Circuit event has been a hotspot for competition, and with the new September date, hopefully less of a hotspot for the weather. This round will also count as a North American Time Attack points round.




GRIDLIFE Laguna returns for a second year after a successful launch last October. WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca will play host to GRIDLIFE once again, with music, drift, GLTC, time attack, and the rest of the festival entertainment September 27-29.

Like something out of a video game - WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca will host drift, along with Time Attack and GLTC, again in 2024.

After hosting a SuperGrid Grand Prix Event in 2022, Pittsburgh International Race Complex rejoins the GRIDLIFE calendar as a Club Circuit event in 2024, October 11-13, serving as the season finale for the points season for the NOS Energy TrackBattle Championship and GRIDLIFE Touring Cup. ThunderHill Raceway Park hosts the final Club Circuit event of 2024 November 16-17. For the first time, GRIDLIFE will compete on the renowned California road course’s East Course, with points tallies awarded towards the 2025 National Championship and the 2024 West Coast Championship.
