12:00 PM - 3:00 PM - Hawkeye Downs Enduro at Hawkeye Downs Speedway & Expo Center

Join friends from across the Midwest for the Interstate Power Systems enduro race presented by Marion Tire Co. and Mt. Vernon Road Tire Co. at Hawkeye Downs Speedway on Sunday, June 30th! Gates open at 11:00am, with racing to begin at 12:00pm. Admission is just $5! Children 8 and under are FREE. Cash and card are accepted at the gate.

Enduro racing (also known as endurance racing) is a very popular and inexpensive type of racing that is fun for anyone! The race starts with a short warm-up lap, and then drivers complete timed laps around the track. These races are designed on our asphalt track at Hawkeye Downs. In recent years, our racing team has designed a road course with obstacles ranging from small jumps to high-speed corners, making it perfect for enthusiasts of all levels of driving skill. While not every enduro race includes a road course, some races during the season will include the added challenge. This enduro road course is fun for the whole family!
