REDLINE RELAY

NEW EVENTS COMING SOON

Redline Relay is a new road cycling concept from CLASH Endurance.
Born from the experience of racing on legendary tracks, the vibe of team racing and course safety cyclists seek these days. Race on a course built for racing.

This is how it works!

Assemble your crew - Redline Relay uses the NASCAR Pit facilities to create exciting energy before, during and after the race. Each team gets a NASCAR Pit stall assigned to them. You can equip the space behind the pit wall with a 10x10 tent, coolers, stationary trainers- whatever you like. 

Assemble your crew - Teams fall into 1 of 3 categories: 

3-4 Riders

5-6 Riders

7-8 Riders

Teams are allowed only 2 riders on the track at a given time.  Each team member must complete a minimum of one lap. You will get to strategize who completes which laps, how many laps, etc. We are big on total inclusion. Your team composition is at your discretion. In other words, we do not have separate men / women categories in this event and team make-up isn't important - as long as there are 3 to 8 riders who want to have fun as a team. Note that the larger teams will have an advantage as they can exchange more often and have the freshest legs.

NOTE: Register a team captain, and add your team members later

DETAILS

First team to complete the allotted number of laps wins!

Race time limit: dependent on location. See details in the Athlete Guide provided

Start Procedure: 15 minutes prior to race start we will begin with an all-rider neutral familiarization lap. That ends 5 minutes prior to official start time. Teams then reassemble in their pit box and send their first rider (or 2) to the start line. Race starts promptly with a neutral rollout of 1 lap behind the official pace car. At the end of the neutral lap (as you approach the finish line) there will be a green flag drop and the race is on.

Relay Format: The course follows laps of the road track. Each rider from each team must complete a minimum of 1 lap. There can be up to 2 riders from each team on the track at a time. Teams may strategize and choose when to exchange riders and all exchanges happen in the pits. Drafting is always legal, even for lapped riders. The outgoing rider can be held upright within the pit stall by team members for faster exchanges.

Find more details below in our FAQ.

PIT STALLS

Each team will be provided their own garage. The real pit garages used by NASCAR teams during auto-races. You will have the option to equip as you like - trainers, tents, coolers - whatever makes your experience the best. This is where team members will chill between their exhanges. All Exchanges will happen on the track, adjacent to each pit garage.

The coolest thing in cycling since they took the gear shifters off the downtube.

Quite simply, it's a relay race you do with your friends on a NACAR track based in a pit stall with camping available to keep the celebration going. There is a set distance to cover such as 80 miles / 35 laps in Miamiand 52.65 miles / 15 laps in Daytona- the first team individual to reach that distance is declared the winner.

Drafting is legal and aerobars are not.The course follows laps of the road track. Each rider from each team must complete a minimum of 1 lap. Therecan be up to 2 ridersfrom each team on the track at a time. Teams may strategize and choose when to exchange riders and all exchanges happen in the pits.

We wish to create an authentic vibe and a cycling community event different than any other. Riders of all abilities are welcome (from Cat1 to Beginner), but we prefer you've had some experience riding in groups and understand the importance of holding your line and basic cycling etiquette. 2 members of each team allowed on the track at a time. Also, as a new concept we'll not complicate it with too many rules at this time.

Actual Rules:

1. Road Bikes Only
2. Drafting is legal, even for lapped riders.
3. Exchanges: Each exchange must happen within the pit box. The entering rider must fully enter the pit box, BEFORE, the exiting rider can leave the pit box. Teammates can hold the exiting rider up for quicker exchanges as long as all are within the Pit Box.
4. Penalties: There are only a couple of potentials for penalties in this first edition.
a. You enter pit road and do not exchange. This is considered cutting the course and will result in a 20 second penalty. The penalty tent will be located at the end of pit road.
5. Don't be an ass. That's the most important rule. Be welcoming and open minded to all fellow participants. Leave the roadie stuff where it belongs - Wednesday Night Worlds.

YOU DO! This is not just an oval course circuit race. This is the road course at Homestead-Miami Speedway with 8 turns and breaks will be required.

First team to 80 miles (35 Laps) at 17.8 MPG Average can complete under the 4.5 hour time limit. For the lead group going 23 MPH average, we expect the race to take 3.5 hours.

Race time limit: Starts at 1:45pm and ends at 6:37pm (Sunset) 4.5 hours.

2.3mi @ 18mph = 7min, 40sec
2.3mi @ 20mph = 6:54
2.3mi @ 22mph = 6:16
2.3mi @ 25mph = 5min, 31sec
2.3mi @27mph = 5:07
2.3mi @ 30mph = 4:36
2.3mi @ 32mph = 4:19

We will hand out an Abacus to each team - kidding. There will be a counter display on the course and you will be able to track progress on the CLASH Endurance app. When the race reaches thelast lap based on the lead team. there will be a white flag signal. 

We are big on total inclusion. Your team composition is at your discretion. In other words, we do not have separate men / women categories in this event and team make-up isn't important - as long as there are 3 to 8 riders who want to have fun.

We have three team groupings.

  • Team of 3 or 4
  • Team of 5 or 6
  • Team of 7-8

We're all winners. We're outside in the sunshine, riding bicycles on a NASCAR Track, creating memories and having fun. Corny, maybe but true.

The first team to reach the designated number of laps, or see how many laps you can complete in the time limit. Your choice. Winners will be based off the first rider of each team that crosses the finish with the correct mileage and laps in the bank.

Teams that finish in 1st - 3rd place, per division, will receive an awesome team award from racemaps.com 
All participants will receive a finisher medal

This is our first 'test' event. So while you will receive a finisher medal there are no awards beyond bragging rights and we're happy to help you brag on social media - but we're working on all the possibilities for future events. We may have some nice giveaways.

That's the best! Finishing last is an honor in itself. It means you started, and you didn't quit and you took it all in. As Ricky Bobby Said - "If you ain't first you're last!" And that's ok with us - you still had an incredible experience racing in a NASCAR venue with your friends.

15 minutes prior to race start we will begin with an all-rider neutral familiarization lap. That ends 5 minutes prior to official start time. Teams then reassemble in their pit box and send their first rider (or 2) to the start line. Race starts promptly with a neutral rollout of 1 lap behind the official pace car. At the end of the neutral lap (as you approach the finish line) there will be a green flag drop and the race is on.

You can change your team starters up until Wednesday before the race. Please contact us if you have questions at info@clash-usa.com

Yep. Why not? Cycling usually doesn't do that, but we're different. Hang it up, tell the people about yourself!
