Area 27 is a world class circuit that offers 16 turns on 4.83 km of paved glory and is located only 5 minutes east of Oliver, BC.
This event is open to a variety of experienced drivers, however prior Area 27 track experience is required before attending this event. . If this is your first event at Area 27, please sign up on the First Timer group.

Timing Transponders:
We are offering up to 40 drivers a chance to have an official transponder in their car while on track. While this event will NOT be a competitive Time Trials event we have an opportunity to operate similarly to our typical Time Trials events. We will grid cars from fastest to slowest using a traditional 20 minute session. This format will increase the chances of a uninterrupted lap. Based on your lap times, Speedy Goat will adjust the run groups throughout the day to better match run groups.

Vehicle Numbers
We know a few drivers would like to secure their vehicle number for all events. For this reason we would like to give you the option of reserving a number for the 2025 year! Those who purchase a number will have that number for all events in 2025 (if someone has a number in the event and you pay to reserve it after the fact, you will now be given that number and the other driver will be asked to select a new one).
To reserve your number, or purchase vehicle decals visit the below page after you register:
