The event supports The Arc Chemung-Schuyler, with proceeds directed to programs for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism in the local community. The 2026 edition is presented as the 13th year of the event.
The event offers multiple course options on the motor racing facility:
- 3.4 miles full lap of the WGI race track, timed.
- 6.8 miles two laps of the WGI race track, timed and open to participants age 13 and older.
