The 2026 season at Maryland International Raceway just
got a massive shot of adrenaline. We are thrilled to
announce that the East Coast Index Series is officially
joining the party for four high-stakes weekends this
season!
The series is designed to bring the baddest
street-appearing, full-bodied machines together to
battle for BIG payouts. Whether you’re a 10.00 Index
regular, an 8.50 hitter, or an Ultra Street warrior,
it’s time to strip the electronics and get back to
basics. If you can handle a .400 Pro Tree without a
delay box, we have a class for you.
