Maryland International Raceway
has finally been granted
permission by the St. Mary’s
County Health Department to open
and we thank them for working
with us. XDA will officially
kick off the season with the
FuelTech Superbike Showdown at
MDIR on June 19 – 21!
This opening comes with strict
guidelines and limitations that
must be followed to remain open.
While everyone (including us) is
so ready to get back to racing,
we must not let our guard down
and we must follow the
guidelines that we know all too
well: social distancing, face
masks (indoors or when social
distancing is not achievable
outdoors), hand
washing/sanitizing and good old
common sense.
For now, we will only be open to
racers, their family, crew and
staff. Spectators are currently
not permitted. Please review the
guidelines below and be prepared
to follow them. We have worked
too hard to get the track back
open to have it shut down again
because we are not abiding by
the guidelines. If you are an
individual that doesn’t agree
with any of these guidelines of
social distancing, face masks
where required, etc, we respect
your point of view but we ask
that you not attend events until
all the restrictions are lifted.
• Events will be
open to
participants, their
family and crew
only, with a maximum
of 10 people total
(including driver)
on any race team.
• No spectators will
be permitted. Crew
and family must
enter with the
participant or leave
names at the gate
for a late
arriving family or
crew member.
• All race trailers,
both open and
enclosed, must be
parked in
every-other 12’ pit
space. That way, a
trailer is taking up
one 12’ space and
there is an empty
12’ space for race
vehicle, family and
crew beside it. No
trailers can be
parked side-by-side.
This will help
ensure social
distancing.
• All additional
vehicles that come
into the pits must
park in front of the
race car in your pit
area or in the
Pitside parking lot…
NO EXCEPTIONS.
• All staff and
participants will be
wearing masks in any
indoor structures,
restrooms, tower,
etc. and outdoors
anywhere proper
social distancing is
not achievable.
Masks will not be
required outdoors
with proper social
distancing, but they
are recommended.
• Hand
washing/sanitizing
must be done on a
regular basis.
• The tower will
have restricted
access and will be
limited to essential
staff only.
• The crews will be
limited on the
starting line and
front of the staging
lanes, with social
distancing extremely
enforced. Our
security staff and
starting line staff
will closely monitor
this area to prevent
unauthorized
gathering.
• When not racing,
racers are to abide
by social distancing
requirements. Racers
and crew members
will be required to
stay within their
own pit areas when
not racing.
• Each group must
have adequate PPE
for each crew member
and must wear masks
when required. All
groups will be
required to acquire
their own PPE and
bring it with them
to the track.
• Our restrooms are
equipped with hands
free fixtures.
Restrooms will be
cleaned, stocked and
sanitized throughout
the day or evening.
All Pitside portlets
will be moved and
taken out of
service.
• Concessions will
be open, and lines
will be marked for
proper social
distancing.
Concession stand
will follow all
guidelines in place
for local food
service businesses.
We will be open with
a limited menu of
food items that must
be consumed within
your pit area or in
the grandstands with
proper social
distancing but not
in front of our
concession area.

We are excited about re-opening
the track and are looking
forward to seeing everyone
again.
