“W.E. ROCK Donner Ski Ranch, no better phrase can be heard when discussing rock crawling competition areas…
What does it mean to those that have never experienced it?
How about 15-20* cooler temps than the Sacramento Valley?
How about the coolest rock formations, with some of the craziest lines?
How about the greatest scenery or setting in rock crawling?
How about a great list of Unlimited competitors?
How about the largest pro classes, both Unlimited and Pro Mod in years?
How about a great list of Sportsman competitors?
How about live music on Saturday evening?
How about a bar?
How about good food?
So how about it?… What else could you possibly need?…!!!” Rich Klein, CEO/President of WE Rock Events said of this weekend.

Professional Rock Crawling is one of the most intricate sports in the motorsports arena. It is technical, mechanical and filled with action. The rock courses are setup where spectators can bring their chairs and be able to see multiple courses running at the same time. The two-day format includes 4 courses of competition on Saturday and another 4 courses on Sunday, with a final shootout on Sunday night, which usually determines the final finishing positions! The winner will be determined by the driver that has the least amount of points at the end of the weekend, similar to golf.
