Summer Camp
June 10-14, 2026
Summer Camp 2025 was huge - 100+ cars on track, 150+ on the tours and hundreds of people at our shop. Registration for 2026 will open in the spring.
Back in 1998, Bill Cardell threw a BBQ to thank local Flyin' Miata customers for their business. Over the years, the event grew and grew. We've had track days, dyno runs, ridealongs, autocrosses, multi-day tours, scenic drives, technical seminars, product reveals, special guests, prototype Miatas, Q&A sessions, car shows - and of course, food. But the one constant was the purpose, to thank our customers. We've had people come from all over the world to attend along with various special guests.
For those who can't make the drive to our world HQ, we'll have frequent webcasts that will let you take part in the talks.
Seminar livestream links
We'll have three track days in 2026. Due to the nature of our track and how we run our events, roll bars are not required.

Other than the track, participants can expect fun local drives, gorgeous scenery, tech seminars, new product demos, interesting people, good food, a car show and a chance to just simply hang out.

Details on where to stay
Unfortunately, there is very little camping available due to the pressures on our parking lot. We recommend tents and small trailers at most. There are no hookups available. The camping area is between the buildings on our lot.

7:00 pm - sunset drive over the Colorado National Monument (map). Meet at the Dinosaur Museum in Fruita (550 Jurassic Ct, Fruita, CO 81521)*. Note, there is an entry fee into the Monument. You can buy a pass in advance if you want to speed up the line. The pass is good for a week. You can also use an "America The Beautiful" annual pass for entrance - they're a great deal if you want to visit other parks. They're also free for seniors, veterans, active military and fourth graders.
This drive will be split into two groups, with the first one leaving at 7:00 and the second at 7:30. This is due to the popularity of the drive.
