2024 JConcepts INS Winter Indoor Nationals Report

This past weekend the JConcepts Travel Team headed to Trackside Hobbies and Raceway for the 2024 INS Winter Indoor Nationals. This was the first round of the 5 round 2024 INS series and was completely sold out right at 330 entries.

Most of the top United States drivers joined in on the action with the likes of Rivkin, Champlin, Tollard, Rinderknecht, Cavalieri, Lemieux, Batta, Horne and others. The tight and undulating layout gave drivers fits all weekend and only the best would come out on top.
