SUMMARY:Nevada Open Road Challenge 2025
DESCRIPTION:Nevada Open Road Challenge 2025\nFor the past three decades\, driving enthusiasts from around the world have gathered on the third Sunday of May in the Nevada high desert for the one of the truly most unique automotive events. Traverse 90 to 120 miles of closed\, two-lane public highway\, comprised of long fast straights\, sweeping corners\, blind dips\, even carving through a twisty canyon. The current course record stands at 219.6430 mph average speed\, as recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records. The best part is\, if you’ve got the nerve\, a little cash\, and a fast ride\, you too can join them to run as fast as you can\, legally\, down a public highway. \nThis event in May is a two-way event\, totaling 119.78 miles (59.89 each way)\, with a weekend packed full of gearhead activities\, and an awards banquet after-party held in our charming\, rustic mining town of Ely\, Nevada. Registration packet pickup will be held in Ely\, Nevada. \nThe Silver State Classic Challenge\, Inc. is a non-profit corporation with a dedicated volunteer Board of Directors and staff who annually host the Nevada Open Road Challenge (NORC) and Silver State Classic Challenge (SSCC) Open Road Racing events on a closed section of Nevada State Highway 318\, renamed by the Nevada Department of Transportation as the Silver State Classic Challenge Highway. \nSSCC events are based on time\, speed\, and distance. Classes begin at 95 mph\, and increase in 5 mph increments up through the 160 mph class\, with a 170 mph\, 180 mph\, and an Unlimited\, top speed class. Vehicles start one at a time\, in one minute intervals against a GPS timing clock\, and attempt to break the beam at the finish line as close as possible to their speed class target time. First\, Second and Third place trophies are awarded to the Driver and Navigator/Co-driver in each class\, based on most accurate elapsed time targets achieved\, as measured by SSCC timing equipment. Trophies are also awarded to drivers of our companion One-Mile and Half-Mile Shootout events\, both held on race weekends in conjunction with our Open Road Racing events. \nAll first-time SSCC participants are considered rookies\, and may enter classes ranging from 95 mph up to 110 mph\, determined by their vehicle capabilities and safety equipment\, and each Driver and Navigator/Co-Driver’s comfort level. All rookies must also attend an SSCC rookie driver school. Those with documented Open Road Racing or other equivalent racing experience\, or those who hold racing licenses from select sanctioned racing bodies\, may be eligible to obtain a waiver from rookie school. \nAll Details and Qualifications About This Event Can Be Found HERE!\nDiscover More of What White Pine County Offers HERE!

SUMMARY:NNRY Star Train
DESCRIPTION:For those of you who aren’t fortunate enough to live up here in the Rural Inter-Mountain West\, you are missing our breathtakingly beautiful night sky.   For those of you who live in these parts\, you may not have taken the time lately to stop and gaze at the Heavens.  Either way\, plan a special night out with those beautiful stars of ours.  This area has one of the darkest skies in the lower 48 states which provides the setting for our wonderful night skies\, which is why there is the Nevada Northern Railway Star Train. \nNevada Northern Railway’s Star Train pulls out of Ely on selected Summer evenings with the Dark Rangers of Great Basin National Park aboard.  These rangers love the night sky as much as we all do\, but they probably know a whole lot more about stars than all of us put together.  They will guide us on our journey to find interesting things up in the Heavens on this journey. We will stop the train away from town to take full advantage of the dark night skies.  The National Park Service Rangers will have  special telescopes set up for viewing the night sky\, and will be there to tell us all about it. \nWatch a video of the experience as covered on the CBS This Morning Show \nWhat to expect:\n\nOur trains feature on-board restroom\, wheelchair accessibility\, and snacks and beverages available for purchase.\nThe Star Trains are pulled by one of our vintage diesel locomotives\, and leave around sunset\, so you will have a chance to see the sun as it sinks down over the Steptoe Valley.   It is a great time of day to admire the rural Intermountain West at its best.\nIt is usually clear up here at night\, but the train will still operate and the Park Rangers will still be on-board with an astronomy show-and-tell regardless of what Mother Nature dishes up.\nWould you also like to take the trip up toward the old Ruth Mining District on a train pulled by a steam locomotive?  Who wouldn’t?  We also have a steam-powered excursion train departing at 4:30 pm on Friday afternoons\, and another one at 1:00 pm on Saturday.  During the check-out process you can add a Four-Day pass at a reduced rate to go on additional train rides while you are here.\nNote that the trains depart from and return to Ely\, NV with National Park Service Rangers on board.  The train does not travel into or from Great Basin National Park.  Ely is the closest town to Great Basin National Park (1h west)\, so it makes a logical hopping-off point for an extended visit to the Park.  Don’t miss the opportunity to explore the rest of the National Park\, including Lehman Caves.\n\nLearn more about the Railway by clicking HERE!
