"THE EVENTS WHERE
YOU CAN DO MORE
THAN JUST PARK YOUR CAR."

MPACT Shakedown is a performance-driven motorsports experience built to extend the MPACT standard beyond a single platform.

Designed for premium performance vehicles and enthusiasts who value execution, structure, and community, Shakedown creates a space where drivers can engage their cars, connect with like-minded individuals, and experience the same level of quality that defines every MPACT event.

Whether you’re testing a new setup, refining a build, or simply bringing your car out to be driven as intended, Shakedown is where performance comes to life.

This is what we consider our season opener and summer kickoff event — where cars come out of hibernation and the energy of the year truly begins — open to all premium, performance-focused platforms.

About MPACT Shakedown

Held at Pocono Raceway, MPACT Shakedown delivers the same professionally executed motorsports experiences found at the MPACT Motorsports Festival while intentionally broadening participation across premium performance platforms. Designed for enthusiasts who value build quality, performance, and execution, Shakedown provides an environment where drivers can engage their vehicles through meaningful on-track activity in a controlled, mature setting.

While MPACT’s foundation remains rooted in the BMW performance community, Shakedown was created to include owners of other premium high-end performance vehicles—across European, JDM, Exotic, and select domestic platforms—a comparable event experience built around the same principles of quality, organization, and community.

Hey let's face it, we just wanted to host another great event at Pocono and thought we would open it up to include some other competition for our loyal BMW clientele.

*Designed for well-built, performance-oriented vehicles and drivers who value structure and execution.

Host Venue
Pocono Raceway

Pocono Raceway provides a world-class motorsports setting for the MPACT Motorsports Festival. Centrally located within the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, the venue allows participants and spectators convenient access while offering the infrastructure needed to support a full-scale performance event. With the ability to operate multiple track configurations simultaneously, Pocono Raceway enables a dynamic event environment that supports a wide range of on-track experiences throughout the day.

Timed Track X Sessions
on the Road Course

Track X provides participants the opportunity to experience their vehicles on track in a safe, controlled, and professionally managed environment. Designed to be approachable for drivers of all experience levels, Track X does not require prior track experience and is focused on delivering a fun, performance-driven introduction to on-track driving.

Hosted on the Pocono Raceway East Road Course, this autocross-style experience allows drivers to test their skills while navigating a technical course layout. Timed runs are recorded throughout the session, giving participants the chance to challenge themselves, compare times, and enjoy some friendly competition.

Track X sessions are offered in both morning and afternoon time slots. Participation is limited to 100 registered vehicles, after which a waitlist will be established.

1/3 Mile Side by Side
Roll Racing MPH Challenge

The Roll Racing MPH Challenge is one of the signature experiences at the MPACT Motorsports Festival and consistently sells out within minutes of registration opening. Designed to deliver high-speed, side-by-side competition in a controlled motorsports environment, this experience takes place on NASCAR’s longest straightaway at Pocono Raceway.

Runs begin from a 40 mph or 60 mph roll, allowing vehicles to accelerate through a 2300 foot course before entering a designated braking zone, followed by a section of the North Road Course for controlled cooldown. This format provides drivers the opportunity to safely explore their vehicle’s performance while maintaining structure and oversight throughout each run.

New for 2026, verified start speeds will be implemented for participants seeking consistent and accurate trap speed data. MPH is recorded and displayed live during the event, adding an additional level of transparency and competitive excitement.

*Class winners will receive free entry to the MPACT Motorsports Festival in August to defend their titles, without worry of fighting the lines to register.

Participation is extremely limited, and this experience is expected to sell out quickly.

Judged Car Show

The MPACT Judged Car Show highlights some of the most thoughtfully built performance vehicles in attendance, offering participants the opportunity to showcase their cars in a premium, infield display setting. All car show participants are required to purchase an infield reserved pass to gain access to the designated show area.

The car show welcomes a wide range of BMW, European, exotic, and preimum performance-based vehicles, with an emphasis on build quality, attention to detail, and overall execution.

Classes will be announced prior to the event based on preregistration, allowing the show structure to reflect the vehicles in attendance. Multiple awards will be presented within each class.

Select class winners will be invited to participate in a private post-awards photo session, providing a unique opportunity to capture their vehicles on track in a controlled and professional setting

Updated car show classes and judging details will be announced closer to the event.

Drift Showcase - Drift Rides - Burnout Contest

The Burnout Showcase gives drivers the opportunity to put their cars on display in a controlled, high-energy environment designed for crowd engagement and showmanship.

This feature takes place on a dedicated skid pad area where participants can showcase power, sound, and style while maintaining the professional standards that define the MPACT experience.

The crowd will serve as the judge, bringing energy and excitement to the competition as each participant puts on their best performance.

Burnout Showcase registration will be available on-site at the MPACT main tent. Space is limited and subject to availability.

Vendor Showcase

The Vendor Showcase is a central component of the MPACT Motorsports Festival, bringing together a carefully selected lineup of premium automotive brands and industry leaders. Designed to complement the on-track experiences, the showcase offers attendees the opportunity to engage directly with the companies that shape modern performance, innovation, and vehicle culture.

Throughout the event, attendees can explore a diverse range of products and services, including performance parts, wheels and tires, accessories, specialty vehicles, service and tuning solutions, and emerging automotive technologies. Many vendors also offer interactive displays, live demonstrations, contests, and hands-on experiences that allow guests to better understand how products perform in real-world applications.

The Vendor Showcase provides a unique environment where enthusiasts can ask questions, gather technical insight, and connect with brands they trust—all within the context of a professionally organized motorsports event. Whether you’re planning future upgrades, discovering new products, or simply enjoying the atmosphere, the Vendor Showcase plays an integral role in the overall MPACT experience.
