The event will continue with a similar platform utilized in both the Trophy East and West series with two days of official race activity commencing on Saturday, October 8 and concluding with one final on Sunday, October 9.

The winners will be crowned on Sunday October 9 and receive their official tickets and prize package to compete at the 2022 Grand Finals in Portimao, Portugal.
With a realignment of the Trophy West Series and the Trophy East series stage already set, competitors looking to compete in either series can map out their journey to the US Trophy Finals with clarity. Both series will be a continuation of the facilities and staff from 2021.
