Nitrocross

Motorsport Championships

Nitrocross was an American rallycross racing series created by rallycross driver Travis Pastrana and the Nitro Circus production in 2018. Rallycross first appeared as a sport in the Nitro World Games at Utah Motorsports Campus in 2018 and 2019, and the series became a full championship in 2021, sanctioned by the United States Auto Club. Race weekends featured a Supercar class, a developmental NEXT class and, from 2022, an electric Group E class using the FC1-X battery SUV platform. Qualifying battles, heats, semi-finals and a ten-car final decided each event, and tracks were purpose built with mixed surfaces and jumps. Races expanded to Canada, Sweden and England from the 2022-23 season, the series was renamed from Nitro Rallycross to Nitrocross in 2023, and it was discontinued in October 2024.
