Notes and Reminders:​​

  • Overnighting in the paddock is available with prior notice.  Space is limited so make your request when you register - https://bit.ly/2025TopDogChampionship.  Please note, you will not be able to access the paddock before 18:00 on October 11th.

  • No one under the age of 18 is allowed on the track during competition or parade laps. This is a Summit Point safety regulation.

  • We will be livestreaming the event. You can share the link with family and friends.  Send them a text 2 minutes prior to your run and they can watch you live. Pretty cool.  Right?

  • We have only had one incident during our first four annual events.  That said, track insurance for your car is a good (great!) idea.  The insurance is very affordable. Providers are noted below:

  • We will provide still and drone footage free of charge to all participants.  It may take a week to get everything processed but it will happen:-)

  • Woody.  This year's event is about generating funds for "Woody's" training.  Woody is a black Labrador being trained for a veteran needing a service dog.  You can donate at this link - https://donorbox.org/2025-service-dog-program
