goldRush Rally 2026

For nearly two decades, the GoldRush Rally has convened a passionate community of performance driving enthusiasts, turning the American highway system into an annual canvas for adventure and friendship. For 2026, the tradition continues with GR2026: Drive West, charting a spectacular course from the iconic sound stages of Nashville, Tennessee, to the glittering expanse of Las Vegas, Nevada.

This nine-day odyssey is a deliberate journey across the heartland and the formidable Western states. It is a route designed to challenge drivers and reward them with an immersive experience of America's diverse landscapes and cultures. The itinerary weaves together major metropolitan centers - from the historical brickwork of Indianapolis and the lakeside energy of Milwaukee - with the wild, open spaces of the frontier.

The path crests through the Black Hills to the legendary town of Deadwood, South Dakota, before climbing into the stunning peaks of the Rockies. Drivers will navigate towards the remote majesty of Big Sky, Montana, and pause in the iconic mountain town of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. This transcontinental trek culminates in a descent into the desert, finishing the 1,900-mile narrative in the electric atmosphere of Las Vegas.

GoldRush is defined not by the destinations, but by the shared moments on the road - the exhilaration of a mountain pass, the conversations during a quiet meal, and the lasting bonds formed across state lines. It is a nine-day immersion into the driving spirit, undertaken with a global family of dedicated enthusiasts.
