Each year the International Series of Champions (ISOC) SnoX Racing organization invites the top point's leaders to compete in the Showdown at Sundown Affiliate Championship. The top three point's leaders are invited from each of the eight affiliates throughout the United States at the grand finale.

Local racers that have qualified from the Minnesota Regional SnoX affiliate are Brandon Herheim and Evan Daudt to compete in the Sport Class; Cody Daudt and Evan Daudt to compete in the 16-17 Class; Tyler Daudt and Cody Daudt to compete in the 14-15 Class.

Points are earned each weekend of racing. Racers run heat races, earning points and hoping to earn a position in the final race. The racers that do not qualify for the Final during the heat races have one additional chance in the Last Chance Qualifier (LCQ) race. No points are earned in the LCQ, but a win will give them a back row start in the Final race. The first racer to cross the finish line earns the most points. Each of the following racers will earn one point less than the racer ahead of them. Some of the Classes have point battles that change each week while other Classes have a racer that takes the lead and never looks back. When a racer continues to be successful in their Class, it is time to consider moving up to the next Class. Racers can petition to move up a Class, but can never compete in a Class which is designed for younger racers.[[In-content Ad]]

Along with the Minnesota Regional SnoX circuit, the other seven affiliates competing in the Showdown at Sundown Championship are located in Eagle River, WI; Iron River, WI; St. Johns, MI; Wauconda, IL; Cheshire, CT; Caldwell, ID; and Craig, CO.

The Showdown at Sundown Affiliate Championship will be held on March 16, 2012 in Lake Geneva, WI. This will be the first day of a three day finale race competition.

As Duluth has been designated the kick off venue for the ISOC SnoX season each Thanksgiving weekend, Lake Geneva hosts the grand finale each March. March 17th and 18th will be the last National SnoX races, followed with a banquet at the Grand Lake Geneva complex.
