Waitlist

If the event is full, you will be put on a waitlist and you will not be charged until you qualify for an opening.

What is Autocross?

Our autocross is an all forward gear competitive driving event in which one vehicle at a time is timed for one or more laps on a clearly defined closed course on a hard surface with a defined start and finish line. An autocross is run in lower gears (typically 2nd & 3rd) with an emphasis on handling and agility rather than speed and power. An autocross is not wheel-to-wheel racing, a time trial or a gymkhana. More than one vehicle can be on the course at the same time as long as vehicles do not run in proximity to each other and workers are not put at risk. There will be official timing of each lap with penalties for course deviations or hit cones. Awards will be given for finishing positions in class and/or overall at the end of the year.
