Event Day Important Information:
Everyone should plan to paddock your car up on the hill (see layout below). When you pull in, make a right, drive up the hill, and park on either side of the road. The bottom parking area is reserved for people with trailers or those setting up the event.
It can be difficult to hear the announcements up on the hill, so make sure you get to the driver’s meetings on time, as well as the novice walkthrough. The driver’s meeting will begin promptly at 10:00am (novice walkthrough at 9:30am). Everyone must be at the driver’s meetings or you will not be allowed to participate in the event.
Depending on the number of participants, we will divide the everyone into two ot three run groups. If it is 2 run groups, we will take a 45 min break between run groups. If time allows, we will do un-timed fun runs after the conclusion of the event.
For anyone new to the sport of autocross, we ask that you take a detailed look at our Novice Guide. If you need help or someone to ride along with you at the event, please find an officer or a novice chief to help you.
