About this event
CART and MOHUD, in partnership with New England Region SCCA, is proud to present the 2024 Time Trial!
Join us for a day filled with friends, fun, and competition.
Time Trial: Thompson Speedway's 1.7 mile, Clockwise Road Course
CART Time Trials offer oodles of track time at an exceptional value. CART has adapted a Time Attack format that allows all competitors to push themselves to run their best lap every lap. Follow the link below for the schedule of events. Time Attack runs four timed 20 minute sessions, with a traditional 3 lap Time Trial and Open Track to Finish.
If you're looking for an outlet to test your car and yourself, CART Time Trials are for you. Fulfill the competitive urge without going wheel to wheel racing.
Price $395 includes transponder
