About this event
Join COMSCC for a time-trial track event at the Thompson Speedway road course. Come and enjoy this historic and challenging track and experience COM's unique blend of camaraderie, sportsmanship and spirit of competition. We welcome drivers with a COMSCC TT Competition license. Drivers that possess recognized competition credentials with other organizations are encouraged to reach out to our Chief Instructor (chiefinstructor@comscc.org) for consideration. Cars of all makes and levels of modification are allowed. (safety rules apply).
There is going to be a LOT of track time! The first day is practice with four twenty to thirty minute sessions, or more. The second day is a Time Trial with two twenty to thirty minute practice sessions, the Time Trial, and then open track until the checker at 5pm. If you've never run a time trial with COM, you owe it to yourself to indulge in this form of competition. Our points-based car classification system will fit your car into one of our 8 Touring classes for street cars, or one of our 6 Super classes for more modified or purebred race cars.
To ensure the health safety of all participants and staff, and to help our venue remains open and operating, we will comply with all CDC, state, local and venue-specific requirements, and we will be limiting the event to drivers and staff only. Unfortunately, we are sorry to report that this means we are unable to safely offer student instruction at this time. Also, no ride along of any kind will be allowed. All social distancing and PPE requirements shall be enforced. For the most up to date information on the guidelines refer to these CT state links: General COVID-19 https://portal.ct.gov/DPH/Environmental-Health/COVID-19 Latest Guidance: https://portal.ct.gov/Coronavirus/Covid-19-Knowledge-Base/Latest-Guidance
To further ensure the safety and enjoyment for all members, we are limiting this event to 75 participants. We anticipate this event will fill up fast, so please register early to ensure you get a spot. This is a Time Trial event so participants will receive 2 Participation Points (see section J in the COMSCC Event and Time Trial rules).
