About this event
Information
THSCC's presents its 3rd Points Autocross event for 2019. This is your chance to enjoy the fast and flowing venue at the North Carolina Center for Automotive Research (NCCAR) located in Roanoke Rapids, NC. For those who participated in last year's events at this track, you know to expect a great event. For those who are new to THSCC or to NCCAR, this is THE up and coming area for autocross! THSCC uses the actual track to set up its course. This allows for a safe, fast, and long course on the grippiest tarmac in North Carolina. You can't get a better rush than this!
To get ready for this event, please go to our web site, THSCC.COM. Select the “autocross” tab to find everything that you need to know for an autocross event such as what to do, which class you should sign up for, and directions to the site. You will find classes and numbers that you can print by selecting “forms”. Novices only need to print the “NOV” class not the actual car's class. Remember to bring tape to post your class and number on the side of your car. A mandatory instructional novice walk will start promptly at 8:45AM. Please have your car ready and be there on time.
In addition Saturday will be the first event of the NCAC Traveling series. Please make sure to register with the link below to the club of your affiliation.

Event requirements
Your car should be teched BEFORE the drivers meeting. To pass tech, you must:
- Clean out any loose items in the car, this includes cell phones cables, garage door openers, loose change and such.
- The battery has to be properly secured.
- If your floor mats are not physically attached to carpet, they will have to be removed. We don’t want the floor mat to bunch up under the brake or gas.
- Hubcaps and center caps on wheels should be removed. If your hubcaps mount to the wheel and are held in place by the lug nuts, then they can stay on, otherwise they should be removed.
- Have a SNELL approved helmet, 2005 or newer (M-rated or SA-rated). We do not accept DOT-only approved helmets any longer.
It is your responsibility to:
- Check basic fluids such as oil, coolant, and brake.
- Make sure you torque the lug nuts to manufacturer's recommended tightness.
- Make sure you have no active leaks on the motor, transmission or diff. Oil on the track is a bad thing.
- Check tire pressure. If you don’t know what to set it to, ask ASAP.
- You WILL experience greater than normal tire wear. Your tires MUST be serviceable, meaning they have appropriate tread, no chords showing, etc.
In addition, TO ANYONE ATTENDING THEIR FIRST AUTOCROSS:
- In regards to displaying your class and numbers, please keep in mind that you should use tape or printed letters and numbers that contrast to your car's color, i.e. no blue tape on blue cars.
