Pre-season autocross #2 is this weekend, Sunday, February 23rd. We had a great group for the first pre-season race in January (some pics on Facebook), and that one was kinda wet. We are expecting mostly clear and warm weather this weekend, so we hope to see more of you out to join us for some autocross fun!
The club will be serving up fresh donuts and hot coffee Sunday morning, and depending on attendance, we may offer free fun runs in the afternoon to anyone who paid/registered for the event. We would like to fill up 4 run groups, so as always, it is first come, first registered, if you can stay with us for the afternoon, we’d appreciate you registering for the later groups. This will help ensure we have rental helmets available for everyone who would like to race or ride.
Saturday 02.22.2020– Gates open at 4:00pm
Saturday afternoon for track setup – please
come by and help us out with setup if you can! The more folks, the
quicker it goes! We punted the annual trailer clean up to March.

Entry fee is $30 for members and $35 for non-members – electronic payments accepted. Becoming a member is as easy as completing the membership application portion of the Tech Sheet and paying for an Individual ($30), Family ($35), or Business ($200, $400, or $600) membership. This is a great time of the year to join the club as you will get $5 off the entry fee for all Shasta Speedway autocross races – make it to half of those, and your membership pays for itself! Plus you get a rad t-shirt at the beginning of our regular season in April, can compete for season trophies, and get the opportunity to help run our events. Join the club!
Other Info:
1. Helmets: Helmets are available to rent for just $1 (and we will hang onto your driver’s license until it is returned).

3. March Pre-Season Race: We are looking to move the March race up one week from 03.22 to 03.15 so we don’t conflict with SSCC Medford’s Spring Enduro, which is happening March 20th – 22nd.
