2018 Updates:

1.  T-Shirts:  Paid members can pick up their 2018 shirts at the event.  Additional shirts are available for $15 each – pick up an extra and help support the Club!

2.  Novice Racers:  For the regular season, you can race as a Novice twice, then you must race in your car class.  Pre-season races don’t count against this limit.

3.  “Most Improved” Season Award:  This year, we are adding a new award to recognize the racer who shows the most improvement based on their PAX progression throughout the season.  We will keep track of your PAX finishes for all 9 races and see who was able to move up the most.  This award is targeted at racers who compete in every points race in the same PAX class – miss events, and your year-end PAX score will take a hit.  Let’s see who is able to improve the most this year!

4.  Helmets:  Helmets are available to rent for just $1 (and we will hang onto your driver’s license until it is returned).  If you bring your own, it must be SA/MA 2005 or better.

5.  2018 SCCA Classes and Rules:   We have the latest SCCA rule book for your review, and will be confirming your car class at registration.  You can also download the 2018 rules and Street class categories here.

6.  NEW!  Go Kart:  The Club has a go kart available for children age 8 and above – see a Club member for details on how your child can race the kart!
I will see you at the track!
