We were not able to clear the reschedule date with the Fairgrounds, and are still working on that liability insurance policy for this year, so we are not able to race this weekend.  We are looking ahead to our season opening Spring Enduro weekend coming up at the end of the month – please plan to join us then!

Here is the full schedule through January of 2024:

March 25th & 26th – Spring Enduro
April 15th & 16th
May 13th & 14th  
June 3rd & 4th – Thunderhill with Northbay Corvettes
July 23rd (Sunday)
August 20th (Sunday)
September 23rd & 24th
October 7th & 8th – Thunderhill with Northbay Corvettes
October 21st & 22nd – Fall Enduro & Year End Celebration
January 20th & 21st 2024  

Online calendars and events will be updated soon, and registration for the March 25th – 26th Spring Enduro weekend will open next week.

Thank-you for your support and patience as we get going for another great year of autocross with the Trinity Touring Club!

We are going to try one more time to have our second pre-season weekend autocross next weekend, March 4th & 5th.  If you’ve already registered online and can make it next weekend, you don’t need to do anything.  If you can’t make it, you should be able to cancel online, or just reply to this email.

The date is not yet confirmed with the Fairgrounds and we still need our liability insurance, so consider it tentative.  If we can’t clear the schedule or get the insurance inforce for those dates, then we will have to scrub the event all together and our next race will be the season opening Enduro March 25th and 26th.

We are still waiting for our 2023 liability insurance policy, and unfortunately it is not yet in force, so we are unable to put a tire on the race track this weekend.  I’m sorry for the inconvenience and late notice, we had a “last chance” deadline of Noon today that has passed, so we are rescheduling to next weekend.

If you’ve already registered online and can make it next weekend, you don’t need to do anything.  If you can’t make it, you should be able to cancel online, or send an email with any other changes you’d like to make. 

IMPORTANT NOTE for 2023: There are some car class changes from SCCA for this season – some popular classes like ASP have been eliminated, other classes have expanded, and new classes added.  Please review the current draft SCCA Solo Rules for 2023 and choose your class accordingly when registering – if you’re unsure, just register for something and we’ll confirm at the track.  New PAX factors can be found at https://www.solotime.info/pax/

We had a great January event and are looking forward to our next pre-season weekend February 25th and 26th, rain or shine, at the Shasta Speedway.  All are welcome!  This is the last of two pre-season weekend “test and tune” events this year, our season will start in March with our Spring Enduro March 25th and 26th.

The sun came out but didn’t do much to heat things up for our January pre-season weekend, but not to worry, as we brought the heat!  We had a fast, technical track that had some racers caught out for at least a run or two, but with six runs, everyone got it figured out by the end.  A big thanks to Jeremy for the fun track, and to our great group of racers and Club members that made it out for a couple of days of January racing.

Boris Podtetenieff was the fastest racer both days in the Tesla Model S Plaid, old tires or not.  Our PAX winner Saturday was Blake DeWit in his ES classed Miata, and Sunday, it was Brian Berry in the DS classed Mustang Ecoboost HPP.  The fastest Novices were David Starkey in his Corvette on Saturday, and AJ Delgado in a Tesla Model 3 Performance on Sunday.

We had a record day Saturday with 50 racers taking the green flag for Enduro practice.  Sunday it was 34 drivers racing for the win.  David Winterburn in the JBS Sports Racer was the fastest driver Sunday with a blistering time of  262.736 for 5 laps around the course.  Our PAX winner was Robert Foster who did a beautiful run in his AS classed Corvette Grand Sport (with no practice, btw), and our fastest Novice was Joe Reyes in a Subaru BRZ.  Full results at https://trinitytouringclub.com/race-results/

Saturday, we had a well attended Chili Cookoff with many different styles of everyone’s favorite meat gravy.  Our winner, in a stand-out performance, was Diane Heinze.  Class winner awards this year were embroidered windbreakers with the club logo on the back and are absolutely amazing – thank-you David and Custom Imprints!  Sunday, our big raffle winners were Garret Murphy, who scored the 2023 TTC Season Pass, Shawn McNeely for the hotel stay and dinner at Mosiac, and Shane Larsen with the Gorilla bedliner from Lithia Chevrolet.  

The Enduro race weekend wrapped up our charity fundraiser for Toys for Tots and Adopt a Family.  The raffle brought in $1,500 and with our amazing attendance for the Enduro, the Club is able to add $2,500.  Perry’s Automotive also made a direct $500 donation for a total of $4,500 to be split between the two non-profits.  Fantastic job on the fundraiser this year! 

We could not do these events without the support of our members and local community.  Big thanks for this year’s raffle donations go to:

Lithia Chevrolet

Mosiac

Snap-on Tools

O’Reilly Auto Parts

Naked Coffee

Redding Realty

Sun Oaks

Studio West Salon

Dills Deli

Sharon Haley – 2023 Season Pass

Kelly Daniels – Handcrafted blankets

Dawn Fedeli – Gift Box

Another huge thanks goes to our 2022 season sponsors – we hope you will support us again for next year!  Pre-season racing will resume in January!

We’ll have more updates for Club members soon for club elections and our planned entry in the https://www.reddingchristmasparade.com/ on Saturday Dec. 3rd.

We are racing Saturday and Sunday October 15th & 16th at the Shasta Speedway, rain or shine, for our final event of 2022!  Saturday is practice for Sunday’s Enduro and will feature two laps per run to give you some practice for Sunday’s 5 lap main event.  Sunday you will do 5 laps all in one run, with your cumulative time determining your finishing position.  

Saturday evening we will be hosting a Chili Cook-off at the track – we’ll have a place for you to plug in your crockpot so bring it with you to Saturday’s event, or plan to go get it after the race and come back to sample all the offerings!  Plan to gather around 430pm – we’ll vote on the best chili and award a fabulous prize!  We will also be celebrating our 2022 Fast Driver, PAX, and Class winners so please do plan to join us at the track Saturday evening.  BYOB!
