About this event
Join us on Thurs, Aug 29, 2013 for the 2013 Fastrack Autobody Track Day #3 at Mission Raceway Park hosted by VCMC Motorsport Club. Mission Raceway is a 9-turn, 1.4 mile long permanent road racing circuit.
VCMC, in partnership with Fastrack Autobody, continues to offer great value to track day participants by providing tons of seat time, instruction for novices, lunch & refreshments, and professional track marshals to keep the event safe, fun, and efficient.
Our track events are open to drivers of various experience levels. Drivers are grouped by experience to ensure that all the drivers and vehicles in each session are evenly matched. First timers and new novices attend an orientation session at the start of the day and are accompanied by senior drivers on reconnaissance laps until they are ready to drive solo. We cap our lapping day entries so that group sizes remain manageable and everyone gets plenty of track time.

Includes hot lunch and refreshments:
- $250 CAD + GST for first-timers and new novices. Fee includes 1-on-1 instruction.
- $230 CAD + GST for experienced drivers signed-off to drive solo.

Novices
In addition to the requirements in the regulations, all drivers must have some previous performance driving experience (e.g. autocross, time trials, lapping, performance driving school, etc.). Instruction will be available for first-timers and novices not yet signed off to drive solo. Novices must attend the classroom session which will be held at the Raceway on the morning of each event. The classroom session covers the rules of a track day event, safety concerns, passing rules and mental preparation for track driving. Novices are not allowed to carry passengers except for an instructor. A novice is defined as a driver who has participated in 3 or fewer track days.
Experienced Drivers
Please describe your high performance driving experience under your Motorsportsreg.com Driver Information Profile.
Vehicle Requirements
Vehicles must undergo a compliance check at the track before being permitted to run. This is not a full mechanical inspection. It is ultimately the driver's responsibility to ensure that the vehicle is safe and meets all of the requirements.
All convertibles, including those with mechanically retractable hard tops, must run with approved roll over protection (ie. roll bars / roll cages) in place. Factory roll hoops (such as those found in the 3rd gen Miata and S2000) do not qualify as adequate roll over protection.
