Practice / HPDE before 2023 NASA Championships

Pittsburgh International Race Compl

About this event


 

Looking for some track time to break up your week or perhaps some extra practice before the 2023 NASA Championships? Join us on September 6th for track time with Lambert Track Days at Pittsburgh International Race Complex! This event is the Wednesday immediately before the NASA Championships. We have the full track rented with fully staffed flag stations and emergency personnel. This is a very unique opportunity to run laps without a lot of traffic and have a great time socializing with other track enthusiasts.

We will be limiting the event to about 60 cars with advanced drivers only! There will be two groups that allow open passing and one group that will require a point-by for passing. 

Driver:

  • $399 through July 31st
  • $449 on or after August 1st

*Heads up! Motorsport Reg now charges a $2 booking fee so you may notice the actual charge to your card is $2 higher.

Co-driver, Same car, Same run group: +$149
Non-driving passenger: +$0; Waiver and wristband required. Visit us at the garage for details.

  • 1:00 PM - Open Track (Open passing, except for cars marked otherwise**)
  • 5:25 PM - Final checkered flag

* We prefer cars with faster lap times to utilize the track during the first 30 minutes and slower cars, as well as drivers who are new to the track, use the next 30 minutes. This is not a hard rule. It’s primarily to ensure we don't have every car on track for the first 30 minutes and an empty track for the next 30 minutes.

** Drivers who are not comfortable with open passing will be provided with a yellow rectangular sticker to place on the rear bumper. This tells the driver behind you to wait for a point-by before passing. If your car is yellow, the sticker will be blue.

Lunch

The Smokin' Dave's BBQ food truck will be open from 11 AM to 1 PM.

If you want to attend, register now. Don't wait and miss the opportunity.
