Manzanar Airport

About this event


 

THE EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED TO MAY 15-16, 2021 

For 2020, the Lone Pine Time Trials Committee celebrates our 50th Anniversary – 50 years of flat-out-fun! 

You’ll get a big course that’s over 2 miles long, run one way on Saturday and the other on Sunday.  Depending on the turnout, competitors will get at least four timed runs each day and fun runs are always a good possibility after the final group is done. This course will provide a challenge for all whether in modified, prepared, street prepared, stock or vintage. Don’t be left to hear the stories from all your friends of a great weekend – Be There! Check out this descriptive video from 2017.

Basic car classification will be per the 2019 SCCA National Solo rule book. Still not sure what class? – provide details on how your car is prepared on the entry form (engine, suspension, tires & wheels, etc.) and we’ll find a place for you. Unsafe vehicles will be turned away (Sorry, no Karts or high CG vehicles due to the surface characteristics). This is not an autocross event, this is a high speed time trial with an autocross format.
