For this event, we are running a 3-heat format identical to SCCA's in which you drive one heat, work one heat and have off one heat (lunch, spectating...)

Autocross is also a great venue to learn how to drive your car and learn - car control, proper braking techniques, how to calculate the proper line, and how your car handles at the limit (or beyond), all in a safe environment.  We will have instructors available to coach you.  (Be sure to talk to your instructor about what you want to learn.)

It's also a great & FUN way to learn your car's true potential, and have a fun day with your friends - even if you are not a "competitive" autocrosser.

But don't be surprised if the friendly competition grows on you :-)

The pricing for this event should be $70.  If we are over-subscribed it may be slightly less.  If it has a lower subscription rate, it might be slightly more (with also more runs).

PCA and SCCA members pay the member rate.  Others pay a $10 premium.  On-site registration and payment carries a $10 surcharge.  If you do register on-site know your class and have exact cash or check! We will not have change.

Please see nnjr-pca Website (link below) for Car Classification Details

If you do not want to deal with the complexities of classing your car, simply select "FUN" - you will still receive your times, but you will not be competing with others in a class.

PCA classes: (for those not concerned with competition, pick "FUN")
