This will be an exciting day of autocross.  We will set a course that creates a challenging and safe autocross environment.

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 :-)

We will run a sliding price scale based on the number of registrations we receive.  The the "target price" is $70.  If we have heavy registration it may be slightly less.  If if we have fewer registrations, 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.
