CART Autocross @ Big E

Eastern States Exposition

About this event

CART is Happy to announce 2 new events at a great new location.  After many years of searching, CART has partnered with The Big E to host 2 events in 2019.  June 30th and July 14th 2019 at the Big E, Cart will be hosting 2 autocross events.  Bring your friends and bring your family.  This is the lot CART has been looking for.  Large open pavement to run on, grass staging area, on site facilities, and of course CART Racing Fun.  Come out and race with us and let’s show our new hosts how excited we are to race at The Big E!

Event price: $40 members $50 non-members 

CART runs a PAX-grouped classing system, C0 through C6, which has recently been revised/updated based on the current 2019 SCCA PAX index.

As a result, several classes have moved around.  There is a good chance you'll be in a different class than last year, please check!!

In order to select the appropriate CART class, you will need to know your SCCA Solo class:

Although not listed at the link above, the three open/Pro classes (PRO S, PRO R, PRO G) are still available as well and have not changed.  Please see our website for more details on these three classes.
