About this event

The weather for October looks great.  Don't put your car away just yet.  Saturday, Oct. 14th 1:30-5:00, CSCC is running one last track day at RMM.   We are trying to make this as affordable as possible.

More details if you press "Register Now" below, this does not commit you, but you'll get more details.

In order to keep track days affordable, we need a reasonable number of entries.  The number of entries for this event will determine prices next year.

Please arrive by 1:30 to allow organized entry to the track so we can maximize time on the track.

We'll be lapping at Rocky Mountain Motorsports, 40 mins north of Calgary.  This is a CSCC event for everyone to allow you to enjoy driving your car in a controlled track environment. This is a not a race, you will not be timed.  

Lapping is driving your car around the track with a small group of others with similar experience.   Passing is allowed only on specified longer straights, when the driver in front acknowledges that they know they are being passed.  You will have 3 sessions of approximately 20 minutes each.  

We would like to encourage ladies to participate.  If we have enough women, we will have one session just for ladies.  If you're interested in the ladies session then sign up as Novice-Ladies or Experienced Ladies.  Ladies who sign up in these groups would then also be in the Novice or Experienced Groups for the rest of the day.

We will be leading some parade laps for CSCC members and members of WCMA affiliated clubs to follow in their own vehicles around the track at safe speeds following the last session.  Spectators who are not club members can ride with a member during the parade laps, or for the price of a club membership can drive their own car.

Afterwards we invite everyone to the CSCC Clubhouse (4215 - 80th Ave NE) for slot-car racing, socializing, and for snacks and drinks.
