About this event
All AutoX participants will be treated to lunch courtesy of Porsche Hartford and all get a 2026 limited edition CVR AutoX Series T-Shirt. This CVR AutoX is the last of the season and your last chance to qualify for the season championship, where your best 3 events will be tallied. The Top-20 for the season will be invited to drive the same Porsche provided by Porsche Hartford in the famous Hoffman Cup Run Off event held in the afternoon.
The CVR AutoX series is an exciting way to experience the thrill of motorsport in a low-cost, friendly, fun, and safe competition. It’s like driving your favorite twisty back road, but at highway speeds! AutoX has proven to be gentle on your car and CVR even cleans the course and cones before each event to ensure that. New courses are designed for each event to compliment the AutoX-University lesson that starts off each event. CVR courses are also designed to be easy to follow and we pre-publish course maps about a week before each event to make it easier to focus on those lessons.
The CVR AutoX Program provides a great atmosphere of fun, learning, and camaraderie. Your best three events for the season in a Porsche determine your championship total and a Top-Twenty ranking earns you an invite to the famous Hoffman Cup Run Off. AutoX-U lessons help you do that by learning “Better Driving…Faster! “.
CVR AutoX is open to all Porsche Club of America members and anyone driving a Porsche. We also have an “Other” car class open to members, and non-member guests of a PCA member driving the event. PCA members are allowed to invite up to two non-members per event.
Registration is capped to 70 drivers per event on a first come basis, so don't delay in registering!
Online Registration Fees:
Members $40
