About this event
The Arctic Alaska Region, of the Sports Car Club of America, will be sanctioning the Faster than the Leaves Fall Autocross at Alaska Raceway Park on Saturday, September 6th. Event Chairman Bill Demming invites all autocross enthusiasts to join us for a challenging course and an afternoon of drive time. To quote Al Mills — “we're going to see some familiar faces and good times! Seat time, smiles and Solo — what is a better way to spend the day...!"
Alaska Raceway Park is located off the Palmer Alternate (Old Glenn Hwy), just up Sullivan Avenue.
10:00-10:30 AM — Onsite Registration Open
Our Solo Team are providing lunch for Competitors and Workers, as there are no restaurants nearby, so you will not be able to leave the site to travel into Big Lake or Wasilla. Their shopping will be based on those who utilize pre-registration, so don't delay — register today! Water will be provided by the Region.
Please arrive early to allow time to settle your gear, prepare your car, and get through Tech Inspection before the Walk-Thru. Remember, all loose items will need to be out of your car and your battery will need to be solidly secured—no bungee cords!
Don't forget your valid Driver's License!
