About this event
The Track Junkies group is Alberta’s premium recreational lapping day experience, with a safe and welcoming environment for people with high-value street and track cars to come out and play. This special event is run differently from our typical Track Junkies offering, so please read the following FORMAT description carefully to consider if you are qualified for this event.
FORMAT: There will be no novices or "not signed off solo" attendees at this event. There will also not be any Time Attack Competition at this event.
Instead, we will have only TWO run groups featuring alternating 25 minute run sessions. One group will have passing (always with a point-by) optional in the corners if both parties are comfortable with a pass in the corners. The second group will have passing expected everywhere (always with a point-by). The last hour of the day is both groups combined. This will effectively give each run group a maximum of 3.5 hours of lapping. Three twenty five minute sessions before lunch; three twenty five minute sessions after lunch; and a combined final hour from 4 to 5pm where everyone is allowed on the track together with yellow group passing rules for the last hour.
INSTRUCTION will not be available on this day. This event is for signed off solo drivers.

- Trucks, SUV's, SAV's and other high center of gravity vehicles are NOT permitted.
- Convertibles, cabriolets, and open-top cars must have structural rollover protection ... if you do not know what this means, please contact us BEFORE registering. A partial list of convertibles with acceptable factory-provided roll bar protection can be found on our website at http://www.trackjunkies.ca/approved-convertible-list/. If your convertible is not on the list, feel free to email at info@trackjunkies.ca to confirm if your car qualifies to run in our events.
- "Inspected in advance" means downloading the Track Junkies self-tech inspection form found at www.trackjunkies.ca/self-tech.pdf prior to the event and verifying the condition of each item on the form. Vehicles must be inspected separately for each event --- photocopies of previous inspections are not acceptable. The term "self-tech" means you may perform the inspection yourself if you have the required knowledge and tools. If you do not have the technical knowledge or tools required, or are not willing to take the time to properly inspect each item, please have the vehicle inspected by a licensed Automotive Service Technician with knowledge of the rigors expected in road course driving.

ONCE YOUR TECH INSPECTION FORM IS FILLED OUT, SCAN OR TAKE A PHOTO OF IT AND EMAIL IT TO info@trackjunkies.ca BEFORE 18:00 HOURS THE NIGHT BEFORE THE EVENT. In the event you forget to email it, you will be required to email it first before entering the race facility on the morning of the event. Do it before, please, to avoid delays entering the race facility.

ALL Snell-approved helmets bear a Snell rating sticker, typically found by lifting up the helmet liner (you should not need to remove any glued portions of the liner to view the sticker). Open-face helmets are preferred in vehicles with air bags; closed-face helmets are preferred in vehicles without air bags. We have a limited number of open-face Snell-SA rental helmets available for Novice drivers.
