About this event
This is a new event for Audi Club Northwest at Pacific Raceways. For those of you who haven’t been able to join an Audi Club Northwest event at Portland International Raceway or Bremerton Motorsports Park, this is a great opportunity to experience an Audi Club event at a world class facility within a short drive from the Seattle area.
Located only 34 miles from downtown Seattle, the Pacific Raceways Road Course is a world-class, SCCA and NASCAR certified, 10-turn (9 turns with a "kink" in the main straightaway), 2.25-mile course. The 170mph front straight is at an elevation of 150 feet above sea level. There is a total elevation change of 125 feet, of which 100 feet occurs in 1/2 mile, between turn 2 and turn 3B. Winding through natural wooded terrain, sweeping curves and hairpin turns make Pacific Raceways one of the most unique and challenging courses in the United States.
The one day price of $235 includes lunch and plenty of track time. The one day price for instructors is $135. We will be limiting this event to 60 participants, so we can provide as much track time as possible.
ACNA membership is required for this event. If you are not a club member yet, and you own an Audi, please contact our registrar John Ewald at john.ewald@mac.com for new membership options. Anyone may join ACNA or renew an existing membership as part of your registration on the following event sign-up pages. As always, you can visit www.audiclubna.org for more details on ACNA membership.
All attendees must be at least 18 years of age.
This event does NOT have a Driver's Education exercises component. It is for drivers who have attended at least one ACNW high speed lapping event or equivalent from another club or driver's school. Please indicate your driver skill level as part of the registration process online.
If you have questions, email the event master, Seth Varty at SethVarty@gmail.com
Event requirements
Please indicate the signoff in your Log Book for driver skill level when that question appears in the registration process. Instructors will be available for anyone who wants coaching, and for those who are not signed off to Intermediate (solo).
Convertibles and roadsters are not permitted to run high speed driver training events unless equipped with an approved aftermarket 4-point roll bar in the car and 4-point ASM, 5-point or 6-point harnesses. The roll bar must pass the “broomstick rule” such that a broomstick from the top of the windshield to the top of the roll bar is over the head of the driver. The TT convertible and A4/S4/S5/RS4 Cabriolet will not qualify for tech inspection without an aftermarket roll bar. Both front seats require 4-point ASM, 5-point or 6-point harnesses if a passenger is present. The Audi Club North America policy is posted on www.audiclubna.org for your review.
Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) are not permitted.
Our 2010 Helmet Requirement is for Snell 2000 or later. The SA (Automotive), M (Motorcycle) and K (Karting) designators are approved. We have 20 club helmets available for rent ($25) on a first come, first serve basis. If you still need a helmet but they are all are rented out at the time of your registration, please make a note in the registration comments that you need one. We cannot guarantee that one will become available however, and you will not be allowed to participate without a helmet.
