GVC Autocross event #6 - Towne Mini Day

Our final autocross event of the year will be held at the Seneca Army Depot.  This is a decommissioned Army base with a long asphalt runway connected to a concrete refueling pad by two access roads that allow us to set up a long,  looping course that is usually more open than your typical parking lot autocross.

Mini owners drive free at this event thanks to our sponsor - Towne BMW-MINI in Williamsville, NY

Car Numbers

Car numbers from MotorsportReg.com will be honored whenever possible.  Numbers can be applied with shoe polish or painters tape (usually available at the registration desk) if you don't have vinyl or magnetic numbers.  

Car Tech Review

A technical review will be performed on each car.  We use a "roving tech" system, so cars will be checked in the paddock area.  Items that are checked during tech include:

• All loose objects removed from car interior and trunk, including driver floor mat
• Rapid Throttle return
• Battery secure
• Firm Brake Pedal
• No play in Wheel bearings
• Adequate tire tread (no cord showing)
• Helmet within one generation of current Snell rating.  Must have hologram with SA or M 2000 or newer.  Loaner helmets are available to drivers that don't have a Snell-certified helmet.
