Watkins Glen Int'l

About this event

GVC Autocross

Something new for 2012. We will be doing an autocross at the Niagara region PCA 50th anniversary event at WGI. This should make for a large Porsche class and a fun day of competition. Plus, we will be able to watch some of the on track action as PCA holds their club race.

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.  If your car is ready for tech leave the hood open so the tech team can check it. 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 2005 or newer.  Loaner helmets are available to drivers that don't have a Snell-certified helmet.

Event requirements

  • Participants must have a valid driver's licence.
  • If you bring your own helmet, it must have a Snell hologram inside the lining with SA or M certification dated 2005 or newer.
  • All participants and spectators must sign the GVC waiver on site.
