You have found the info & pre-registration page for the 2016 NASA Mid-Atlantic Circuitcross at Virginia International Raceway's Patriot Course on Sunday May 22, 2016 during HYPERFEST weekend. The tentative schedule is:

Registration & tech open @ 11:30a
Drivers meeting @ 12:30p
Heat A @ 1p
Heat B @ 2:50p
[possible Heat C or Fun Runs @ TBA]
Off track/cleanup by 5:30p

This is a half-day championship event for double points. It is effectively a faster autocross on a dedicated road course without cones - a run will be almost an entire lap of the 1.1 mile infield circuit, click here for an in-car video of one way these have been set up and click here for another in-car video of another way these have been set up. Participants can expect at least 5 runs each, but hopefully more, and there are no work assignments. Pre-registration is discounted below. If it doesn't fill, we will accept walk-up registrations that day for $100 each - cash or card.

All drivers will need to sign the waiver and get a wristband immediately upon arrival. The track may be charging an admission fee of up to $30 at the front gate for crew and guests and drivers who didn't pre-register AND Circuitcross drivers who don't come in during certain timeframes because this takes place during HYPERFEST which is a public/spectator weekend, please contact the track directly for gate info or pre-order your Saturday gate entry tickets here. Also please join us for a 2 hour arrive & drive twilight kart enduro at VIR Kart Track the night before this Circuitcross!

CANCELLATION/CREDIT/REFUND POLICY is near the bottom of the page here: http://www.nasaracing.net/contact-us/cancellation-policy/. Please read and understand this special event policy before you register.

All drivers must be at least 18 years of age with a valid drivers license. All registered cars need to pass our safety tech as per this form https://www.nasaproracing.com/rules/nasa-x_tech.pdf . Registered drivers must show up with a completed tech form. There will be a $50.00 inspection fee for cars without a completed form that need a full trackside tech, and the driver may miss track time as a result.

NOTE: because this is a higher speed road course event, rollbars are required in most convertibles. Please inquire before registering if you plan to enter a convertible.

ALSO NOTE: because this is a higher speed road course event, passengers will not be allowed unless they are certified NASA instructors (cleared in advance only) and/or unless the driver holds a valid NASA competition license, TT license, instructor card, or significant NASA HPDE3/4 advanced group history (cleared in advance only.) Please inquire before registering if any of this applies to you.

If you are unsure of your car's NASA-X class please simply select "NXR" aka "run what ya brung" (or NOVICE if applicable.) 
Please list three car number choices when you register (i.e. 7, 17, 71.) We can't have duplicate car numbers even in different heats because it can mess up our timing & scoring. We will publish an entry list with confirmed car numbers later. Car numbers need to be big and visible on event day, no shoe polish numbers please. Painters tape on windows or bodywork is ok.
