About this event

Welcome to the third and last NE-SVT Autocross of the abbreviated 2020 season, after the COVID-19 shutdown.  If you have never been to one of our events, you will not be disappointed! Our courses are just over 1.2 miles long and our events offer lots of seat time by limiting participation (additionally reduced by MA COVID protocols) to to only 60 cars!   

COVID 19 Precautions:

We will be operating under MA. COVID 19  Phase 2 Guidelines, so our events will be significantly different than what you have experienced in the past.   Specific detailed instructions and required procedures will be provided with the confirmation e-mail sent out to registrants several days before the event, but there are several requirements with which you will need to be aware before you register:

  1. Only registered drivers and club staff will be allowed at the event.  No guests or spectators will be allowed.  Remember you need to be an approved NE-SVT member before you can register (see next page)
  2. The registered driver or registered co-driver are the only ones allowed in a specific car, no car swapping
  3. No loaner helmets will be provided
  4. No in-car instructors will be provided. Some level of instruction will be provided outside of the in-car environment.
  5. Registrants to provide their own face masks, and encouraged to provide hand sanitizer inside their car for their personal use.  We will provide hand sanitizer, and sanitizing wipes at the cone stations and other locations, and a small supply of masks in case your dog ate yours.
  6. You will be screened at the gate for COVID-19 symptoms, and you will not be able to participate if you are ill.  Refunds will be provided if you can not attend due to illness.
