PCA-SDR Time Trial – Chuckwalla (CW) Double Points info on Oct 17, 2020 (635892) | MotorsportReg.com

Porsche Club of America – San Diego Region welcomes you!

Join us at what has become PCA San Diego's home track:  Chuckwalla Valley Raceway, Saturday & Sunday, October 17 & 18, running clockwise and is a Double Points event.   Fall in the low desert usually provides nearly perfect driving weather.   Be sure to carefully read everything on both this page and the next before signing-up so that you aren't shut out!

DUE TO COVID-19, THIS WILL BE A SOLO DRIVER EVENT ONLY.  WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ALLOW STUDENTS AT THIS EVENT.  IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF YOUR STATUS,  REGISTER FIRST AND ASK ABOUT YOUR STATUS IN NOTES TO THE REGISTRAR. WE WILL NOTIFY YOU AS SOON AS WE CAN REGARDING YOUR STATUS.

This Chuckwalla event features a Time Trial (TT), with separate run groups .  All spots are allocated first come, first served (subject to Season Pass priority).  If you sign-up and a spot does not become available for you, you will not be charged.  Thus, if you are interested in participating,  indicate your interest by signing-up ASAP.

Important information for signing-up (read and heed this carefully before registration opens if you really want to attend):

• Due to very high expected demand, completing the online registration process DOES NOT mean you are Confirmed to attend the event
• Sign-up correctly when registration first opens to maximize your chances of being Confirmed
• To sign-up correctly, thoroughly read this information page and the next, follow all instructions (many of which need to be completed before registration opens), then carefully fill out the registration form on the third page once it becomes available
• If you do not perform the steps that are required to be completed before you go on to register you will likely either not be able to complete registration before a sellout occurs or you will have an incomplete registration which will cause a loss of your registration priority based upon time of sign-up
• Your card will not be charged when you sign-up (though the number will be collected)
• You must monitor your e-mail regularly and be prepared to respond within 24 hours (8 hours the week of the event) to any inquiries you may receive or you will lose your priority
• Plan to check your Dashboard on MotorsportReg about 2 weeks after registration opens to view your status  
• Waitlist Confirmed means that you have not turned in your tech form yet.  Waitlist New means you are waitlisted and waiting for a space to open up.
• If you are Waitlist New, we do expect movement on the Waitlist as Confirmed participant cancellations occur

Only two day registration is available for this event, though you may attend only one of the two days if you wish   The base price for this event (assumes early registration, no need to rent anything, etc.) is $290 for the weekend.  Track time per entrant is expected to be approximately 3 hours, and traffic is anticipated to be low so everyone should be able to get tons of flying laps.  Our $/hour ratio is among the lowest of any group, making it a great deal, especially when you factor in the quality aspect.  See the Payment section below for more info.

To register we require that you join the PCA - San Diego group here on MotorsportReg.com (note:  this just means adding PCA - San Diego to your list of Clubs on MotorsportReg; it does not make you a member of PCA).  Regardless of which region of PCA you belong to or if you don't belong to PCA at all, you must join the SDR group on this web site (again, doing so will not make you a member of PCA).  This will be done as a step in the registration process.  Non-Porsches that meet our rules are welcome!!!

Physical Damage Insurance:  Insurance for your car is available for this event via Lockton Affinity, LLC, PCA's exclusively endorsed insurance provider.  Note that liability coverage is not included and Time Trial Timed Runs now appear to be insurable for an additional charge.  This insurance is strictly optional.  Be sure to read all the fine print.  For more info click https://locktonmotorsports.com/events and search for Chuckwalla October 17-18.

Lap Times and Event Info on your Mobile Phone:  You may sign-up for our mobile phone timing and notification system as part of your registration for this event.  For a Standard subscription (lap times for your car, notifications of postings for your run group, and important announcements), simply check the box that says you do not want a Custom subscription.  Even if you do not wish to take advantage of this service, you MUST have your mobile phone number on file with MotorsportReg in the Mobile/Cell field of your profile or your registration will not be processed.  Having your mobile number in any other field while leaving the Mobile/Cell field blank amounts to not having your mobile number in the system.  Again, your registration is not valid until this has been completed and others registering after you will be prioritized ahead of you.  To check or input this, sign in, then click the “My Account” tab, then click “My Profiles”, click on your name, then click “Edit My Information”.  Enter your mobile phone number into the field titled “Mobile/Cell” – even if you already have it in other fields – then click “Save My Information”.

Event Hotel:  Best Western Date Tree Hotel, 81909 Indio Boulevard, Indio, CA  92201, (760) 347-3421.  The rate is normally around $80/night, but due to other events in the area it may be significantly higher or even sold out.  Ask for the Chuckwalla Race Track rate or the best available, in case they have a better offer at the time you call.  If the Best Western is not available, check out Rodeway Inn & Suites, 82275 Indio Boulevard, Indio, CA  92201, (760) 775-2229.  Alternatively, check out Blythe, about the same distance from the track as Indio, but in the opposite direction (east of the track).  Or see the next section regarding renting a cabin at the track.  It is suggested that you call any hotel soon and directly, rather than using any travelnow.com or other links that may appear to the right, in order to get the best rate.

Camping at the Track:  You may camp at the track Friday and Saturday nights.  Please phone Chuckwalla Valley Raceway to make arrangements.  There may be fees payable to the track in order to camp.  The track has cabins available for on-site lodging.  Click here for more info.

Late Registration:  You must register with credit card on file by 11:59 pm September 27th to receive the discounted online rate; after that a $50 late fee applies through October 4th.  Online registration closes at 11:59 pm October 4th, after which even higher registration fees apply (though space is unlikely to be available at that time).

Payment:  You MUST use a credit card to pay if registering online, VISA, MasterCard, Discover preferred, though we do accept AMEX.  For complete event pricing details proceed with registration steps.  You will have a chance to confirm (or abort) after you make your selections.  Card billed AFTER the event.
