Proving Grounds DRIVER Pre-Registration Options:

Autocross Friday & Saturday.
Test your driving skills at the Proving Grounds AutoX. Unlike any other auto-x event you've been to, this one you wont need to work or pickup cones. Simply show up and drive!
Friday cap- 120 regular entries and 30 entries with working.  
Saturday cap- 70 regular entries and 30 entries with working.  
(You can only buy one entry per day, no 2 entries for 1 driver, Sorry Dustin)

SELLING YOUR ENTRY IS NO LONGER ALLOWED.  If you cant make it for whatever reason, you must put in your cancellation request via MotorSportReg BEFORE Pre-Reg Closes. 
If you show up late and miss the Drivers Meeting, YOU CAN NOT RUN.  Please be on time and plan accordingly.  This is for the safety of everyone at the event (You miss the meeting you miss important information).

AutoX WITH working option-  New for this year we will have 30 spots per day for an entry WITH working at a discounted price - you will be refunded $30 after the event.  Working = working a corner and shagging cones.  Please- if you have NEVER competed and/or worked an autocross before, don't sign up to help work (Do a few events first so you know how things flow).

GO! You have one lap and an open track all to yourself, no traffic.

Registering for multiple events- This can be done, but do keep in mind you and your car will be a busy bee and you may miss out on some track time if the two events overlap. This is something you will have to live with.

**All competitors will be assigned a car number upon checking in at the event.  There will no longer be an option to register with a custom number.**

ALL Cancelations will be subject to a 10% fee and must be notified 72 hours prior (READ- PRIOR as in BEFORE) to the event.  NO EXCEPTIONS!
