If you aren't already an SCCA member, you can add an SCCA Weekend Membership for $15 more. Online payment is required, but your card won't be charged until the day of the event.

We are running a special at this event! Join the SCCA for the first time and you drive that day for FREE! Cost to join SCCA is $50 if you are under 24, $80 for a regular membership. (If you are driving both days you pay the member rate for the second day)
All competitors will need to come by the Registration Tent upon arrival — both those who registered online and those who choose to register at the event Sunday morning. Note that Registration is only open for 60-minutes. You will then head to Tech for your vehicle inspection.
Our Driver's Meeting will include a brief talk by the Safety Steward and the Solo Team will cover the responsibilities each of your will have while working corners during your "work group"! This is event is a go—rain or shine—and as you'll be working opposite your "run group" please bring hats, layers for body warmth, sunblock, and foot wear for the elements.
We will be taking a one-hour lunch break. There are no restaurants nearby, so it is highly encouraged that you pack a lunch.
Please arrive early to allow time to settle your gear, prepare your car, and get through Tech Inspection before the Novice Walk-Thru. Remember, all loose items will need to be out of your car and your battery will need to be solidly secured—no bungee cords!
Don't forget your Driver's License!
