About this event
Doing sportscar things with sportscar friends
Join us on Monday May 6th, 2024 for a Time Trials track day at Mission Raceway Park
Gates open at 7:00am with on-track activities from 8:45am - 4:00pm.
Time Trials events are open to both new and experienced drivers looking to join a community, improve their driving, learn safe track etiquette, and have a fun day. Compared to a Lapping or HPDE event, Time Trials limits each track session to 3 full hot-laps and offers an increased number of sessions per day. This format reduces the peak temperatures your car sees and reduces overall costs.
Instruction will be provided to the novice group in either a lead-follow format or in-vehicle instruction. This will allow you to safely become acclimatized to the track. In order to focus on instruction and learning the track, the novice group will not be timed for their first event.

Vehicle Numbers
We know a few drivers would like to secure their vehicle number for all events. For this reason we would like to give you the option of reserving a number for the 2024 year! Those who purchase a number will have that number for all events in 2024 (if someone has a number in the event and you pay to reserve it after the fact, you will now be given that number and the other driver will be asked to select a new one).
