About this event
Think you're a fast driver? Then come prove it at a StratoCross time trials competition!
This competition will take place on a very technical layout at the locally famous Stratotech Park race track, just 15 minutes north of Edmonton. To add to the difficulty, a few pylon marked autocross elements will be added throughout the course.
StratoCross time trials show who the best drivers are in the Edmonton area, while developing new drivers into fierce competitors! All are welcome to compete. We will be using an Autocross Pax classing system that places a handicap on faster cars to keep things even, along with a Raw scoring system (no handicap) to see who has the fastest car along with the skill to drive it.
Awards given out to top spots!
If you've always wanted to get into competitive racing, but with a low risk of damaging your car, this competition is for you! Whether it's in your daily driver or a highly modified car, you can come out and compete at a StratoCross time trails competition!
Fee: $85 per driver
*This event is limited to the first 26 to register. Cancellations are fully refundable up to 24 hours before the event start.
Layout: Skill will take precedence over horsepower on this course! Pylon marked Autocross elements will be setup near marshall stations. In the event of rain, the course and marshall stations will be adjusted to accommodate it.
