WE RECOMMEND THAT ALL PARTICIPANTS ARE FULLY VACCINATED BY THE DATE OF THE EVENT
Geoff Atkinson Memorial Driver School and Club Race: Please come join us for the Tenth Annual Geoff Atkinson Memorial Driver School and Club Race. We are planning a special celebration of our friend Geoff Atkinson - please come out and make this an event to remember. Our annual combined Driver School and Club race at Summit Point Raceway has become the NJ Chapter’s second tradition (behind our June race/school). Summit Point Raceway is in the rolling hills of the northeast corner of West Virginia near Harper’s Ferry. While West Virginia sounds like a long drive, for many NJ members it is, in fact, not any further driving time than to Palmer or Watkins Glen. The School and the Club Race divide track time between student run groups in the School and Race run groups. So, when you’re not on the track or in the classroom, you can take time to watch the racing.
We anticipate having 3 student groups for this school! Come on out for plenty of open track and small run groups!
Please note also that we will allow open face helmets (Snell2015 or newer) for this event.
Advanced Solo students and instructors: our friends at National Capital Chapter are hosting an event on Friday July 14th, with two groups of participants: Instructors and solo students running open track and Test and Tune for Club Racers in a separate run group. Make it 3 days on track! Attendance is limited so register now: NCC Friday Event
