TAC and TVR Autocross Series Event 8 info on Sep 17, 2017 (577541) | MotorsportReg.com

The 2017 Twickenham Auto Club and Tennessee Valley Region SCCA Autocross Series

You're invited to participate in TAC/TVR's autocross series. Autocross is a timed competition through a road course marked by cones. Your single fastest run is used to determine your position. Your car will be classed with similar cars to keep competition fair and emphasize improving driving skill. If you're not quite ready to drive, you're welcome to stop by and ask for a ride-a-long. We have many expert drivers willing to help you get started.
 

UPDATE 9/12/2017 -- LUNCH

We will have the Sweet Dixie Barbecue food truck on site during lunch at this event! https://www.facebook.com/sweetdixiebbq

Run Groups

Efficiency is a priority with TAC and TVR -- we aim to provide the maximum number of runs possible! We typically use a "2 run group" format, however as attendance approaches 100 drivers we will likely use a "3 run group" format. The final number of run groups will be decided by the Event Master and announced at the drivers meeting.

Championship Series Points

The Championship Series will determine the most consistently outstanding drivers for the year within a class and Top 10 PAX and RAW. You will accrue points for all the events you participated in as long as you become a member of TAC or TVR by the final event of the year. You must also compete in more than half of the points events of the year and in a single class to earn points. Further details can be found in our autocross rules here: 2017 Official Autocross Schedule and Rules
 

Novices and the Novice Championship

We welcome all new drivers to our events. If this is your first year autocrossing (or if you have minimal experience), you may register in our Novice class. If you have never autocrossed, we strongly recommend you enter the Novice class and attend our Novice Walk-thru. During the Novice Walk-thru a veteran driver will show you the basics and give course-specific tips. Entering the Novice class is in no way a restriction -- you may actually get more exposure. Please review the following:

An open letter for all novices: Letter
NEW Novice Guide: Novice Guide

NEW Novice class drivers will be able to qualify for the year-end Novice Championship event. The winner of the Novice Championship will receive a free Season Pass and Membership! Details about how to win will be posted here: Novice Championship
 

Classing

Our events follow SCCA classing rules. Classing tables for most cars can be found in Appendix A of the rules. If you are have further questions, feel free to ask on our very active forum HERE. We sell numbers/letters on site for $1 each.
 

Loaner Helmets

We have loaner helmets available on site which you can use for free. We require head socks to be worn -- these can be purchased at registration for $1 and they are yours to keep.
