Thunderbolt at NJMP

Thunderbolt Raceway

About this event

Join NNJR for two great days at the Thunderbolt circuit at New Jersey Motorsports Park.   It is an excellent facility and a great venue.

This event is currently planned to be an instructed event to include all student groups.

All attendees will be required to follow applicable Federal, State, and Local Government CDC COVID 19 guidelines which may include but not limited to the use of hand sanitizer, wearing of masks and sanitation procedures. Additional requirements and information regarding these compliance policies will be announced [and made available on the NNJR website]

The two full days are open to all driving enthusiasts and marques except open-wheeled cars. Non-PCA welcome.
For all participants safety, NNJR has contracted for the highest level of EMT/ambulance support, which is a significant expense.  Not all organizations provide this higher level of coverage.

No partial (one day) registrations are accepted. No refunds will be granted after May 14. No event credits in MotorsportReg will be issued after May 21.

You will need a MotorsportReg account to register.  If you don’t have one, you can create one at any time.  Just go back to the previous main page and click on the “Create Account” tab above the event list.

If your registration group shows "wait-listed", register anyway.   Do not register for another group if your initial group/registration is wait-listed.  For students, we want to make sure we have enough instructors before letting everyone in.  The earlier you sign up, the better chance you have.  With few exceptions, everyone who registers on Day 1 eventually gets accepted, just be patient.

At this point, registrations for Green, Yellow and Blue are discouraged as we have 10+ student drivers on the waiting list.

If you are wait-listed, please check your status frequently, as the Registrar will move you off of the wait list as spots open up. This is especially true for instructed groups as we can add additional students after additional instructors register. 

If you haven’t already opted in to receive event text messages from NNJR, please consider doing so at the end of the registration application. Note that in contrast to many organizations, our only use of this service is to send critical communications at the track e.g., schedule changes.  The PA cannot always be heard in the paddock. You can opt out at any time.

Event requirements

National PCA has mandated the use of a head and neck restraint device (HANS) when the car is equipped with a harness system.

Participants must be at least 18 years old, and have a valid driver's license. Snell M or SA rated 2015 or 2020 FULLFACE helmets are required (SA Highly Recommended). . Per the State Police, Snell 2010 cannot be used at NJMP.

911 Cabriolets with pop-up roll hoops are not permitted at either NJMP track without additional rollover protection i.e., aftermarket roll hoop or cage.

Your car must pass a pre-event tech inspection.  Mandatory Tech Inspection information including requirements, location, date, forms can be found here:  Safety Tech Info and Form .    This information also will be distributed with the acceptance/confirmation email package. Out-of -Region participants may have their car inspected by their Region's tech inspectors as in the previous link.  All participants need to use the NNJR tech form.

You will need a credit card to register (this "holds" your registration, similar to making a reservation at a hotel). Your card will not be charged until a week or so before the event.

If your registration group shows "wait-listed",  register anyway, you are very likely to get accepted into the event.  Acceptance is based on the date and time logged on the registration system. If you are wait-listed, please check your status frequently, as the Registrar will move you off of the wait list as spots open up. This is especially true for instructed groups as we can add additional students after additional instructors register.
