Triad Sports Car Club is Proud to Announce the Cross Trial Shootout, Saturday, September 25th at the Danville Airport, Danville, Va. The Shootout will be similar to a ProSolo with a 32 car field. It will consist of a Double Elimination Bracket in which pairs of cars will run on circular Double Cross style courses. Each pairing will run a best 2 out of 3 runs, alternating lanes on the first 2 runs and the slower class or last winner having lane choice if a 3rd run is needed. The winner advances in a winner’s bracket and the loser falls into a last chance bracket. You must lose 2 pairings to be eliminated from the Shootout. The Competitor hitting the most cones loses that round. There are no time penalties for hitting ones as there will be no timers. 2 judges will judge the finish line and any finish too close to call will rerun that race. Each Bracket will run until only 4 remain. The 4 Last Chance Bracket Winners will each then challenge the 4 Winners Bracket Finalists until only 1 car is left.
Classes will be grouped into 8 sub-Classes based on the 2019 PAX each group will have its own Handicapped starting line.
The following groups are SAMPLES of starting line groups.
Group 1- All Mods, FSAE, KM
Group 2- XP, BP, DP, FP, SSM
Group 3- CP, EP, SM, ASP
Group 4- BSP, CSP, SMF, SS
Group 5- ESP, DSP, AS, BS, GP, CAM

This will be grassroots racing at its best, think Pinks Vs ProSolo. This event will require prepayment to hold your registration.

Some items to consider are:
- Clean out any loose items in the car (including the trunk): things like cell phones cables, garage door openers, loose change and such.
- The battery has to be properly secured.
- If your floor mats are not physically attached to carpet, they will have to be removed. We don’t want the floor mat to bunch up under the brake or gas.
- Hubcaps and center caps on wheels should be removed. If your hubcaps mount to the wheel and are held in place by the lug nuts, then they can stay on, otherwise they should be removed.
- Have a SNELL approved helmet, 2005 or newer (M-rated or SA-rated).
- Check basic fluids such as oil, coolant, and brake.
- Make sure you torque the lug nuts to manufacturer's recommended tightness.
- Make sure you have no active leaks on the motor, transmission or diff. Oil on the track is a bad thing.
- Check tire pressure. If you don’t know what to set it to, a good starting point is typically 40 psi.
- You WILL experience greater than normal tire wear. Your tires MUST be serviceable, meaning they have appropriate tread, no chords showing, etc.
