About this event
This is a Club Trials (PDX Level 2) event per SCCA time trial rules. SCCA Performance Driving Experience events (PDX) are designed to concentrate on driver enjoyment, philosophy, and the application of performance driving techniques. PDX is a non-competitive event. SCCA Club Trials (CT) events provide a constructive learning environment that stresses proper driving techniques, while at the same time offering a timed event. This event offers both PDX and Club Trials options for participants.
Additionally, in 2017 Texas Region SCCA is offering a Club Trials Championship series, where points are earned for each Club Trial throughout the year.
This event has two elements - PDX, and Club Trial. Please choose the correct element during the registration process:
- The PDX element is open to novices with little or no track experience. PDX drivers will have an instructor assigned to them for the day.
