This event has three registration options – Track Day - Novice, Track Day - Experience, and Time Trial. Please choose the correct element during the registration process:

  • Track Day - Novice (NG) element is open to novices with little or no track experience. This will help you improve your track skills and knowledge. This is simular to HPDE or PDX in other programs. NG drivers will participate in classroom sessions covering track driving concepts, flagging, etiquette, and more. Also there is track time to practice what you have learned with lead-follow. When you are ready, you will be signed off to solo. This will also earn you a SCCA Time Trial Novice license. You are required to sign up for this if you have not been signed off to solo on track with SCCA or another group.
  • Track Day - Experience (EG) is for those who have been signed off to solo by our novice group or other driving groups and would like to have some fun with their car on track or time to practice before starting competition. 
  • The Time Trials (TT) element is a timed event (SCCA level 2 Track Event), with the option to participate in the 2022 Time Trials Championship Series.
    • Driver qualification for Time Trials will be as follows:

Please take a look at the changes in car classing for the 2022 season. Texas Region SCCA Time Trial is using the SCCA National Time Trial car classing. Here is the National TT link to find you car classing: National SCCA TT Car Classing. It helps to start with what modifications you have made to your car, start with that category and use the drill down to find you classing. Here is a breakdown of car makes and models for the Sport and Tuner classes (see tabs for each category):  2022 TT Classing. Open-Wheel Race Cars that are not explicitly classed in the National Time Trials Rules are not permitted at Texas Region SCCA Time Trials events. If you have a "non production car" please contact Sherrie to see if you qualify. If you have any questions, please email Sherrie Ledbetter .

Everyone on site at our events must sign the SCCA insurance waiver and wear the provided wristband. Minor waivers are available for anyone under 18 accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. SCCA members, including minors, have the option to complete a digital annual waiver ahead of time instead of signing the paper waiver on site. The process is quick, simple, and free: Digital Annual Waiver Instructions. Note: Your my.scca.com profile picture, not the photo submitted with the annual waiver, will be shown on your membership card. A profile picture that is wider than it is tall may be shown sideways on your membership card, so cropping it before uploading is suggested.
