About this event
Join us on Friday, June 15, 2018 for the VCMC Track Day #2 at Area 27 hosted by VCMC Motorsport Club. Area 27 is a 16-turn, 4.83 km long permanent road racing circuit.
VCMC, continues to offer great value to track day participants by providing tons of seat time, and professional track marshals to keep the event safe, fun, and efficient.
Our track events are open to drivers of various experience levels. Drivers are grouped by experience to ensure that all the drivers and vehicles in each session are evenly matched.
If you are new to track racing and want to attend we will require you to register and complete our May 28 lapping day where you will be signed off to drive alone by one of our instructors. If you have not driven with VCMC before, exceptions can be made with proof of experience.
Lapping groups will fall into 4 categories. Relaxed, Intermediate, Advanced, and Race License. The first 3 listed will be with pace car due to the requirements of Area 27. If you have attended an accredited race school and possess a race license you are allowed to run in the race license group without a pace car, also this allows you to be a pace car. Please contact us if you are interested.

Vehicle Requirements
Vehicles must undergo a compliance check at the track before being permitted to run. This is not a full mechanical inspection. It is ultimately the driver's responsibility to ensure that the vehicle is safe and meets all of the requirements.
All convertibles, including those with mechanically retractable hard tops, must run with approved roll over protection (ie. roll bars / roll cages) in place. Factory roll hoops (such as those found in the 3rd gen Miata and S2000) do not qualify as adequate roll over protection.
