Fall Finale Autocross/60th Anniversary Bash

ACU-4 Little Creek Amphibious Base

About this event

Welcome to the TSCC Fall Finale/60th Anniversary Bash!

Registration will open 9/18.

Registration will close on 10/9 (9 days prior to the event). After that time NO registrations can be accepted due to the requirement to submit our access list 10 working days before the event.  There will be NO walkups accepted.

Note:  While an active/retired military ID or Common Access Card can grant you access to a government installation, out of consideration for our host command we require all participants and attendees to be registered so we can provide the information to base security.

This event is hosted on the Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story in Virginia Beach, Virginia.  The course will be laid out on approximately 800,000 sq ft of well maintained concrete directly on the Chesapeake Bay.

 

Everyone attending the event as competitor, support crew or spectator MUST pre-register on-line in order to gain access to the facility.  Failure to do so will result in your inability to gain access to the facility.  TSCC will not be able to get unregistered competitors and spectators onto the facility and will not issue a refund for individuals unable to access the facility due to not providing the proper information prior to registration closing 1 week prior to the event.  When registering Minors list 'CHILD' in the Drivers License Number Field.

 

Spectators can register at no cost.

The entry fee for competitors is $50.  This includes both days of competition.  Payments will not be charged until the week before the event.

Entry is limited to 150 people.  Subsequent entries will be placed on a wait list and will be notified as soon as spot becomes available.

The event will be run the same as our normal event.  Unique car numbers for every car, heats organized by car number.
