Itching to fine tune that new suspension setup? Go find yourself a set of practice tires and be prepared to finish them off in one weekend. We'll have unlimited runs for everyone from ~9:30am to ~4:30pm, each day.

When: Saturday, June 16th, and Sunday June 17th

Gate opens: 9:00am
First car out: ~9:30am
Gate closes: 2:30pm (Show up to register, pay, and have your car inspected anytime until 2:30pm)
Event tear-down: ~4:30pm (Volunteers needed!)

Cost: $15/day for members and $20/day for non-members (each day).
$20/weekend for members, $30/weekend for non-members.

Please make sure that you bring your completed insurance form. Also, bring your dues if you are interested in joining the club. The cost is $15 for the semester, $25 for the year and $100 for a lifetime membership. Remember, if you sign up as a member on the day of the event, you will be able to pay member rates for the autocross practice session as well. A club membership pays for itself over time!

There is no online registration for practice events. Just show up with your money, get teched and drive!

FYI, the TAMSCC is currently prohibited from running events with standing water on the runway, per University regulations.

Given the 80% Chance of T-storms throughout Saturday, it is most likely that we won't have an event on Saturday. A final decision will be posted here by 8pm this evening. We may or may not cancel the practice for Sunday, but will not make that call until it is appropriate to do so.

For those of you coming in from out of town, please check back here later this evening for further updates...

Sunday's event has also been cancelled:

We are going to go ahead and cancel the practice for tomorrow as well in light of the fact that there is already some water at Riverside from some scattered storms and the possibility of rain tonight and tomorrow morning.

We will do our best to reschedule another weekend this summer so that we can get in 3 separate practice weekends. So keep checking the forum and we will let you know as soon as and if we schedule another event.

As it stands now, the next practice session is on July 21, so make sure to mark your calenders and pray for a better forecast.
