These events generally fall under the catcha ll name \"AutoCross\". Basically, an autocross is a relatively low-spe ed competition driving event in which one driver at a time negotiates a twisty course. Maximum speeds on course are approximately 60 MPH in production-based vehicles. The course is defined using traffic cones t o make gates which define slaloms and sweeping turns. Scoring is usual ly based upon raw times within classes of similarly equipped vehicles. Runs are timed to the thousandth of a second using sensors at the sta rt and finish. Autocross is often best described as a competition of p recision driving. \nWhile speeds are generally no greater than those e ncountered in highway driving, the combination of concentration and pr ecision maneuvering leaves many drivers with their heart racing and ha nds trembling from adrenaline after a run.\nAlthough there are many wa ys to go autocross and the effort can be as easy or as intense as you want, the basics of going autocrossing are simple.\n\n\nWhat you need\ nDriver's License: Unless you're entering one of the Karting classes, you will need a current driver's license to enter an SCCA Solo event. Bring it with you to show the people working registration you're good to go.\n\nHelpful tip -- If you are under 18, you will need both your parents to sign a minor waiver for you.\n\nVehicle in good working ord er: Although autocrossing doesn't require the same safety gear that yo u might see in race cars, you will need to make sure that your car (or kart) is in good shape with no loose/worn suspension parts, your car battery is securely held in place, your tires have no cord or metal sh owing, your car's brakes and seatbelts are in good shape and it has no big fluid leaks.\nHelpful tip -- When you get to an event, the tech i nspector will make sure your car is ready to go.\n\nHelmet: You will n eed a helmet when you're driving on course, but you can usually use a \"loaner\" helmet provided by the host Region of the event. If you bri ng your own, it has to meet certain safety standards -- more than just \"DOT-Approved.\" The most common certifications are Snell \"M\" and \"SA\" and need to have the number 2005 or higher after the letters. E CE R22.05 certified helmets are also allowed and are common at motorcy cle shops.\n\nSolo Event Information\n• Schedule for 8:00 AM start ( NOTE: Events with a different start time will shift accordingly)\n• Registration -- 8:00 AM -- 9:30 AM\n• Tech Inspection -- 8:00 AM -- 9:40 AM\n• Walk course -- 8:30 AM -- 9:45 AM\n• Novice Meeting/Wal k -- 9:00 AM -- 9:45 AM\n• Mandatory Driver's Meeting -- 9:45 AM\n†¢ First car off -- 10:00 AM\n• Cost is $35 for SCCA members and $50 for non-members.
