The Arctic Alaska Region, of the Sports Car Club of America, will be sanctioning a Drivers School on April 29, 2023 followed by Points Event #1 on April 30, 2023. If you are new to the sport, we are eager to introduce you to autocross on Saturday! If you have driven with us previously, our instructors are excited to help you further develop your skills on Saturday for the coming year! Sunday will be our timed driving competition through a course laid out with pylons (traffic cones) giving each entrant as many runs each day that we can fit in, for their best scored time! We are excited to announce that for the 2023 season going forward we will be contesting a Teen class as a parallel class for young drivers 19yrs and younger including both women and men. Come join your fellow Alaskan driving enthusiasts for a year of fun with cars!

You will then prepare your car for tech inspection (self tech with guidance).
Please arrive early to allow time to settle your gear, prepare your car, and get through Tech Inspection. Remember, all loose items will need to be out of your car and your battery will need to be solidly secured—no bungee cords!
Our Driver's Meeting will include a brief talk by the Safety Steward and the Solo Team will cover the responsibilities each of you will have while working corners during your "work group"! This event is a go—rain or shine—and as you'll be working opposite your "run group" please bring hats, layers for body warmth, sunblock, and foot wear for the elements.
Water will be provided by the Region. We recomend you bring snacks and a lunch on Sunday. LUNCH IS NOT PROVIDED ON SUNDAY, and their are limited options for food near venue.
