About this event
After much anticipation, the ALSCCA will open the season with a Test and Tune event to help you knock off that off-season rust! For those of you who are interested in learning more about performance driving, this will be your opportunity to have some instruction without the competition being on the line! Become a student of the sport!
The test and tune format will have a timing board displaying time, but there will not be any live timing available for this event. You will have to work an hour on the course during the event and have the rest of the day to experiment or practice with your car.
If you're interested in being a driving instructor please reach out to me (The Registrar) and I'll get you placed in the workings. If you want to do some personal Test and Tune AND be an instructor, this can also be beneficial as it will reduce your cost of entry for Test and Tune as well as have your car available if you would like for a student to ride with you.
The waiver station will be closed after the course goes hot. ~ 8:45am We will be operating on a skeleton crew to allow for the most runs as possible for everyone who attends. Be sure you and your guests arrive early to obtain your wristband, or you simply won't be allowed in.
On Sunday, (February 16th, 2024, this event will be followed up by ALSCCA PTS 1 Autocross so you can put your new refinements or knowledge to the test in Sunday's competition!
