As always, we will have a novice course walk for both beginners and experienced drivers as well as plenty of instructors for ride alongs. PCA members with sons/daughters, nieces/nephews or even grandkids that are at least 16 years old and have their driver’s licenses (not permits), can drive as part of PCA”s Junior Participation Program. At only $45 for PCA members, this is a great opportunity to allow you to experience the handling limits of your vehicle . Unlike other autocross programs in the area, we limit the number of drivers to 60 which means that everyone will get 1 practice run and up to 10 timed runs. Participants will be divided into “classes” based on the characteristics of their cars and the winner of each class will receive a beautiful award plaque.
