NTAXS Autocross #5, 7/24/2010, Texas Motor Speedway Bus Lot
Autocross #5 was originally scheduled for October, but we had to reschedule it for July. While it is the fourth event of this season, it is still labeled Autocross #5.
The North Texas Autocross Series (NTAXS), presented by the North Texas S2000 Owners Club (NTS2KOC), is hosting our fourth event of the 2010 autocross season on Saturday, July 24th, 2010 at Texas Motor Speedway in North Fort Worth.

The event is limited to 60 drivers, so sign up early.
