If you’re interested in getting in on the Solo Annual Registration program (9 events for the price of 7), it’s not too late!! Just follow the link for more information -

In addition, we’ve got a Test-N-Tune/Practice event at the same site the day before on the Saturday. The test-n-tune will be from 9am to 4pm. You get to make as many runs as you like (or as long as your tires last). There will be a timed course plus a couple of course tuning areas. We plan on having the Division’s scales onsite if you would like to weigh your car. Scales will only be available if the approved operators are available at the time.
Your car will have to be Tech’d before being allowed to run the test-n-tune. Note: Entry fee is “per person” Not “per car”.
