CAL CLUB Autocross-Champ Day, August 6, 2023 info on Aug 6, 2023 (178988) | MotorsportReg.com

We're back!  Cal Club SCCA Autocross is excited to announce we'll be continuing our 2023 season on August 6th with a single day event at Storm Stadium in Lake Elsinore, CA.  

We will be running our typical Champ Day Autocross Event format. We will be selling a limited number of X-Runs (4 extra laps) packages for those looking for a bit of additional seat time..

Autocross, aka Solo, is a timed competition that challenges drivers to a course marked by cones laid out on an asphalt parking lot or a concrete aircraft runway. Safety is emphasized because cars enter the course one at a time and are spaced out to minimize risks to competitors and event workers. A key emphasis is placed on handling and car control, which breeds some of the most intense competition down to the hundredth or thousandth of a second! Learn more about us at solo2.com.

Cal Club Autocross is sanctioned by the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA). The event open to all SCCA members. If you’re not an SCCA member, do not worry. During the online registration process, you can buy a weekend membership (and that fee can be applied towards an annual membership should you decide to join later!).

How and What to Register For

You may register online for a discounted fee, or you may register on-site at the event for a higher fee. For the Champ Day segment, you can register in a class based upon your car and modifications, or you can register to run Time Only (if you register TO, you will not be able to choose when you run/work). A work assignment is required. 

An extra set of 4 runs (called X-runs) may be available on-site for $30 (no additional work is required when you purchase X-runs). Your normal runs (in class or Time Only) must be purchased and completed prior to taking X-runs. X-Runs may be taken in the same group as your normal runs, but the group you take your X-runs in is based on first come-first serve during check-in at the event.
