This competition weekend consists of fourteen low-speed autocross events. These will be hosted on the 7.4 acre NOLA Autocross skid pad, to be run on Saturday and Sunday. Entrance to the track will open at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday with entrant check-in and tech beginning at 7:00 am. There will be no class changes after cars are teched; unless the car breaks and the break is verified by “tech”. For the convenience of our entrants, rigs and/or Corvettes can be left at the track on both Friday and Saturday nights.

If you prefer to walk the course, it should be done prior to the drivers meeting however; a parade lap will be provided immediately following the Driver’s Meeting.

Are you interested in enjoying the track (road course) that our Convention high-speed event will be run on. Please check the last page of this flyer for a NOLA Track Day event being held on Friday, December 1, 2017.
