Picture
  •  

designed specifically for street cars, ROAD TRIP EVENTS ARE formatted TO BE FUN, INTERACTIVE AND SOCIAL.

Road Trip events are designed to be fun, interactive and social street car events.  Although some competition may take place, the emphasis is on driving your vehicle, and enjoying hanging out with the other like-minded car folks.  

IS THE AUTOCROSS TIMED
  • Each segment of the event will be timed to 0.00.00. There is no maximum number of runs. Winners will be the vehicles with the lowest time.
    • Because this is all about fun, the top three (3) fastest times of the day will be awarded a Silver Cup into which they must place a donation that will be given to a deserving charity.
      1. Winner donation - $50
      2. Runner – up donation - $35
      3. Third place donation - $15
    • In the event that a sponsor or sponsor employee has one of the three fastest times of the day, the donation noted above shall be doubled.
WHAT DO I GET IT I WIN?
  • Any participant that is deemed too competitive, whiney, or to be of a general complaining nature; or trailers their vehicle, polishes it excessively or sits in a lawn chair during the autocross, may be publicly shamed or ridiculed – all in good fun, of course.
