About this event
Join us for our Spring Autocross on the Black Lake at the Michelin Proving Grounds. This is an all-day event, and we will run rain or shine. Michelin is a great venue with plenty of room, no obstacles, and lots of runs. The Peachtree Chapter will be helping us out, and we are very appreciative. This will be a real Autocross, you will be required to help throughout the day. We will be limiting entries so we can get each of you as many runs as we possibly can. Lunch is included in your registration fee, and we will eat on site.
It is not required that you enter a BMW, and convertibles are allowed.

Vehicle Class:
You must determine your vehicle's class BEFORE registering. The classification worksheet is linked below. If you have gone through the classification worksheet and need clarification on your vehicle's classification, please contact the registrar before event registration closes. You must classify your vehicle correctly to receive any points towards series standings. If you don't care to be classed, select "other" when asked for car class.

Once you figure out your class, read both of the following;
AX_Terminology_and_FAQ_2021-02-05 (1).docx
AX_Timelines_and_Duties_2019-03-10 (1).docx
You will have the ability to select your car number, if you have magnets or a favorite number. Otherwise we will use tape for car numbers. Numbers are to be placed on both rear side windows/doors. If you are sharing a car, both sets of numbers must be on the car.
A catered lunch is included in your registration fee. You will receive a meal ticket in your folder. Additional tickets may be purchased at registration for $15 each. Children under 10 may eat for free.
Once we check your classing and registration information, we will adjust your registration status from "new" to either confirmed or waitlisted. We will move waitlisted people to confirmed without notice should we have cancellations. If you fail to read the above documents, and your registration comes in incomplete, we will not move you to confirmed, and should the event fill before you make corrections, you could end up on the waitlist. So, read the info
INSTRUCTORS- Yes we are charging you, but you will have the same number of runs as everyone else. If we need you, we will try to have you work with someone in the opposite group. Instructors will not need to shag cones.!!!
Check-in at the venue will begin at 8 am or earlier. All participants must be checked in no later than 9:00 am.
Sharing a car? You must both be registered and on the confirmed list. If one of you is confirmed and the second is not, you will not be able to share the car. We will not allow more than 2 people to share a car. Both parties must indicate on your registration who will be sharing your car.
We will be sending out emails prior to the event with specific details regarding check-in and car prep. Please keep an eye out.
