Spring Track Event (PDX)

Dakota County Technical College

About this event

October 2018--if you landed here it is because we forgot to change the hyperlink.  Either call or text me (Kathy) at 612-839-7905 if you want to register.

We have need of volunteers, who will get to drive the track the last 2 hours of the day; Call me if you are a driver--we are nearly full and I don't want to overbook the track.

Our 2019 Spring Track Event will be on

Sunday, April 14, 2019

Mark your calendar!           

Sorry--we are full.  If you'd like to get on a Waitlist please continue.  Your credit card WILL NOT be charged unless you check in and get on track.

Getting on a waitlist is a good idea.  We often have last-minute cancellations.  So if you are interested, scroll down and click "continue".  I'll let you know if we can get you on track.

PDX (Performance Driving Experience)
Presented by Land O’ Lakes Region, SCCA
Sunday, April th at Dakota County Technical College

 This is your opportunity to discover the joys of Performance Driving!

(Scroll down and click "Continue" on each page to complete your registration)

A PDX event provides the unique opportunity to bring your car on a real track.

Do you want to improve your driving skills? Come for instruction from trained instructors, who happen to be racecar drivers themselves.

And if you just like cars, go ahead and register.  We'll get you started as a volunteer.  One BIG benefit is you can take your car on track in the afternoon session, and even have an instructor ride along (no cost!)  So scroll down and click continue to register as a volunteer.  And if you want to drive, read on and also continue.

Fee:  SCCA members:  $150; Non-members are $165 (including weekend membership)

You get a full day on the track, classroom and instructor ride-along (advanced drivers can request this but it's not required)

Do you want to learn how to better control your car at a higher rate of speed than is legal on public roads? Here's your opportunity to go fast and not worry about getting a ticket in a safe environment. Plus you WILL become a better driver!

All you need to participate in a PDX event is a registered streetcar, valid drivers license, and a helmet (and we have loaners if you need one).

First and foremost, a PDX event is about you driving your car. Our primary focus is the safety of you and your car. Getting you as much seat time as possible with instruction is our next goal, that way you can become more comfortable behind the wheel of your car at speed.

Should I do anything before I arrive at a Track Day (PDX)?

Car and Driver magazine has recently published an excellent guide to preparing for a track day: How To: Go to a Track Day – Feature

If you are not sure your car is ready for the use it will see on a racetrack, we suggest you take your vehicle to a technician who is skilled enough to evaluate your vehicle for track use. You should also plan to bring appropriate “Gear” to the PDX event. Items like extra oil, coolant, tire pressure guage, sunscreen, umbrella, hat, camera, storage bin or bag, lawn chair, etc. 

In addition to getting you and your vehicle prepared for the Track Day (PDX) event, before you arrive at the track, please review the other “Track Day” related pages on this website.

Event requirements

On-line Registration will close Saturday, April 7th  But call Kathy at 612-839-7905 if you can join us at the last minute!

Onsite Registration for Sunday, April 8 is from 7:30 to 8 a.m.  Group 1 drivers (Experience: beginner through 5 events) can NOT walk in and register.  Instructors are assigned and we can't promise there would be one for walk-ins.

Online registration requires payment by credit card or electronic check. The only way to guarantee your spot is to preregister and pay. Your credit card will NOT be charged until you check in and are on the track.

IMPORTANT!  If you register and do not show up or cancel in advance, your credit card will be charged $25.  This is because space is limited and your spot can't be filled at the last minute. So please let us know.

Before registering, please be sure to read the car requirements, especially if you have a convertible. If you have any questions as to whether your car meets the requirements please call David at 651-983-8238
