Friday August 5, 2022 at Thunderhill Raceway Park

“Held Under the SCCA Time Trials Rules”  Sanction Numbers  22-TERG-57762 / 22-TTTA-57765 

Welcome to the 2022 season round 3, a combined Track Event and Time Attack Competition Event on the Thunderhill 3 Mile East Road Course.  This is our only visit to the 3 mile East course this year. 

Please note that this is a FRIDAY event, August 5th.

Track Event (TE) is non-timed lapping in your car, with an emphasis on learning. Instruction will be in-classroom and in-car or observation. No previous experience required. Most street legal automobiles and some classes of race prepared cars are allowed. Open top automobiles must have factory rollover protection or an SCCA Time Trials approved rollbar. See Track Event Safety Rules for additional requirements.

Time Trials is a TIME ATTACK competition for fastest lap, open to almost all street-licensed cars and those prepared to the current SCCA Time Trials Rules.  Cars prepared to Solo Street Prepared or Street Mod and all full race prepared open or closed wheel cars are acceptable. Open top automobiles must have factory rollover protection or an SCCA Time Trials approved roll bar. Race Prepared Cars running in a GCR Race class must meet all requirements of their respective class including cage, window nets or arm restraints, fire suppression system and driver safety gear including fire suit, gloves, socks and driver restraint system. Head and neck restraint are highly recommended but not required. See Time Trials Rules for driver eligibility requirements.

All groups will have four 20 minute sessions each day.

Loaner helmets are available no-charge.

SCCA membership required; weekend memberships available for $20.

Special Introductory Offer: If you have been 'on the fence' trying to decide if track events are your cup of tea Reno Region has established an introductory discount just for you.  Instead of paying the original entry of $295 we are offering a special $50 discount for first timers that are not experienced 'track junkies' and have not run with us previously.  The $245 Special includes entry in our Track Event (TE) Novice Class, four 20 minute on-track sessions, ample classroom instruction, in-car coach and lunch.  You know you want to do it, now is the time. 

Regular Entry Fees: Track Event (TE) / Time Attack (TA), $295 Regular Registration.

Early Bird Registration: Enter before July 23 and recieve a $45.00 discount off the entry fee.

For those who just can't get enough track time we offer a Dual Entry. For an additional $75 you can run the same car and driver in both Time Attack groups (TT 1 & TT 2). That's a mind boggling 2 hours and 40 minutes of track time for just $370. ($325 With Early Bird)

A $25 Late Penalty for walk-on or late registration may be assesed at event.
