What is Autocross

Autocross is a motorsports event that emphasizes car control and performance handling.

Autocross differs from track events because it typically remains under 60 mph and has less straightaway and many more turns. Autocross events are frequently held in large parking lots. Traffic cones are used to define a course where drivers compete one car at a time against the clock. The times are recorded and used to differentiate drivers as they compete against each other. There is no passing or rubbing of fenders since cars are always separated from each other and do not compete in the same manner as race car drivers.

Additionally, there are several classes to register; one for each category of car, so you don’t have to worry about modifying or un-modifying your existing car.

Because there is little chance of hitting anything beyond small traffic cones, low potential to damage a car, and because autocross normally presents less stress on vehicles than track driving, autocross is a great entry-level event for performance motorsports enthusiasts.

May 12, 2020 COVID-19 Update

Hope everyone is safe and well. Our participant's health and safety are of the utmost concern of the NCC Autocross Program (and National Capital Chapter, more broadly). Given the current circumstances with COVID-19, we are cancelling NCC Autocross events through June 13, 2020 (this includes Points Event #1 scheduled for 3/28, the Novice School scheduled for 4/4, the Test and Tune scheduled for 5/17, Points Event #2 scheduled for 5/30, and Points Event #3 scheduled for 6/13). This makes our tentative first event to be held on August 8, 2020 in Waldorf, Maryland. This latest cancellation of the June 13, 2020 date is optimistically going to be rescheduled for later this year; however, there is no new date set at this time. Anyone registered for the June 13, 2020 event as a season subscriber will receive a full refund. Please see this post for further details: May 12, 2020 COVID-19 Update
