MCMC/TRSCCA Autocross Event 2
The Music City Miata Club is again organizing members to participate in the Tennessee Region SCCA Autocross events for the 2024 calendar year. The second Points Event is scheduled for Saturday May 11th at Twin Fountains Raceway in Bell Buckle TN.
The event costs $50 for SCCA Members and $65 for Non-SCCA Members. They also offer a $100 “no-work” registration which is limited to 10 registrations per event.
Twin Fountains is a great venue for a first time Autocross driver as the course design follows the go cart track and there are fewer cones to navigate. If you’re wondering if you would enjoy Autocross racing, this would be the perfect time to get your feet wet. There are generally no more than 2 cars on the course (separated by approximately 30 seconds) at a time. The course is laid out with orange traffic cones and the setup is unique for each event. The focus is on friendly competition and not speed – most of the course is spent in 1st and 2nd gear in a Miata.
To participate, register online with the TRSCCA (link) and then bring your Miata, Snell 2010 or later certified helmet, sunscreen, a lunch and plenty of non-alcoholic refreshments and join us for a great time with our Miata’s in their natural habitat.
Note: The TRSCCA has a limited number of loaner helmets available on a first come/first serve basis for those that wish to “try before you buy” a helmet.
We will meet up at the Smyrna Cracker Barrel (2697 Highwood Blvd, Smyrna, TN 37167, I-24 Exit 66A) at 6:45 AM for a drivers meeting and will leave promptly at 7 AM. For those who are coming across I-840, we will briefly stop at the Mapco Express (2430 S Church St, Murfreesboro, TN 37127, I-24 Exit 81A) at 7:15 AM so you can join the group for the last leg to Twin Fountains. Spectators are allowed but are required to sign a waiver to attend.
As you will be signing waivers to participate, DO CHECK with your insurance agent as some policies do not cover damage to your car, liability and/or personal injury at or on a race track.
Please email devron_steele@outlook.com by Friday May 10th if you plan to attend or if you need assistance with classifying your car.
