Save the Date! September 19th, 2020 @ Thompson Speedway & October 3rd @ Palmer Motorsports Park!
If it's been awhile since you've run with us, you'll definitely want to come back for this event as we roll out a number of changes to our rules and format to help make our track days run as smooth as possible.
What is Time Attack? Instead of having the morning sessions be practice, each session will be timed--after the first session drivers will be gridded by position to allow as much room between drivers as possible. Drivers are responsible for making enough room for themselves to make a clean hot lap. All passing rules will remain the same (by point-by only except in advanced group).
After lunch, we will run our normal Time Trials where you have 3 laps with essentially the entire track to yourself to set your best possible lap. Because drivers will already be gridded by position by run group, there will be minimal downtime between after lunch and when Time Trials begin.
We will then combine your fastest time from the Time Attack sessions with your fastest Time Trial lap - the driver with the fastest combined time wins!

CART Awarded "Time Trial Champion" by SCCA @ 75th Anniversary Nationals Event at Thompson Motor Speedway
https://www.scca.com/articles/2013880-history-made-at-thompson-time-trials
"New for 2020, the Time Trials Champion award is presented to the participant who does the most to champion both the program and the experience of Time Trials. The Connecticut Autocross and Rally Team (CART) was not only indispensable throughout the weekend, helping with setup, tech, grid, timing and more, but they also have been some of the most ardent supporters of Time Trials in the New England area. For these reasons, the entire CART organization earned the honor of Thompson Time Trials Champion."
Thank you to SCCA and the entire CART family for continuing to dedicate your time and energy to making events like these possible. Our passion for motorsports would not be possible without you!
