C.A.R.T. maintains a good neighbor policy:

Any competitor or crew found driving in the pits or on the street in an unsafe manner will be ejected, and forfeit any fees paid.
Vehicles that are judged to be too loud will receive one warning to correct the problem before they will not be allowed to run. CART has a 90db Limit at 75 Feet for all Vehicles, CART Reserves the right to delay a vehicles runs due to noise until the issue is corrected

Registration closes promptly at 9:30 a.m. Any entry after that time cannot be accepted.

Any car (street legal or race) may compete. No Trucks, SUV’s or Motorcycles. For safety concerns CART reserves the right to decide a vehicles eligibility during the course of an event.

In order to promote more competition between drivers and prevent single car classes at each event, we have decided to combine the SCCA classes into groups based on their PAX times. This will essentially group classes that run very similar times together and hopefully promote more competition at our events. The ten classes will be grouped as shown in the link below.

2024 CART Autocross Class's

In addition C.A.R.T. features their own classes:

Pro-Class

Pro S (Pro Street Car) - Essentially an "open class" limited to 200tw+ tires, with some exceptions.

Pro S – All vehicles entered into CART “Pro Street Car” class must be four-wheeled vehicles appropriate for street use. All vehicles must use hood, fenders and body panels as produced from the factory. Scoops, flares and other modifications are acceptable. All cars must run “Street Tires” as defined by the SCCA at the time of competition. CART “Pro Street Car” class is designed specifically for Drivers of performance street cars.

Pro R (Pro Race) - A completely 100% open, unrestricted class

Pro R – (Pro Race) this class is essentially an open class. R Comp tires are legal in this class, as well as any modification. This class is meant to be an unrestricted class with no prohibition of modification.

Pro G (Pro Geezer)

Pro G- This class is designed to promote competition among all our participants who are 65 years of age or older. Any vehicle qualifies as long as the driver meets the legal age requirement.

The marking for these classifications on cars should be Pro R and Pro S and Pro G.

New to Autocross? Never run with CART before? Haven’t run with us this year?

Registration is easy.

1) Get a car number and car classification at the table located to the back of the trailer. (Once you have a number, this will be your number for this year, and you can skip this stop at subsequent events.)

2) Go to the The trailer window, and have your car number and information entered into the timing computer. You must do this at each event.

3) Go to the other side of the trailer to pay your entry fee, get your wristband, and your work assignment. You will not be allowed to run without a work assignment wristband. The wristband you received at the gate allows you to be on the premises, you need a different wristband to compete.
