Autocross is, hands-down, the cheapest, safest, least time-consuming way for you to learn basic performance driving, push your car, and push your skills.
It’s fun, informal, safe and the crowd is welcoming. And if you have family members or friends, who are – horrors – Porsche-less, bring them in (more or less) whatever they have – it’s all good. Need a helmet? We have loaners. Need coaching? We have instructors. Have a need for speed? We have the cure. Come on out and join us. If you have questions – reach out to any of the team.
NNJR’s autocross is different. We hold all our events at one of the biggest, best facilities int he country: Pocono Raceway. No tight parking lot for us.
It is racing, but you need not compete. It is fast, but you need not go faster than you car comfortable. No special preparation required. No pre-tech required.
If you want even more information reach out to autocross@nnjr-pca.com and/or watch for our “introduction to Autocross” interactive webinar early this spring.
