Autocross Corner (Cont. from pg. 11) another Driver’s Education event and possibly a Zone 8 Time Trial event. Can’t wait and want to compete in a couple Zone 8 Time Trials THIS YEAR? Here are the dates: Oct. 17-18 at Spring Mountain Motorsport Ranch, NV and Nov 21-22 at Buttonwillow Raceway. Goto: http:// zone8.pca.org/ for more information. Time Trials are not an entry level activity. A minimum of six Autocrosses or four Autocrosses and a Driver’s School are required to participate. Additionally, safety equipment requirements are more stringent than for Autocross. Time Trials are limited to licensed participants or students. You obtain your license by satisfying at least two instructors that you are competent to compete at an event unsupervised. It takes at least two events to achieve this. Licenses are issued by Zone 8. Equivalent licenses from other sanctioning bodies are recognized and allowed. Typically, a Time Trial is a two-day event, (however, they are held in one day on occasion.) The first day is all practice runs; the second day has practice runs in the morning, with timed runs happening later in the afternoon. For the timed runs, cars are divided into classes so that drivers are competing against other cars with similar horsepower-toweight ratios and modifications. Please note that the competitive nature of this is, like Autocross, against the clock. It is NOT wheel to wheel racing, even though the practice sessions may give that appearance.
