FAQs

  • Autocross is a timed auto event in which drivers maneuver through a small road course lined with cones, trying to achieve the quickest time possible. Our autocross events allow only one car at a time on the course, allowing drivers to go as fast or as slow (to learn the course) as they wish. An electronic timing system is used to time the cars and there is a two second penalty for each marked cone that is knocked down or displaced from its location.

  • Our autocross events are held at Aviators Field in Robstown. Here is a google maps link: STBR

  • The SCCA Solo program uses the Professional Autocross Index (PAX) quite extensively in the classes that compete in our regional events. PAX is an index system designed to equalize participants running cars from different SCCA Solo classes in the same local regional class. The PAX value is a multiplier used on the entrant's time, and then compared directly with other class competitors and their PAX multiplied time.

    The Official PAX values are determined each year and can be accessed via this link: PAX Index Values

  • Yes. Passengers are allowed (must be at least 12 years old). A form must be signed by spectators if they wish to be a passenger on the course.
