Description
of Events
Driver Training
A novice training program for drivers of all skill levels wanting to
improve their car control skills for everyday driving and/or
competition. Two nights of classroom instruction followed by a full-day
of supervised practice and in-car instruction. Upon completing the
program, drivers are eligible to apply for a novice racing license with
CACC and/or ICSCC.
Autoslalom
Also known as autocross or Solo II. Drivers take turns navigating a
course marked by pylons as quickly as possible without displacing any
pylons. A fun and legal way for drivers to test their car control
skills. The Autoslalom rulebook can be downloaded from the CACC website here. Click here for PDF version of Tech Inspection form - Please fill out before event if possible
Solosprint
Solosprint events are a step closer to road racing. Events
usually take place on road racing circuits where each
competitor takes turns challenging the track and the clock
to turn the fastest time against other cars in their class.
Solosprint is another opportunity to develop your car
control skills, but at speeds approaching those of road racing.
A Solosprint competitor must first compete as an Autoslalom
competitor or have equivalent on-track experience before
qualifying for a Novice Solosprint Licence. After a
season of competition under the scrutiny of CACC officials,
a Novice can apply for a Senior Solosprint Licence.
Solosprint requires additional safety equipment beyond that
mandated for Autoslalom. Frequently
Asked Questions
Who can drive in
the events?
Anyone with a valid Class 5 BC driver's license (or equivalent) may
drive in our events. Drivers holding a novice (Class 7) license are
allowed to run but will have their driving more closely monitored.
Events are open to both
members and non-members, and first-timers are always welcome.
What do I need to
run an event?
The essentials are:
- Car
- Helmet (minimum Snell
M2000 or SA2000 standard)
- Entry fee: $35
for club members (bring your club card) and $40 for
non-members
There are additional items
you could bring to make the day more comfortable. The Solo
2 Novice Handbook from SCCA has a few suggestions on what to bring.
What kind of car do
I need to run?
Any car which meets the CACC Autoslalom requirements can be driven at our events. In brief, the
rulebook allows any roadworthy or raceworthy vehicle with 4 wheels to
run. Unfortunately, the rulebook currently excludes go-karts. All
vehicles must pass technical inspection at the event. Click here for PDF version of Tech Inspection form - Please fill out before event if possible
Can I rent a car at
an event?
The club has a 1994 Honda Civic available for rent for all events. To rent the club
car please e-mail the Club Competition director at least two weeks prior to the event to
arrange for it to be at the event. More detail on the club car can be found here.
Can I borrow a
helmet?
The club currently does not have any loaner helmets, but fellow drivers
at the event are usually quite willing to lend out theirs. We encourage
drivers to bring their own equipment whenever possible. Snell M2000 (motorcycle) or newer helmets meet our safety requirements and are fairly
inexpensive to purchase.
How do I get
started?
Just show up at one of our events and we will be happy to help you get
started.
