Ridge Motorsports Park, Road Course

About this event

PCA/PNWR Solo-only DE

This PCA/PNWR DE Event is sponsored by Dundon Motorports

[5/28/2020] New Event Format - Please Read

Due to current restrictions on social gatherings and requirements for social distancing in place caused by COVID-19, this DE event will follow a different format than normal.

  • We will be limiting the number of drivers
  • This is a solo-only event.  You must be previously signed-off solo by the local PCA, BMWCCA, or ACNA club (at a prior DE event) in order to participate
  • There are no rental helmets available for this event - You must bring your own helmet that is fully compliant with PCA helmet rules.  See pnwr.org for complete details
  • You must bring your own water.
  • No in-car instruction is available
  • No spectators allowed

And of course, with the quickly changing guidance and mandates from the national and local government levels, this event may, unfortunately, ultimately be canceled. We will only hold this event if we are able to do so in accordance with all current restrictions and in a safe and socially-responsible manner.

All drivers will be Waitlisted upon registration.  You will be notified of your updated status once it is determined that the event will proceed and gathering size restrictions are known.  You will not be charged until it is certain this event will occur.
