New Jersey Lottery SpeedTour Featuring Formula Cars is Coming to the New Jersey Motorsports Park
2024-07-26 - 2024-07-28 | New Jersey Motorsports Park (NJMP), 8000 Dividing Creek Road, Millville, NJ, 08332, United States
On July 26 – 28, one of the oldest organizations in vintage racing, and the only one with a national presence, the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association (SVRA) is coming to the New Jersey Motorsports Park in Millville, NJ with the New Jersey Lottery SpeedTour.

Formula Cars from Around the World to Compete Head-to-Head
In addition to an array of vintage cars, the event will feature racing from Formula Race Promotions, Formula 4 United States Championship (F4 U.S.) and Formula Regional America Championship (FR Americas), which are both led by Race Director, Scott Goodyear—the former racecar driver and television personality—who will also be on site!

The New Jersey Lottery SpeedTour features F4 U.S. Championships and FR Americas wheel-to-wheel racing! The Formula Regional Americas Championship and Formula 4 United States Championship are the first two steps on the Road to F1. The two series will descend on New Jersey Motorsports Park’s 14-turn Thunderbolt Raceway for Rounds 10-12 of their 18-round Championship season. When the lights go out at NJMP, five countries and 14 states across the USA will be represented across the two championships.

This event is in partnership with the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association (SVRA). SVRA is committed to presenting the best possible experience for competitors and fans. From 200 MPH Indy and Formula 1 cars to classic Jaguars and Porsches, SVRA events provide a rolling history of motorsport where the cars are the stars.

Car Shows and More Off-Track Fun!
Car enthusiasts will also enjoy the display of classic, vintage and exotic cars at the Hagerty Cars and Caffeine car show right in the Thunderbolt paddock. Spectators who are looking to get behind the wheel themselves are welcome to book an Arrive and Drive go-karting session at NJMP’s outdoor go-karting track! Compete with friends and family to see who can get in the most laps in NJMP’s Sodi gas-powered go-karts.

All guests are welcome to enjoy lunch and dinner at the full-service restaurant and pub, the Finish Line Pub, located right in the center of the facility. Here families can enjoy picnic games like cornhole, horseshoes, pickleball (bring your own paddle and ball), and disc golf (bring your own disc). And when it gets too hot, those with a ticket are eligible for a pool pass to NJMP’s outdoor pool!

Interview Opportunity with Racing Legend Scott Goodyear: On Thursday, July 25, there will be opportunities for select media to conduct an exclusive interview with racing legend, Scott Goodyear. Today, Scott Goodyear is the race director for both FR Americas and F4 U.S., but he is best known from his days racing in IndyCar, IRL and Champ Car. With a career dating back to 1987, more people will likely remember Goodyear for the race he didn’t win—the 1992 Indianapolis 500 where he finished second to Al Unser Jr. in the closest Indianapolis 500 finish ever recorded—rather than the two races that he did win. Retiring from the cockpit in 2001, Goodyear became a commentator for ABC and ESPN’s coverage of the IRL with Paul Page and later Todd Harris, of “World’s Strongest Man.” Goodyear joined the FR Americas and F4 U.S. organizations in 2019 as race director, a role he uses to ensure a safe, fun series, while also helping young drivers develop on and off the track. Send inquiries to info@njmp.com.

What is a High Performance Driver Education (HPDE) School?
Learn to drive your car on a real racetrack. Our high performance driving schools are an opportunity to learn and develop your driving skills, explore your capabilities as a driver and those of your car in a safe environment. Your classroom teacher and your personal instructor are ready to give you the tools and confidence to explore the performance of your own car.

You are on a racetrack but it is not racing. Passing in corners is not allowed, and drivers are carefully coached to develop skills needed to maintain safety and control and you are grouped with other drivers with similar driving experience. Classroom instruction is also included to help you learn more about performance driving and vehicle dynamics.

As soon as we go live – we’ll let you know!
NEQ Club.

WDCR SCCA HPDE - Shenandoah Circuit
2024-08-17 - 2024-08-18 | Summit Point Raceway, 201 Motorsports Park Cir, Summit Point, WV, 25446, United States
The Summit Point HPDE & TT Program is excited to announce the tentative schedule 2024! HPDE & TT events are expected on the following dates at the following Summit Point circuits:

March 2-3 – Main Circuit
March 23-24 – Shenandoah Circuit
April 26-28 – Main Circuit
June 1-2 – Jefferson Circuit (NEW DATE for 2024)
July 13-14 – Shenandoah Circuit
August 17-18 – Shenandoah Circuit
September 7-8 – Shenandoah Circuit
October 5-6 – Main Circuit (NEW DATE for 2024)

We are particularly excited about the new date on Jefferson. The June event does away with a too-lengthy gap between the late-April and mid-July events. Its addition to the calendar means the program will continue to hold events on each of Summit Point Motorsports Park’s three unique and challenging circuits. Finally, moving the Jefferson event from October to June enables us to add an additional date on Summit Point’s Main Circuit for 2024.
*NOTE: Depending on the national Time Trials schedule, Time Trials may not be offered at every event on this schedule. Time Trial drivers should look for announcements from the Time Trials Competition Director in the coming weeks.
While we are confident that this schedule is firm, we do not yet have a contract with Summit Point. Therefore this schedule is subject to change.

Off-Road SUV Tour with Chesapeake Region
2024-08-25
“What’s better than a caravan of Cayenne and Macan SUVs navigating a lightly technical dirt road through a green forest full of elevation changes, rocks, mud, twists and turns? How about gathering afterward with fellow tour members at a winery?” says Off-Road SUV Tour Master Jim Hemig!
Save the date for an off-road SUV tour on August 25 in the Frederick County, MD, area, ending with libations at the lovely Springfield Manor Winery in Thurmont, MD! Don’t worry about washing your Macans and Cayenne’s let’s get ‘em (a little) dirty! Contact Diane Sullenberger (diane@pcapotomac.org) with questions or to volunteer.

Tire Rack Street Survival
2024-08-25 | Summit Point Raceway, 201 Motorsports Park Cir, Summit Point, WV, 25446, United States
The 4th annual Tire Rack Street Survival (TRSS) program will be held on Sunday, August 25, on the Washington Circuit of Summit Point Motorsports Park.
TRSS is a one-day event very similar to the Autocross format, in which our DE and AX instructors pass along car control knowledge to new and inexperienced teen drivers. The program is a great way to improve the skills of new drivers. It is also rewarding for instructors to work with teens to become safer and more educated drivers.
Students can register at: msreg.com/TRSSPCA24 .
Coaches and volunteers can register at: msreg.com/TRSSVols2024
Please contact Doug Hough at streetsurvival@pcapotomac.org if you have questions.
