Welcome to the 2023 AutoX Season
With strong support from Hoffman Porsche, CVR has built one of the very best AutoX (autocross) Programs in all of PCA. Join the fun and go home a better driver.
New to AutoX?
AutoX is a very exciting form of motorsport held at typical street and highway speeds. It emphasizes precise car control in a low-cost, friendly and safe competition. Learn and rapidly refine advanced driving skills and techniques in the non-threatening and safe environment of a course marked by traffic cones in a large parking lot. You are encouraged and coached by advanced driving instructors about the basics and the fine points of driving to the edge of your and your car’s limits. Enjoy your car’s handling like nowhere else and discover the fun and camaraderie of CVR AutoX. CVR recommends that you drive AutoX before your first Drivers Education event since the skills are directly transferable.

See what it’s like to drive an AutoX flat out! Watch some archived virtual CVR Autocross Videos. They “feel” like driving the actual courses. They start off with slow speed drives to show you the course, progress to faster runs that point out how you should be looking ahead, then take you on a thrilling run by our expert Chief Instructor, posting times that are typically what the real fastest cars achieve.
Limited loaner helmets for Novice class drivers (up to your first three events) will be exclusively reserved for free on a first-come basis by emailing Paul Kudra autocross@cvrpca.org. Free head socks will also be provided. This may be helpful if you want to try a helmet size before you order your own Snell 2020 SA rated helmet online. ”SA” stands for Special Application which is for car motorsports. Snell 2015 and Snell 2010 ratings are still acceptable for AutoX (use of 2010 helmets will expire in 2025).

Updated Car Classes for 2023
Please check your car class (New 2023 Car Classes) before registering! CVR will use the new Medium sized PCA AutoX event Car Class grouping for the 2023 season. Some classes are consolidated, new car models were added, and the overall class count was slightly reduced. Careful review of each change was made based on data and experience from across PCA to help make fewer 1-car classes and avoid over-populated classes.
Rules
Please be familiar with the CVR AutoX Rules to do your part in keeping events safe, fair, and running smoothly. In other words keeping them fun!

AutoX-U
AutoX-University classes are held at each event to promote “Better Driving Faster!” for all levels of experience. A unique course is designed to complement the driving skill featured that day. The course maps (and sometimes virtual drive videos) are posted on this page about a week before each event to help you learn each new course and make it easier to concentrate on the AutoX-U driving skills featured for that event.
2023 Course Maps are published approximately one week before each event
Courses are designed to be safe, to feel FAST, and to be FUN! Imagine driving a twisty back road at highway speeds but in a safe parking lot. Many features are used to make the course easy to follow, including two colors of cones, directional arrows, other signs, and visual landmarks.
