I'm signing up to run at Oct. 1st autocross in Waldorf and this will be my first event ever. What should i bring as far as tools are concerned? I read on CDC website we have to complete tech inspection ourselves.

You shouldn't need to bring any tools except maybe a tire pressure gauge and an air compressor. If you don't have one, I'm sure one of us can let you use one. Make sure your wheels are properly torqued and take out anything that doesn't need to be in your car. You can take stuff out on site if you don't want to empty it before.

The self tech inspection you're referring to is just to make sure your car is safe to drive: wheels are torqued, your tires have ample tread, brake pads have ample material, and fluids are good. They will do a brief tech inspection on site as well, but it's on you to be thorough. If you have a stockish car that's decently maintained, don't worry too much.

I'll either be there in my FRS or AMG. Look for #36.

These events are our last events for the 2016 season at Harry Grove. So if you like autocrossing at Harry Grove, come out to one of both days. We won't be back until next March!

SATurday October 15th Autocross

Harry Grove Stadium, Frederick, MD is the location of the next CDC autocross on Saturday October 15th. We will also have a Test and Tune Sunday October 16th.

Registration and tech inspection will be at 8:00 and will promptly close at 8:45 to try to accommodate the full field, while still giving 6 runs. You must be DONE by 8:45. So if you arrive at 8:00 you won't have a problem. Don't arrive at the last minute.

The event fee for the Saturday autocross is $30 for members and $40 for non-members ($10 goes for a one day membership per slot - so a double slot would have to pay the $10 membership both times) at this event.

SUNday October 16th Test and Tune Day

These Sunday Test and Tune Events will be held the day after the Saturday Harry Grove Stadium Autocrosses in Frederick , MD. The Test and Tune event will be an informal autocross using the same/similar course as the day before. The differences are the following:

Field is limited to 40 participants with about 5 organizers (for a total of 45 vehicles).
Times will be announced, but no results (we typically post but no promises), no points, and no indexes will be posted –This is only for fun
No extra runs if we miss a time – This is only for fun
The format will be 2 heats with 5 morning and afternoon runs (number of runs in the afternoon will depend on time and weather conditions. We hope to give 9 to 11 runs).
No food or drinks will be provided – We need to keep the amount of equipment to a minimum. So plan on either bringing drinks and food or going out to lunch.
Event is open to members and their guests only, since the event is so limited in size.
The entry fee is $35 per member, $45 for non-members ($10 goes for a one day membership per slot - so a double slot would have to pay the $10 membership both times).

All 40 slots will be given on a first come, first serve basis.

On-line Reservation System

Member reservations (or participants that will join the club upon showing up) for any events can be made at any time at Capital Driving Club under the Schedule Tab. Open reservations for non-members for this event begin Friday October 7th.

New Members

We will be accepting new members at this event. If you plan to join the club at this event, you may make a reservation at this time by doing the following:

1. Use "0" as the member number (a permanent number will be assigned to you after you join and you will get a temporary number for this event)
2. TYPE "I will be joining the club at this event" in the NOTES section when making you reservation.

The annual membership is $30 and is good for 12 months from the date you join.

If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to contact me.
