2016 OTA (Ontario Time Attack) Pricing and Schedule
 

Here's a quick rundown on the 2016 season:

For your best price you should attend the JRP Open House on April 2nd. This is also a GREAT opportunity to talk to some of the veterans of the series and get any questions you might have answered!

If you cannot attend that, then you can also register for regular pricing at MotorsportReg.com in a few weeks time when we open registration.

The last price is the walk-in price.

Also note that the lapping is all day for non-event/school and half a day for event days.

DDT = CTMP Driver Development Track which is located less than one hour east of Toronto, ON

MIR = CTMP Mosport International Raceway which is the "big track" less than one hour east of Toronto, ON

SMP = Shannonville MotorSports Park is located less than two hours east of Toronto near Belleville, ON

TMP = Toronto Motorsports Park Which is less than one hour south of Hamilton, ON

I'm looking to get into some open lapping so for example, I want to go to the June 26th @ MIR, so it would cost me $95.00 to get in?

Sorry if it's a noob question.

Yes, but it's only two guaranteed sessions in the morning at MIR. Lapping on event days ends at noon for all events, MIR has a higher chance of running late from a single big off track excursion so they build in more buffer time.

MIR is also not a good track to start lapping on, you'll want to have a few days on a more forgiving track first.

If you haven't done any lapping at all, you'll want to do a school first. Lapping with OTA requires sign off since you're out on track with competitors, if it's the first time you've driven on a track you aren't likely to be signed off.

If you're looking for a good first track experience, the DDT school is good. There will also be some ATTS days run by SPDA coming up that are more beginner friendly. June 11th and July 17th are the first two ATTS dates, both on the CTMP DDT.

Good to know.

Thanks!

+1 MIR is not a good idea for a first track experience. TMP and DDT are probably your best bet if you are new to tracking.

Sigh, I wish there were events at my nearest track!

Subscribing!
First timer here so based on the advice I'm in for DDT School

It's a great school, I might be there instructing if I have time.

Calabogie is amazing, but waaaayyyyy too expensive for the number of people that will show up to an event :(

@wparsons,

Do you know how they are setting up the day? Will the the lapping take place during the morning practise sessions and the afternoon is for the timed events only, or will lapping take place at the end of the day?

The reason I'm asking is if the car/driver are registered for the event are they included in the lapping or is the lapping extra for those that want extra track time?

Lapping at the schools will be all day, in dedicated run groups for lappers. Not sure exactly what the format of the day will be but expect 15-20 minutes of track time per hour probably.

Lapping at competition events is morning only, most likely three 20 minute sessions. If you're signed up to compete you get morning lapping and afternoon competition runs. Everyone is guaranteed the same number of runs in the afternoon (caveat being there is no major incidents that shut down the track for an extended period of time), you don't have to qualify for the afternoon runs.

Any fees for spectators?

Nope! Always free to come spectate at OTA events.

At TMP you'll have to tell them you're there with OTA, the only other track that will even have someone at the gate asking is MIR.

There might be alligator lapping at lunch at some of the events as well, which is basically follow the leader around the track. It's free, no helmets needed, and lets you drive your car (assuming it's not leaking fluids or droppings parts off it) around the track at safe speeds.

@wparsons: What is the difference between Regular and Lapping? Thanks
