2020 Autocross Test & Tune

We will be hosting an Autocross Test & Tune event for those who are unable to make it to Putnam for the HPDE that weekend. The intent of this non-points event is to allow you to experiment with settings like tire pressures, suspension adjustments, or fiddle with anything else that may make you faster at hunting cones. The idea is to provide you with as many runs as you need to dial in your car without melting your tires!

The timing board will be running for reference, but times will not be recorded. The event will run in a more relaxed manner than a normal autocross event, as we will be limiting attendance to a MAXIMUM of 40 participants, with a waitlist started after that. We will split into equal groups and have a morning work/run session, break for lunch, and have an afternoon work/run session.

The registration fee for the Test & Tune is $60. Because of COVID-19 operating procedures and the fact that most of our instructors will be at Putnam that weekend, regrettably new novice drivers will not be accepted for this event because we will not have the resources to provide adequate instruction under the current operating environment. As such, attendees must have completed at least 5 autocross events with Windy City BMW or any other club running an autocross program in the last 2 years to attend.

To register, you must email autocross@windycitybmw.com with the following information:
2. Full Name
4. BMWCCA Membership Number
6. Car Year/Color/Make/Model
8. Car Number
10. Phone Number
12. Email
14. Autocross participation history

If we approve you for this event, you will receive information on how to pay for your registration. Just like the rest of our Autocross events this year, participants will need to follow all of our rules and safety protocols. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out at autocross@windycitybmw.com. Hope to see you there!
