    2012 Autox Schedule (Ontario)

    With spring around the corner and a mild winter, many people are getting their cars ready for another season of autocross. Below is a listing of local events happening throughout the 2012 year. In addition to the local and provincial events, we also have the Canadian Autoslalom Championship being held this year in Barrie.

    What is auto-x? Just check out the videos below for a quick overview:

    I’ll keep this list updated as dates become available and they change up.

    For those of you who are new and want to try it out, just come out to an event. Watch or ask to go for a ridealong. It's the cheapest form of motorsports out there, with the cost being less than a speeding ticket, or even a parking ticket in some cases. If you really want to be involved, CASC-OR/SPDA puts on an amazing auto-x driving school near the end of April. The school is geared towards all driving skills. This school sells out every year. Registration opens during the CASC-OR open house at CSC Racing in Newmarket on April 1, 2012.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    Here is a list of local clubs/series

    CASC-OR Mobil 1 Championship Series.
    Also known as the “provincials”, this is the top series in the area. Each event is put on be a different hosting car club. It's a great way to visit different clubs and drivers from all around Ontario.

    BMWCCT – BMW Car Club of Canada - Trillium Chapter
    Events are held at the Powerade Centre in Brampton, as well as two events at Mosport Drivers Development Track. You may run one event as a non-member, but if you plan on running more than one event with BMWCCT, you should invest in a membership.

    HADA – Honda Acura Drivers Association
    HADA has scaled back their autoslalom events, but will be holding two advanced driving development days as well as one round of the provincials.

    MCO – Motorsports Club of Ottawa
    MCO is a large club in Ottawa that host various track days, driving schools, ice racing and solo events. MCO Solo II events are so popular that they have been forced to only have online registrations which sell out quickly. Events take place in Kanata at the Scotiabank Place, which is a massive lot.

    OMSC – Oshawa Motor Sports Club
    OMSC is a smaller club that host various lapping days and a round of the provincials at the Shannonville skidpad.

    PCA - Porsche Club of America - Upper Canada Region
    The autoslaloms take place at the Toronto Star Facility in Woodbridge (1 Century Place, Woodbridge, ON. L4L 8R2). Cost is $30/driver; however you must register online and you must be a member. The deadline is Thursday before the event.

    PITL – Push it to the Limit
    This series is put on by the Mazda Sports Car Club. Events take place at the Bramalea Go Station in Brampton. It’s a small lot, and a ton of fun. Expect a very tight and technical course.

    PMSC – Peterbrough Motor Sports Club
    PMSC is also a smaller club that host various lapping days and events, as well as a provincial event at Kawartha Downs Speedway.

    SPDA - Subaru Performance Drivers Association
    SPDA hosts the annual auto-x driving school, as well as one of the National days along with TLMC.

    St. LAC – St. Lawrence Automobile Club
    St. LAC events are for those that are in the Kingston/Belleville area. Their auto-x venue switches between the Picton Airfield (yes…an airport) and Shannonville Motorsports Park. I always hear great things about the events held by these guys.

    TLMC – Twin Lakes Motor Club
    TLMC has been around for over half a century now. They have been around for a while, and they know how to put on a great show. Their events are held at the Molson Center in Barrie. This lot is one of the largest open lots of any Solo II series. Course designs flow well, and getting runs is easy. This is also the club who is hosting the Nationals this year.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    Each series has its own list of car classification and rules. If you are interested in a series, visit their website or ask questions here. Autocross is cheap way to have a blast. There is no excessive wear on the car. You arrive arrive and drive (granted your car is in working condition and full of oil). It’s only as serious as you want it to be.

    I've heard a lot of great things about this event and am hoping I can make it out (kind of a long drive for me but should be worth it). $100 for both days so the price is pretty good for all the things that are covered in the 2 days.
