Autocross in Cleveland and Akron Ohio

Laps for Tina Charity Autocross

On Saturday June 16th 2012 the Northern Ohio Racing Association (NORA) will be holding a charity autocross race at Geauga Lake to benefit Tina DePietro as she battles malignant melanoma.

Instead of getting married this summer on a beach to fiancé Eric Heller, Tina is receiving chemotherapy and battling stage 4 cancer. The charity event planned on Father’s Day weekend is very appropriate as her father Mike, and mother Linda are long time racers and helped fuel her hobby of racing sports cars.
…
Activities planned include an autocross, which is a precision driving event racing against the clock on a pylon-lined course, ride a longs giving the public a chance to see what it feels like to navigate a race course from the passenger seat of a sports car, and on site refreshments are available. Previous racing experience is not necessary to participate in the autocross, but all vehicles must pass a safety inspection, all drivers must attend a mandatory safety meeting and helmets must be worn.

Cost $40 for all drivers

Planned dual course event. Fastest time from A.M. and P.M course combined.

Lots of Prizes for top drivers as well as raffles (List to follow soon)

Still a points paying event for members

He will be running tech inspection at all of the events this year, and he is also in charge of the annual tech-inspection process. We have a new tech-inspection check list as well, which you should definitely take a look at if you are new to autocross or you have not raced with us before.
