Sweep & Tune, Sunday 26 April, 2009 - Alaska Raceway Park

Please join us for the first event of 2009, the annual Test & Tune. Sweep & Tune with us on Sunday April 26th at Alaska Raceway Park! Course design by Brad. Since this event does not count towards the season championship, this is the best opportunity of the season to try new things and introduce new people to the sport! We will have beverages, water, coffee, and breakfast snacks. We will be taking a 1/2 hour lunch break, but lunch will not be provided. So, pack your own lunch. Please come early to allow time to settle your gear, prepare your car, and get through Tech Inspection before the Novice Walk-Thru. Remember, all loose items will need to be out of your car and your battery will need to be solidly secured- no bungee cords or other sillyness! Don't forget your driver's license.
