Special Weather Insurance: If it is raining or snowing or if the temperature is below 48 degrees, this event may be cancelled and a full refund will be returned to the registrants. We will also shred the check if you agree to it. Precipitation will cancel the event but temperature gives either the track or the club the right to cancel and issue participants a full refund! The temperature clause is a guideline where we used the average temperature in Alton, VA for the month of February as the decision point. The average temperature was researched from weather.com. This does not mean we will cancel due to cold weather but it gives us the right to cancel if either party deems it necessary.

Host Hotel: The Lodge at VIR or the Villas at VIR. We are asking ALL participants to lodge at the track.

Please stay at the track for this event. We want to be sure to patronize the track by staying at their on site hotels.

Event Update:

The bottom line on this event is that you have nothing to lose and everything to gain since you will get a full refund if you cancel up to 72 hours before the event. We have a weather clause so if it is bad weather, we will cancel the event.

Hyperdrive:

The SCMC/TCUSA will be offering Hyperdrives over the course of the weekend. A Hyperdrive is one 30 minute session in your car with an in car instructor. You still have to fill out all of the forms, have a helmet, be at the driver's meeting and your car must pass a tech inspection.


These are the required forms. Please make sure you fill these out, print them, sign them, and bring them with you to registration.

Helmet Form: http://www.svtcobraclub.com/ontrackhelmetform.html
Technical Form: http://www.svtcobraclub.com/ontracktechnicalform.html
Covid Form: https://www.svtcobraclub.com/forums/...4&d=1611895488

Medical Forms will now be switched to a "medical card" that must be filled out at the event and kept with you at all times while on track. The club is no longer responsible for safe keeping your medical information, you must keep the card with you at all times till the event is concluded.
