All GMP race events for the 2026 are now live in MSR.  Register early! Entries are not charged at the time of registration - payments will be processed at the time of the event and after you have hit the track so there is no reason to not register early. Early Bird registration discounts are also available for Road Racing & Drifting. Volunteers - please register as well on MSR especially those that plan on helping out on Friday Track Days. This will help us ensure that volunteer rewards, recognition and compensation is attributed accordingly.

So we don't need car classing or anything listed on the car along with the numbers?

Hi Nobody has number 22 in Time Attack - it is open for you to claim While we don't have strict rules regarding the number size etc., you need to use numbers that clearly stick out from your car: Different colour, or a large neutral background to make them easy to read. Furthermore, a good guideline is to look at the road racing requirements: on the sides of the car, the actual numbers should be 10" high, with a brush stroke (width of each line) of 2".

Hi Helix, Actually, I'm thinking about getting some magnetic number plates that I can use for both Time Attack and AutoCross.  What information needs to be listed on the car? Additionally could I please look to reserve number #22?

Hi Roland, I'm thinking about getting some magnetic number plates that I can use for both Time Attack and AutoCross.  What information needs to be listed on the car? Additionally could I please look to change my number to #22?

Steve Konrad, membership 7666.  New entry.  I'd like to have number 71 if it has become available please.  If not, 81 please.

Race Louvers - Pontiac Solstice Hood Vent Kits try these for the best fit.

hi Ron - are you planning on adding some "universal fit" vents/louvers to your existing hood? I would recommend getting a 2nd hood and start cutting on that one, if you like it afterwards, paint to match the car. I can help with a DIY installation, but you'd need placement guidance from the supplier if they can offer it. 

Should be available now. I was in the process of reloading an updated online version. Apologies to Jeremy for spelling his last name wrong in the earlier posted edition (and unfortunately the hardcopies being printed....)    

Unavailable.       

Is there a 2026 schedule? Thanks
