Default Texas Time Trials Events June 12th and 20th

Texas Time Trial is having 2 events at Mineral Wells in the coming weeks. One on June 12th, and another event on June 20th. Come out for tons of seat time and no standing around shagging cones! There are 2 separate sessions, one in the morning and one in the afternoon and you can choose either. The cost is $45 for first time attendees, or $40 if you have been to one of our events before. Lunch is free and you get a free t-shirt if you sign up a week in advance.

To register for June 12th:
www.clubregistration.net/index.cfm?direct=3021
To register for June 20th:
www.clubregistration.net/index.cfm?direct=3022
Our events have a VERY low entry cap (16 people) to make sure everyone gets a ton of seat time. So don't wait until the last second to sign up!

For more info as well as pics and videos from previous events check out:

No, we have no course workers. If you hit a cone you simply go pick it up. If a cone is hit then it simply makes your laps that run session not count for your overall top time.

If your out on course for your first lap and you see that a cone was knocked down previously simply pick it up and come back and let timing know so they can count It against the previous drivers times.

Time trial courses are more open so we normally do not get to many cones knocked over compared to an autocross.

The events are a blast and you get lots of seat time, I strongly recommend people come out and try it.

These events are a whole lot of fun. If you're looking for an inexpensive alternative to "real" track time at MSR or ECR, you really should check out one of David's Texas Time Trial events.

Here's a link to a lap in my car from a TTT event back in February.

Do they allow people to ride shotgun at these events? And if they do, are there loaner helmets available?

Yes one of the good things about time trials is that ride alongs are allowed. There are also loaner helmets available.
