2025 Tire Rack SCCA Time Attack Challenge at Autobahn Country Club
2025 Tire Rack SCCA Time Attack Challenge at Autobahn Country Club

Registration opens on May 7th, at 3PM CST!

For the first time ever, the SCCA National Time Trial program is making its debut at the incredible Autobahn Country Club in Joliet, IL! This state-of-the-art facility offers multiple layouts, including the legendary 2.1-mile, 15-turn South Circuit. With its mix of fast straights, technical corners, and forgiving runoff areas, this track is the ultimate playground for drivers ready to push themselves—and their machines—to the limit.
This is your chance to make your mark in SCCA history! With no established class records yet, the stage is set for you to be the first to etch your name into the record books. Think you’ve got what it takes to claim the top spot? This is your moment to shine on an amazing circuit designed for high-octane fun and unforgettable competition.
But the excitement doesn’t end when the track goes quiet. On-site camping at Autobahn CC isn’t just an option—it’s part of the adventure! As the sun sets, the paddock transforms into a vibrant hub of camaraderie and celebration. Hang with all the other Time Attack drivers, sharing stories about nailing the perfect lap (or lamenting the one that got away), and keep the energy alive long into the night. It’s not just about the laps—it’s about the memories you’ll make both on and off the track.
Don’t miss this historic opportunity to race, connect, and create lasting memories. Sign up now and join the action at Autobahn Country Club—it’s going to be one for the books!
