Porsche Sacramento Valley Region (SVR) presents Autocross #7, a Zone 7 event, on Saturday, October 17, 2026, at Thunderhill Raceway Park in Willows, CA. This event is proudly sponsored by Porsche Rocklin and Porsche Sacramento. This is part of a two-day Zone 7 event co-hosted by the Redwood Region; registration for Sunday, October 18th, is separate and available through the Redwood event link https://msreg.com/red2026ax2. Gates open at 7:00 am. Participant check-in is from 7:30 am to 8:15 am at the Registration trailer. Cars must be ready for tech inspection on the grid between 8:00 am and 8:30 am, with a deadline of 8:15 am. An instructor-led course walk begins at 8:30 am, followed by a mandatory drivers meeting at 8:45 am. The first car will be on the course around 9:00 am. There will be a 30-minute lunch break around noon. The event includes morning and afternoon sessions, aiming for a minimum of eight runs per driver. All drivers must work an assigned worker position. Helmets are required and must have a 2010 or newer Snell certification. A course map will be available on the day of the event. Live timing will be available on the SVR live timing website. Registration closes at midnight on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, or when the 65-driver limit is reached; subsequent registrations will be waitlisted. The event fee is $105 through MotorsportReg.com, with a $10 discount for current PCA members and an additional $10 discount for driving a classed Porsche (FUN class registration invalidates this discount). MotorsportReg.com will add a $2.00 service charge. Second drivers in the same car must register separately and use a different car number. Camping or RV use at Thunderhill incurs a $20 per person per night charge. Participants should bring lunch, drinks, water, a folding chair, painter's tape or printed car numbers, sunscreen, a hat, and layers for cooler mornings. Red clothing is not permitted. Rules and classification are governed by PCA Zone 7; the full rule set is available on the official website.
