Local Clubs

Steel Cities Region of the SCCA runs at Pitt Race in Beaver County, and typically runs 10 events per year, as well as schools and National Events, being an individual chapter of the nationally recognized Sports Car Club of America (SCCA). Typical events run $30-$45, with 6+ runs, personalized instruction, and passengers allowed. 

Allegheny Highlands Region of the SCCA runs both AutoX and RallyX events in Indiana, Cambria, and Somerset Counties just to the East of Pittsburgh. They are also an individual chapter of the nationally recognized Sports Car Club of America (SCCA). Typical events run $30-$40, with 5+ runs for AutoX, and passengers allowed. 

Pitt Race (the same venue as the Steel Cities SCCA events) holds their own Low Key, non-competition test & tune style events on the smaller, original portion of the VDA. They usually run 6 events per year, with Snowcross AutoX style events in the winter (weather permitting). Events are $40, with 6+ runs. New for 2018, you may have passengers as long as they are 18+, have a matching seat (e.g. if the driver's seat has a 5 point harness, the passenger's seat must also), and have an approved helmet.

Misery Bay Region of the SCCA runs at Lake Erie Speedway just outside of Erie, PA in North East, PA. Their events typically start a little later in the day, so it's easy for Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Buffalo Area folks to make the drive.

Susquehanna Region of the SCCA typically runs events in the Harrisburg area at various locations. 

Akron Sports Car Club is an independent club that runs most of their events at the newly constructed Dragway 42 site about 40 minutes west of Akron. They will also begin running events at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio in 2019. Their events are a bit unique, as the courses feature higher speeds than a typical AutoX course while being laid out on a series of service roads. It's somewhat of a mix between TrackX and AutoX. Usually 5 runs or more. Passengers are allowed, but usually for a $5-$10 fee.

The Ohio Valley Region of the SCCA runs their AutoX events at National Trails Raceway in Hebron, OH - about halfway between Zanesville and Columbus just off I-70. The site is the parking area for a drag strip and typically features fantastic onsite food vendors. 

Opened in June 2016 and located at the Monroeville Mall, Steel City Indoor Karting provides year round seat time in electric karts. While not quite as fast as the new OTL karts at Three Rivers Indoor Karting, the layout includes some Autocross friendly elements such as slaloms, a wide variety of turning radiuses (or radii if you're fluent in Latin), and kart adjustability in terms of seat placement and steering wheel placement. All necessary equipment is provided as part of the rental, and pricing is typically $12.50-$20.00 per race.

Pitt Race also offers kart rentals on its world famous .82 mile Wilson Circuit. While these are gas powered karts instead of electric karts, these aren't your typical "Fun Fore All" style karts, as these reach speeds up to 45 MPH. Be sure to check the hours on their website, as the track is frequently rented out for private events/practice and is used for national karting events.  All necessary equipment is provided as part of the rental, and pricing is typically $20.25-$22.50 per race.
