Atlanta Motorsports Park Open Track Day on Friday October 25, 2024

Limited to 100 entries. This event will sell out, so sign up early to be sure you have a spot!

On Friday, October 25, 2024, Atlanta Motorsports Park and Discovery Parts are offering an open-lapping track day for advanced drivers. The pits and full main track at AMP will be open for advanced drivers only. There will not be any run groups, so you can run laps to your heart's content.

This open track day is on the Friday before the Champ Car Race, which takes place on Saturday, October 26, and Sunday, October 27. The AMP/Discovery Parts open lapping day is the perfect opportunity for last-minute testing, car shake-down, AMP track orientation/familiarization, etc.

Atlanta Motorsports Park Open Track Day Details

You do not need to race in the Champ Car event in order to drive during the open-lapping track day on October 25. However, this open track day is for drivers with at least four (4) weekends of race track driving experience. If, for example, you're an HPDE instructor, usually juggling new drivers and rarely getting to drive your own car, this is the day you have been waiting for!

This event is for experienced and advanced drivers only. No drivers with fewer than four (4) weekend track events under your belt will be allowed to drive on track.

AMP Open-Lapping Track Day Pricing

Early sign-up pricing is in effect for anyone signing up from now through Sept 18!

• Full Day: $275 (9:00am to 5:00pm, w/ lunch 1:00-2:00pm)
• Afternoon Only:  $175 (2:00pm to 5:00pm)
• Happy Hour:  $155 (4:00pm to 5:00pm)

Each participating driver must be an experienced, advanced driver and must be wearing an arm band before entering the track.

AMP/Discovery Parts On Track Rules

• Hot pits are open under green flag conditions.
• Passing is allowed only after receiving a point-by and only on straights. No passing is allowed (point-by or otherwise) while cornering or in braking zones.
• Do not touch or cross the blend line. (Not kidding; don't do it.)
• Other rules will be discussed at the driver's meeting Friday morning.

Rule Violations

If you get black-flagged, report as soon as possible to the black flag station for consultation and/or further instructions.

• First Instance: Typically (but not always) the driver will receive a warning.
• Second Instance: Park that vehicle for the remainder of the day. That means none of the drivers of that vehicle can go on track. This will make you extremely unpopular. Don't do it.

Lastly, if you contact us with a question that is already answered above, a three-second penalty will be added to your lap time and the penalty will be noted on all social media. For example, if you ask eight already-answered questions, 24 seconds will be added and it will appear as though you were lapping on your bicycle.
