This facility was designed and is used by various law enforcement agencies for police-academy driver training associated with Central Arizona College. Our club has recently gained access to the track and we have had several successful driver-training and autocross events here. Although, it is only 0.75 miles in length, the surface is wide enough and very smooth, with adequate run-off areas. There are a wide variety of corner types and the linkages between them allows plenty of challenges for new and experienced drivers alike. The pit area is very spacious, By careful event design, we are able to achieve, with full PCA national sanction, multi-car and multi-lap practice and timed autocross events. Our procedures allow flag-controlled passing and tightly controlled track access in small groups. The worker stations are in safe locations and have a very good view of the track.

To get there, take I-10 north from Tucson (south from Phoenix) to exit 190 McCartney Rd (approximately 5 miles north of the I-8 interchange). Go east on McCartney Rd 2.5 miles to Overfield Rd. Turn left and go 1 mile to a stop sign (the entrance gate to CAC will be directly in front of you). Turn right, go 0.2 mile and take the first left. This road has several speed bumps--go straight north 0.9 mile. There will be horse corrals on the right. At the end of the road it turns left into a small parking lot; continue through the lot and turn right, go through the gate and you are there!
