About this event
What are Shush! Sessions?
If you know Road Atlanta, you probably know that Sunday morning is known as “quiet time,” marked on event schedules as “NO RACE ENGINES.” There is plenty of speculative lore surrounding this policy, mostly tracking back to an early 80’s rock concert, but what is known for sure is that this is matter of law - race engines cannot be run during quiet hours at Road Atlanta, period, paragraph - end of discussion.
But wait - what about Street Engines? An excellent question and within that question is the core principle of Atlanta Region’s Shush! Sessions- NO RACE ENGINES means YOU have a change to get on track in your STREET CAR and experience on of the greatest tracks in North America, on a quiet and peaceful Sunday morning. It really is just that simple.
Shush! Sessions are open to drivers of all experience levels. You will get 3 sessions on track in either the Green (Group 1) or Blue (Group 2) group. Green is for less experienced drivers and allows passing only on straight sections of the track. Blue is for experienced drivers and allows passing on any section of the track. Plus, as these events happen within Atlanta Region SCCA Road Racing, you will also get gate passes for you and a guest to check out the racing that afternoon. We will also have coffee (the lifeblood of motorsport) on hand, and you can probably snag a doughnut if you arrive early enough - no promises.
PLEASE NOTE: This Shush Session will be a little different than before, but in a good way!
Most importantly, drivers will get THREE sessions instead of two (woohoo!). You will see that the price has been changed to reflect the extra track time.
Also, Shush will be run alongside a Time Trials event, so please note the earlier start and gaps in the schedule below as the two events alternate on track.
