2026 Zone 7 Autocross Rules Posted

Written By jim tierney

PCA Zone 7 Autocrossers,

Happy New Year! 

The 2026 Zone 7 Autocross Rules are finalized and posted here: https://zone7.pca.org/autocross-rules/

This evolved rule set was developed according to the mission of the Zone 7 Autocross Rules Committee (Z7ARC) and approved unanimously by both the Z7ARC and all PCA Zone 7 Regions' Presidents.

In brief, there are material updates to the rules and car classifications that may change how you register for 2026 PCA Zone 7 Autocross Events, including:. 

  • Elimination of As Delivered Classes

  • Updates to Optioned Classes

  • Limits on Prepared Classes

  • Addition of Modified Classes that slot in between the Prepared and Unlimited Classes

  • Updates to PAX values

We strongly encourage all potential autocross participants to read through the whole of the document (the later sections build on earlier sections) to fully understand how the new rules apply to their 2026 registrations.  

All the best,

Steve Forshay on behalf of the Z7ARC
