About this event

Join Us for the First Annual JK Jackson Memorial Autocross

Sunday, December 15, 2024

We’re thrilled to announce the inaugural JK Jackson Memorial Autocross, honoring the visionary behind the December Allies vs. Axis event—a tribute that marks Pearl Harbor Day and America’s entry into WWII. Back in 1986, JK Jackson reimagined the December autocross, transforming it into a "team" event that pitted the Allies (American and British cars) against the Axis (Japanese and German cars). Now, 38 years later, this cherished tradition continues, evolving into a celebration of history, camaraderie, and competition.

This year, we not only honor the memory of JK and Red Hills Region members we've lost, but also pay tribute to the men and women whose lives were shaped by the events of WWII.

Event Highlights

Event Chair: Robert Lewis
Start Time: 7:53 AM, with a moment of silence to honor fallen heroes and remember Pearl Harbor.

  • Allies vs. Axis Team Competition
    Stick to your Solo class, but we’ll track team wins through a scoring matrix. At the end of the day, the victorious team will be declared—spoiler alert: the Allies always come out on top!

  • Crappiest Run Award
    Who says you need the fastest time to win? This highly prestigious (and humorous) award invites ballot-stuffing and spirited voting. Remember, it’s not about having the “worst” run, it’s about making an impression.

  • Special Plaques & Trophies
    Awards include Fastest Allied Car, Fastest Axis Car, and uniquely themed trophies for top competitors. Bring your best performance—and your sense of humor.

  • Team Spirit
    Show off your patriotism with car decorations and flags! Just remember, no Japanese Rising Sun or Swastika symbols are permitted, as they’re understandably sensitive and will not be allowed.

"Wipe Up the Competition" Charity Drive

We’re continuing the beloved tradition of supporting The Tallahassee-Leon Homeless Shelter. Their most urgent need? Toilet paper. The Shelter uses at least 48 rolls per day—over 1,400 rolls a month!

Our goal: donate a month’s supply. Here’s how you can help:

  • Bring a 24-roll pack of toilet paper to the event.
  • Can’t bring TP? Monetary donations are welcome, and we’ll purchase it for you.

If every entrant brings a 24-roll package, we’ll easily surpass our goal. Let’s come together to make a difference!

Mark your calendars, polish your cars, and bring your A-game. Let the competition—and the fun—begin!
