The event will take place RAIN OR SHINE. In the event of severe weather, a decision will be made at the driver’s meeting to determine whether or not we will be running. If the decision is made to cancel the event earlier than that, you will be contacted by email.

Heats

The event is split into 3 heats, as an entrant you will drive in 1 heat, work in 1 heat, and the other heat is you can relax and watch the other entrants on-course.

Pre-registration is open to 40 cars per heat.  Additional cars can be added the day of the event.

Dual driver cars - Try to make sure that your co-driver is signed up for a different heat if possible. If this is not possible, we will stagger your runs during the heat, so you have time to change drivers.

Workers

The work schedule will be as follows:

Heat 1 drivers will work Heat 2

Heat 2 drivers will work Heat 3

Heat 3 drivers will work Heat 1

Workers will meet with the Chief of Workers (COW) at a designated location approximately 15 minutes prior to the heat they will be working. The COW will then assign your work position.

Workers will change out on the fly. So if you are working heat 3, you will need to be ready to head out onto course the minute the last car in heat 2 crosses the finish line.

All entrants are REQUIRED to participate in the FOD walk down at the end of the event. The event OD will address exceptions on a case-by-case basis.

We will be keeping track of workers. Every person driving in the event MUST work the event. If you do not work the event, and have not notified the OD with a valid reason for not working, you will not be able to participate in the next event. If this circumstance should happen twice, you will be banned from participating in any more events this season. Nobody is getting paid to put on these events; everybody has to chip in to make it happen.

Numbers:
All cars will required to have their number displayed on each side of the car.  Numbers must be at least 8in tall and must be a contrasting color to the color of the car.

Interior:
Make sure that you clean out all the unnecessary stuff that you have inside your car. Loose speakers, stuff hanging from the rear view mirror, wrappers and those wrenches that you have been carrying around need to be removed. Clean it as if you were selling it. Remove the floor mats. Grab a plastic grocery bag (or two) and put everything in. They also come in handy when “restuffing” the car at the end of the day…

Trunk:
Clean it out with the exception of stuff that you don’t mind leaving in your parking space at the event. For example; spare tire, tools, jack, lawn chair.

Car preparation:
Check that all your lug nuts (wheel bolts) are there and torque them to your owner’s manual specifications (if you have hubcaps leave them at home)
Check that all your tires are in good shape (real tread, not corded, etc…)
Please don’t put on a new coat of tire shine…
Make sure your brakes work well
Clean your windows
Make sure your battery is secured (Bungy Cords are not acceptable)

When you get to tech, please place your registration card under your driver’s side wiper.
If you need to put your number and class on your windshield, please do this while your car is being teched. We will provide window markers or shoe polish if you do not have any.
If you don’t know what class you’re in let us know before we tech your car.
If you are in the first 50 numbers, please go directly to grid after tech.

Tech WILL shut down for the Mandatory drivers meeting. The tech guys are drivers too and the meeting is for ALL drivers. They will open again as soon as the driver’s meeting is over. The tech lanes will close when the first car is on course.
