Additional Information:

Helmets: Required to wear a Snell 2000 or later SM or SA certified helmet. ETR will have loaners available. DOT certifications are not recognized.

Insurance Waiver: Everyone on site will be required to sign an insurance waiver, driver or spectator (same as all SCCA Solo events).

Workers: For these events to work, everyone will also have a work assignment when their run group is not active. We will have experienced autocrossers with all of the novices if they are assigned to shagging cones.

Car Numbers
: For car numbers, shoe polish on the windows is specifically illegal in the SCCA. Numbers need to be on both sides and readable at a distance when the car is on course. Painters tape or drafting tape of a color contrasting with the car color works, or numbers on paper taped to the car (not good in the rain). We will have materials at the event. Choose your number when registering on MyAutoEvents.com. Duplicates are obviously not allowed. Do not register in the “Pro indexed class”. We will use this for ETR non-Mini drivers.

Technical Inspection: All cars will have to pass the standard SCCA Solo tech inspection. Tech will close at 10:00 am. Be prepared by having all loose items removed from the car including the drivers side floor mat, car un-locked, hood and rear hatch open. Some tech items:
  • Tires should have no cord showing
    Brakes – Fluid at proper level and firm pedal
    Seat belts in good operating condition
    No excessive fluid leaks
    Wheel bearings, shocks, suspension and steering in good condition
    Throttle return action safe and positive
    All wheel lugs present and tight
    Hub caps and wheel rings removed
  • Drivers Meeting
    Mandatory at 10:30 am. Cars will be classed according to the SCCA Solo rules. Choose your class when registering on MyAutoevents.com.
    PAX (RTP) index will be used to determine overall winner
    No smoking in grid area
    Please respect the site, pick up after yourself, and leave it in better shape than when you arrived. We want to be able to use the site in the future.
