-Course workers must be on their feet at all times while cars are competing.
-While on course, all competition vehicles MUST BE identified by a car number and appropriate car class which must be visible from the timing and scoring area. Cars not meeting this requirement will not be scored.
-Upon successfully completing scrutineering inspection, the Scrutineer will provide a mark to be fixed to the exterior of the car for the duration of the event in a place visible to the Starter (upper left corner of the windshield is recommended). Cars must show the Scrutineer’s official mark or they will not be allowed to enter the course.

difficulty shall have 10 minutes after the car is scheduled to start, to present the car at the start line. Grid personnel will verify the mechanical
difficulty, and will refer the request for a mechanical delay to the Chief Steward in cases where the competitor may gain an unfair advantage by delaying a run, for example changing weather conditions.
-Directional pylons (pylons which are laid on their side) are for informational purposes and do not count if hit. Directional pylons placed directly adjacent to a penalty pylon must be obeyed or a DNF will result. Directional pylons not adjacent to a penalty pylon are for informational

-Drivers are responsible for the actions of their crew and guests. All must sign a waiver to be present in the pre-grid, grid, staging and course
areas. Waiver forms will be available at registration.
-Refueling of cars on site may be permitted only when accompanied by

Managed to get one whole video before my gopro died. I believe this is the run where I killed 2 cones. No rear swaybar made the rear end feel very strange.



Never realized how much I shuffle my hands on the wheel until now.

I had a fun time. Liked the new course so I felt bad for spraying oil all over it when my catch can blew off. :P Thanks to Joel, Bryan and Chris for pushing me back over to the 'pits.' - And everyone else who helped clean up and get me back on the track. Here's 2 videos. The first is my best run. Second is the run that oiled the track although you cant tell except for when it gets a little slippery at the end!
