We typically finish up around 5:00 pm.
There will be a hard registration cut-off at 8:15 am on the day of the event. You are *required* to be prompt if you expect your pre-registration to hold! Showing up after that doesn't allow you time to walk the course. Drivers not familiar with the course often get lost and slow the event down, which isn't fair to others, and the waitlist is filled starting at 8:15

Event requirements
Event Requirements
Basic Event Guidelines and Safety
- A valid driver's license is required to participate; please bring your driver's license with you to registration. Temporary permits are allowed if the parent/guardian remains present while driving.
- Please note that our insurance doesn't allow tippy vehicles like SUVs. Please consult the 2024 SCCA Solo Rulebook section 3.1 and the beginning of Appendix A. Regardless of the listing, all vehicles may be subjected to the Height/Width check by the SSS's on-site.
- Before running, all vehicles must pass safety inspection on the following points: working seat belts, throttle return action, secure battery, *no* leaks, adequate brake pedal, tire condition, tie-rods, and wheel bearings.
- Remove all loose items, snap-on hubcaps, detachable fender skirts, speaker boxes, center caps, and trim rings.
- Closed-toe shoes are required (no sandals or flip-flops) while driving.
- Helmets are required (Snell M2010/SA2010 or newer). We have a limited supply of loaner helmets for the events. If you don't know your helmet's rating, you can look inside for a sticker; you may need to pull back some of the padding to locate the sticker. If you want to purchase a helmet, you can look online at places like Pegasus Auto Racing Supplies.
- All adults present at the event site (whether they are participating or not) must sign the waiver when they arrive.
- Minors must have a signed waiver, which must be printed in color. This process must be done online before the event. Please look at the SCCA instructions on how to fill out these waivers and the SCCA Minor Waiver Instructions. Go to My.SCCA.COM to either login or create a guest account. Under the tab at the top called Online Store, you will see a licenses and waivers tab where the minor waiver needs ot be filled out. One parent/legal guardian must be onsite for the entire event. If on a learner's permit, the parent can either ride along with the student or give written permission to have an instructor ride with them instead.
- The complete 2024 SCCA Solo Rulebook is available on www.scca.com; other local rule changes will be posted in the supplemental regulations on our website.
