You will not be allowed on track otherwise.

Secure items in the engine bay such as the battery, oil catch can, gerbils for you rotary owners, and anything else that could possibly fall off the car. Or our favorite...could move and melt on your exhaust manifold and have something STUPID like your wiring harness burn up.

No drugs or alcohol will be tolerated at the track. You will be sent home.

The hot pits will be open, so no standing on the pit walls. You can view the track better from the officiating building anyway. Both the viewing stand and hot pit will be pointed out during the drivers meeting.

If you have 2 or more wheels go off track you must come into the hot pit to have your car checked. If you break this rule you will be black flagged off the track.

We will have corner workers on some corners, pay attention to the signals they may give out. Corner workers must be obeyed. When you are out on track they are the ONLY authority out there. The corner worker flags will be covered in the drivers meeting.

Car contact is not allowed. This is not a race.

When pulling into the hot pit, signal the cars behind you with a raised fist out the window that you are pulling into the pits.

Other than driver hand signals, do not stick anything out of the windows. This includes passengers.

Passing Rules:

Passing on the left is preferred. No passing in corners.

The person being passed MUST give a point by signal before being passed. Use your hand to point to the car behind you which side you wish to be passed on. If you wish to be passed on the right, point your hand OVER the roof of your car to the right hand side.

If a car will not let you pass, pull into the hot pits and wait for a break in traffic to continue driving. Do not get impatient.

[b/]Other Miscellaneous Information:[/b]

Drivers will rotate hourly to the corner worker positions. The schedule will be posted once signups are completed. There will be two drivers at each station.

Spot cancellation has to be two weeks before the event.
If anything after two weeks then you can still get a refund if someone else can take your place from the waiting list. If theres any.

BBQ’s and tents are allowed and are an easy way to make friends.

This will be the track configuration.

LOL. Yeah and Its a BOY! Fucking ey... The next TAKUMI. Retarded kids drifting up in the hills.

Flybert · 03-24-2004, 01:59 PM

Damn, if this event was only a few weeks later I'd be up for it. Guess I'll just have to make the March 29th event hold me over for a while. Probably just wait til May for another event so I can save up a little money.

Congratulations on your future son. Boys are so much better than girls. Don't have to worry about them when they grow boobs, don't have to deal with the emotional baggage, you can teach your son how to drive and play sports, etc. Boys are awesome.

I "think" I have everything sorted out engine wise. I fed my gerbils. Car runs good, no more fuel pressure problems. Hopefully I can break the streak. I don't want to have to push the car back into the pits along half the track again.

I have too many things to do around that week.

I am trying to pull a Friday but all Weekends and Fridays are booked.

Flybert · 03-31-2004, 05:55 PM

I took a month off of work and I won't be able to do another one for a while. You should probably postpone it like 2 more weeks so that people can afford to go buy some more tires.
