Registration/Check-in from 9:00-10:00am
Mandatory tech inspection will start at 9:00am and run until 10:00am. Check-in will also run at this time. You must first check-in to get your car number & sticker BEFORE going through tech. IF in the event you miss the tech inspection; you will not be able to drive until after break. Day-of registration will be available if there are spots still left. An additional $40 Day-of registration fee will apply on top of the "Driver Cost" (eg., $150 + $40 = $190 the day of).

Tech Inspection
Please call your local repair facility to have them check over your car. It is up to you to make sure your car is in working order prior to the event either by a qualified technician, or by you. Our certified technicians will do a once over on your car the morning of the event to make sure you’ve done your part ahead of time. Snell 2000 M or SA rated (or preferrably newer) helmet required. No DOT helmets will be accepted. Below are some recommended repair facilities:
Steve's European Automotive, Inc. 248-674-2770 / 4920 Pontiac Lake Road, Waterford MI 48328
German Auto Service, Ltd. 616-454-3289 / 1014 Scribner, Grand Rapids MI 49504
Please note: You still have to go through registration then tech inspection, but it’s always good for peace of mind to have this done ahead of time.
We will not permit you to drive your car if it does not pass tech inspection the day of the event.

Drivers Meeting at 10:00am
A mandatory drivers meeting is to follow the tech inspection starting promptly at 10:00am. There are always several new people to the track and several people who need a reminder of safety rules. DO NOT BE LATE. Flags, safety rules, and other questions will be covered at this time.
PLEASE REVIEW THE TRACK COMMUNICATIONS SECTION prior to May 8th.

Lunch from 12:30pm – 1:30pm
Lunch break is from 12:30pm until 1:30pm. Refuel, recharge, and get ready for your next session! This is the perfect time to ask questions while you eat a sandwich! Lunch will not be provided, so be sure to bring your own, or you may purchase food from the concession stand at Waterford hills, or of course leave the track to get a bite to eat. Please be back on time prior to your next scheduled session.

Equipment
Your car can NOT be leaking any fluids of any kind. Nothing is to be loose, or falling off. Wheel lugs must be torqued. Brake lights must be working. You must have some type of seatbelt, harnesses preferably. We allow stock factory seatbelts, 4, 5, & 6 point harness'. If you have a harness, it's also best to have at least a roll bar, preferably a roll cage.
You must wear a helmet (Snell 2000 M or SA rated or newer & not damaged). No DOT helmets will be accepted. Convertibles must have roll bars that support the weight of the vehicle & be higher than the participant’s helmet. All loose objects that may fly around must be taken out of your car prior to tech inspection (including floor mats). Although it’s not mandatory, we strongly suggest you have your car inspected preferably by a technician (if you are not familiar with what to look for) 1 week before the event (Please see “Cancellation Policy”). Basically, if you think something is questionable, you probably shouldn’t drive it on the track. Bring your tools, you’ll probably need them! Please ask if you have any questions.
