GGLC AUTOCROSS FORMAT

GGLC Autocross events will have a limited number of drivers to allow drivers to get a large number of runs. Drivers are broken into three run groups A(1), B(2), C(3) and the groups rotate between running, working and resting. All drivers are required to work in both morning and afternoon sessions. We don't allow half-day sign-ups.

Only GGLC members can compete for points. Others should only register choosing fun/practice option provided.
GGLC members running for points must properly fill out their car class information. Remember, we will score your points using indexed times based on this information. It is your responsiblity to enter correct information. When unsure please contact us for clarification. See below on details of indexed times calculation.
Incorrect car classification may lead to artifically low indexed times which in turn will unjustly place you ahead of the others. If this happens and others protest event organizers will correct results once the truth is established.
We use permanent number system throuout entire year race season and don't allow duplicate numbers. Acceptable numbers are given from the pool 1...999. Leading zeroes are ignored (i.e. 042 and 42 is the same number). Once the number is used it stays with that driver as long as you actively participate in our events (if you don't show up for over a year we may revoke the number and give it to some one else).
If you want to use your own car numbers or want to change number please contact us to make sure your desired number is not taken already by some one else.
Chuforia graffix is the official graphics provider for the GGLC. You can order numbers or any other car graphics at this link.
If you don't have your own number answer "yes" to relevant question when registering.
If you drive at the event you're required to honor your work assignment.
If you sign up for event you are required to honor your work assignment for entire day. If you have some kind of emergency situation please exercise common cortesy and work it out with event chair so that your position can be covered.

COMPETITION CLASSES.
Members of GGLC club can choose to compete for points in one of the 2 classes:

Class	Cars allowed	Class Index
Elise	Any production modification of Elise or Exige on any tires	Use Classification Tool
Open	Virtual class for all other car makes/models. Choose appropriate SCCA Solo-2 Class to make your indexed time come out right.	Based on SCCA Class

If you compete in Federal Elise or Exige please use GGLC Elise/Exige Classification Tool which allows us to determine your class and the PAX Index. Select the appropriate options for your car and press the "Classify" button to get your GGLC autocross class (Lotus Elise/Exige only). Enter this class information into the registration form here during sign-up. If you have any questions about this page or the classing system please contact autox@gglotus.org

If you want to compete for season points in Open class you need to know your SCCA Solo-2 car class. Check out this page for reference. You can find PAX values for 2010 at this link

TIRE and CAR indexing rules
for those competing in our classes we will rank your indexed times.

If you compete in Open class please choose appropriate SCCA class on a sign-up form. We no longer calculate tire index for Open class. If you choose SCCA class it's assumed you will run on most competitive tires allowed for that SCCA class.

If you run Federal Elise or Exige then use our GGLC Classification Tool which will take into account your tire choice.
