Q&A

Where can register for this event?

We are using MotorSportReg for members to register.

Please provide cellphone number.  We’ll be using cellphones as our communication tool.

Can I stay at different hotel instead of Eldorado Resort Casino, Reno?

Yes, since members will book their hotels, Eldorado Resort Casino is our suggestion, and it is our gathering place.

Can I bring a guest?

Yes, a registered member can bring 1 guest, and the guest will count as a participant.  However, the guest must ride with the registered member on this whole trip, and the guest can’t drive a vehicle separately.

Will we be breaking into sub-groups on the road trip?

Yes, safety is our priority, and it will depend on how many vehicles we will have on this trip.  We might break the caravan into sub-groups for road safety (volunteer leaders will be needed and assigned).  However, we will all be regrouping at the pit stops.

All the SFBA section activities follow the State and Counties’ COVID-19 guidelines, face masks mandatory and social distancing required.
