Due to the anticipated size of the event, it will mean that participants will be divided into groups. Each group requires a lead and sweep car. Are you willing to fill one of these roles?
Even if you are not a lead or sweep car, all members should be familiar with the PCA Tour Guidelines https://www.pca.org/resource/event-guidelines-tour
For safety reasons, Lead and Sweep Cars will use GMRS Radios set to Channel 7, Sub-channel 20. If you have on, please bring it.
