IMPORTANT INFO ON POLICIES AND PROCEDURES DUE TO THE  SARS-CoV-2 PANDEMIC:

• Please read BMW CCA National's official "COVID Policy" page (LINK).
• In concurrence with National's official policies, we will again not be mandating instructors for novice participants.  However, instructors will be available upon request during all events.
• Note that rental helmet availability will be limited.  There is a risk you could be turned away due to lack of rental helmets.  If so, you will be refunded.  Note that we have no way of knowing ahead of time what the rental helmet situation will be.

Vehicle Class:

To be eligible for points in your standings against other drivers, you must classify your vehicle before registration using the spreadsheet provided below. If you prefer not to classify your vehicle, you can simply enter "U" for unclassified during registration. However, please note that cars competing under the unclassified category will not receive any points.

AX_Classification_Worksheet_2022-04-24.xls If you've used this same spreadsheet to classify your vehicle since 2019, and your car hasn't undergone any modifications or changes, your class will remain the same, and there's no need to go through the classification process again.

Participant Number:

You must choose your participant number according to the documents below and set it DURING registration for the event.  Please pay heed to the legibility guidelines explained in the "AX Number Assignments and Marking" document.

Number Assignments and Marking Requirements:  AX_Number_Assignments_and_Marking_2018-03-04.docx

Please purchase or fabricate your markings before coming to the event, or bring your own marking materials to the event.  Although we may have a small supply of marking materials on hand, marking materials are not included with the event fee and the marking materials on hand are for "emergency" use and should not be relied on as your regular marking materials for your vehicle.

List of active/open/reserved numbers:  AX_Master_Number_List_2023-10-01.xls   Note that this is not a "live" list -- it is updated at the beginning of each event.  Another participant might have claimed a particular number before you get to it, so any given number showing as being available in this list is not guaranteed to be available.

Additional Important Information:

Please review the documents and policies below before registering, as you will be held to the policies once registered.
