Liability Waiver
ALL ATTENDEES, INCLUDING NON-DRIVER SPECTATORS MUST SIGN A LIABILITY WAIVER TO BE ALLOWED ONSITE. Please visit the SpeedWaiver page for this event to sign the waiver electronically.
Gates open at 7:00 am. We recommend that you arrive as close to 7:00 as possible, but certainly no later than 8:45 as this helps us plan the event. Arriving on time ensures you will have plenty of time to clean out your car cabin and trunk (remove all loose items, car matts, etc), set tire pressures, put on car numbers and walk the course and helps our volunteers (tech inspection, sign-in, etc.) get ready for the event themselves. All drivers must be 18+ and present a valid driver’s license at registration. All events are rain or shine. Refunds are available if you request one by noon of the day before the event. You must wear closed shoes and a helmet when you drive. Helmets should be rated Snell 2010 or newer. As noted above, LOANER HELMETS WILL BE AVAILABLE ONCE AGAIN.
Other rules may apply. If you have any questions, please contact Autocross Chair Ernie Grasso.
