We likely won’t break for lunch, depending on the pace, and will aim to finish earlier—so be sure to bring food if you’ll get hungry.
In addition to racing, you'll be working the course for roughly 60 to 90 minutes. lt will be dusty and could get sunny depending on the weather. We recommend the following items:
- Sunscreen
- Hat
- Sunglasses
- Insect repellent
- Disposable face mask for dust
- Water, Gatorade, or similar beverages
- Close-toed shoes
BRING A SNELL CERTIFIED HELMET - We will have loaner helmets available if necessary, but for many reasons—both for your benefit and ours—it’s strongly recommended that you bring your own. Please note that we do not accept helmets that are only DOT approved.

Event requirements
Your car should be technically inspected BEFORE the drivers meeting. To pass tech, you must:
- Clean out any loose items in the car, this includes cell phones cables, garage door openers, loose change and such.
- The battery has to be properly secured.
- If your floor mats are not physically attached to carpet, they will have to be removed. We don’t want the floor mat to bunch up under the brake or gas pedals.
- Have a SNELL approved helmet, 2010 or newer (M-rated or SA-rated). We do not accept DOT-only approved helmets.
It is your responsibility to:
- Check basic fluids such as oil, coolant, and brake.
- Make sure you torque the lug nuts to manufacturer's recommended tightness.
- Make sure you have no active leaks on the motor, transmission or diff. Oil on the track is a bad thing.
- Check tire pressure. If you don’t know what to set it to, ask ASAP.
- Your tires MUST be serviceable, meaning they have appropriate tread, no chords showing, etc.
Trucks and SUVs are not allowed at THSCC events due to their higher center of gravity, increased rollover risk, and potential to cause excessive wear to the course. If you’ve modified your vehicle in a way that you believe warrants an exception to this rule, please email the registrar to request approval. Exceptions will be considered on a case-by-case and site-specific basis.
Convertible cars must have an approved hard top.
