About this event
NOTE!! THIS EVENT IS ON A SUNDAY!!
The Triangle Z Club/Tarheel Sports Car Club HPDE & Time Trial events all require an annual safety inspection. This event is the third inspection day of 2010 hosted by TZC/THSCC. Cost of the inspection is a $5 sticker fee (paid at the time of a successful inspection.) Remember: 2009 inspection stickers will not be accepted after the February TZC/THSCC event!
Any driver and/or vehicle new to the program must have this inspection done before the first event attended each calendar year.
Registration is now set up with individual appointment times. On the registration form, choose what block you want, then choose your individual appointment time. Please arrive 30 minutes before your scheduled time slot.
This tech day is being graciously hosted by Mr. Dick Bear at:
Market Point Productions
113B Griffith Plaza Dr
Winston-Salem, NC 27103
Event requirements
Things you should know before bringing your car to the tech day:
Convertibles
- If your car is a convertible, but does not have a competition approved 4-point roll bar, it will not be issued an inspection sticker
- If your car has factory roll bars, we're always wanting to look at them in person... but chances are, it will not be issued an inspection sticker
- Hard top convertibles are still convertibles
Race Cars
- If your car has been prepared to specific club racing rules, but you do not have a CURRENT safety inspection log book, please sign up
-
Even WITH a current log book, TZC/THSCC still requires the following:
- High Density roll bar/cage padding anywhere a driver's or passenger's head might possibly impact
- Mounted fire extinguisher within reach of driver or working fire suppression system
- Race harnesses not older than 5 years (using SFI date of manufacture) and/or non-expired FIA labeled belts... mounted properly of course
- We do not recommend novice drivers use race cars for their first few events, especially with race tires in place. We do not allow lead-follow instruction in novice groups, so the vehicle must have a passenger seat that meets all safety requirements
Helmets
- TZC/THSCC requires the use of Snell 'SA' rated helmets for all events. Currently, we accept SA2000 and SA2005 labeled units. Beginning January 1st 2011 we will start requiring SA2005 & SA2010 only.
