In grid and paddock, please drive slow and be mindful of people, cars, equipment, and oncoming traffic sharing close quarters. A limited number of loaner helmets will be available. If using one during a run, please return it to the loaner helmet area.

Run/Work
Run/work assignments will be pre-assigned based on the entry list, and in a manner that balances heat sizes and worker coverage. Changes in class or no-shows may demand a change in heat arrangement. Workers should be ready to report for work before their heat begins. Heat change overs will be brief. Please listen for announcements made by the Chief Of Workers and be on time for your work assignment. Lateness may be taken as a no-show, and result in a disqualification.
