We will not tolerate any sort of violent behavior. You will be asked to leave, or permanently banned from our facility!
Racers are required to sign up and pay for all classes before signups close.
One pit spot allowed per person!! Please do not remove chairs for extra space as this means you are using more than one spot.
Racers must corner marshal the race that follows yours. If you have a disability that prevents you from doing so, please let us know ahead of time so we can get a volunteer marshal in your place.
All vehicles must have a chassis protector that fits your vehicle correctly. No duct tape allowed.
All vehicles must have a transponder that works with the Mylaps timing system.
Charging and discharging are capped at a maximum of 10amps. This is non negotiable and if you are caught charging/discharging at a higher amp rate, we will warn you once, and then ask you to leave.
Listen to the Race director!! They have the final say in all aspects of racing for the night.
No arguing on the drivers stand! Friendly banter is fine.
Do not yell at corner marshals!! It is not their fault you crashed. If you have an issue with the way you were marshaled, speak with the race director.
Stock classes must be run in a "blinky" mode on your esc. No timing or boost is allowed for stock classes.
Clean up after yourselves. We have many garbage cans and recycling bins for cans and bottles. If you leave a mess for our staff, you will not be welcome back again.
If you have any questions about our rules, or issues while racing with us, please speak with a store employee, or the on duty race director.
Last but not least, Have Fun!!
