We don't require membership; anyone is welcome to participate, as long as they have a driver's license. We do require a release form signed by a parent or guardian for partipants under 18.
Due to safety issues, we don't allow motorcycles. Similarly, we don't allow vehicles with high centers of gravity, like SUVs. If you have doubts about whether you'll be allowed to run, feel free to write to us before the event.
In addition, there is a brief safety inspection which all cars must pass before being allowed to run. We check to ensure that your battery is firmly fastened to the car, that there are no loose items in the car to fly around, and similar things. This safety inspection is in no way comprehensive -- you are expected to bring a safe car to the event, and we are just doing a simple spot check to try to verify that you have.
We use the regular SCCA classes, as outlined in Jerry Mouton's top-notch web site. In addition, we have an OSP class, open to just about any car that runs on DOT tires, and the VSP and VS for vintage street prepared and vintage stock cars (the SCCA stock class, not the NASCAR one :-), respectively.
If this is your first event, don't worry about it too much. We're a relaxed club and will try to get you set up with the appropriate class. If you have further questions, by all means write us at the address at the bottom of the page.
You have to participate in more than half of the events. For example, if we have the expected 14 event series, you'd have to run at least eight of them. If events are canceled (as occasionally happens) that number will be adjusted appropriately.
