1. Participants must be SCCA members (Weekend Memberships are available for $20 and must be  purchased online at the time of registration). 

2. Any driver that has the legal authority (license/permit) to operate an automobile on a public road  may participate in a Track Day (HPDE)/TT event, as long as all restrictions of the driving license  are met. If those restrictions require a passenger, that passenger must be an SCCA Driver  Coach assigned by the Chief Driving Coach.  

3. For All drivers aged 17 and under the parent/guardian MUST contact the Event Lead  (chefjreimer@gmail.com) 7 days PRIOR TO THE EVENT to discuss the Waiver  Approval Process and obtain the proper forms.

4. Everyone attending the event (drivers, crew, family or friends) must Check-In at Registration to  obtain a Wristband. The Wristband is issued once you have verified the SCCA “Release and  Waiver of Liability, Assumption of Risk and Indemnity Agreement” waiver has been signed.

EVERYONE attending MUST “Check-In” at Registration  and obtain an SCCA Wristband. EVEN if you have executed the SpeedWaiver, you must have  the wristband. This is your insurance while at the event, so No Wristband – No Insurance. It  should be noted that LVMS also requires a signature on their own  waiver, by all attendees at the gate, to gain to access their property – this is a separate waiver  that is unrelated to the SCCA Waiver. You must sign both waivers!

Event requirements

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY 
TECH INSPECTION
Our tech inspections are known as "self-tech", and is the standard way track day organizers handle inspections today. Essentially you follow a checklist of items to ensure that all requirements are met, and during registration you will certify that your car meets all the requirements

Tech forms will be available at the event but you are welcome to print out and fill them out on your own
SCCA TT TechForm

Some vehicle tech requirements are as follows:

  • Convertibles without factory rollover protection must have a rollbar OR a hardtop. ie. Miatas (all generations) need to have either a hardtop or an aftermarket rollbar. S2000s only need the factory rollover protection
     
  • If your car has any of the following features, take your car to Tech for Tech Signoff
    • Convertible
    • Aftermarket Seat
    • Aftermarket Seat Belts/Harnesses
    • Roll Bar/Cage
    • Non-DOT Windshield

LVRSCCA reserves the right to refuse a vehicle to be driven on track, if the vehicle is deemed unsafe and does not follow the safety requirements. Drivers who have a vehicle that is declared unsafe will not be issued a refund if their vehicle is unable to pass tech. 

Tech Inspection includes: 

1. Convertibles with roll bars - convertible tops must be fully down or fully up and fastened. 2. Sunroofs must be closed securely. 

3. T-Tops removed. 

4. Operational brake lights are required on all cars. 

5. Restraints must be the same for driver and passenger. The stock 3-point seatbelt is acceptable.  If a person chooses to put in a multi-point harness, they must do so for both seats. Drivers cannot use a harness unless there is an equal one for the passenger. 

6. For participants with an instructor – the front passenger seat must be equivalent to that of the driver. Only the Safety Steward prior to the event may waive this requirement. 

7. All loose items inside and outside the car must be removed including the driver’s floor mat.  8. All Rollbars or Cages must be sufficiently padded with proper materials in any location where an occupant’s helmet could contact the roll structure. The “equal protection for driver and instructor” rule applies here.  

9. Any car that is found to be unsafe during the event must have those problems corrected before continuing.
