1. XP class is what kit cars are in..First timer you will be in XP and Novice 2..This is what you sign up at registration for..
2. Tech is super easy..Mainly looking for bolt down battery..Carb return spring..AND no NO2 on site AT ALL..Won't let you race..You need a helmet BUT if you don't own one they have loaner helmets for free to use. Anything loose in the cabin and trunk must be removed..
3. We mainly run in an open parking lot with no parking light poles or anything to hit..The only thing that you can hit is a traffic cone..If you are worried about paint scuffs..Blue painters tape on the front will take care of that..This is a special event so I heard that it will be on one of the road courses of FireBird or Bondurant own..It will be "neutered down". Straights are cut down and you really can't go that fast..Second gear is what I usually get into.. A Lot of turns and braking here..This is my second year and go often. Never seen a car wreck..This special event draws A LOT of people with six figure cars..High end Porsche, BMW and Ferrari's are a common site..These people don't want to wreck their cars and would not show up if that did happen..So can you crash?..I guess any thing is possible BUT highly unlikely..
4. How much..If you are a member of the SCCA..Registration Fee SCCA Members: $20 Pre-Registration, $30 at Event
IF YOU ARE NOT A MEMBER
Registration Fee Non-Members: $30 Pre-Registration, $35 at Event
You DO NOT have to join the SCCA if you just want to come out and play once in a while..So if you clink on the link I provided and pre-register..30 bucks..If you just show up the day of..35 bucks..That's it..No parking fees or entrance fee..I hope I answered all of your questions..Dave
