- Car Requirements:
- General: Member’s cars from the Prewar era through the early ‘70s are encouraged to participate. We love to see former race cars (and drivers) who may not be competing anymore, or vintage road-going sports cars that our fellow VSCCA members want to enjoy on track. When in doubt, ask the Event Chair if your vehicle is the right fit.
- Tires: Treaded tires required. Cars with slicks will not be allowed to run.
- Muffled: Yes. Please make sure your car meets the sound requirement of 86db or less. It is at the track's discretion to remove you from the event if you are over the sound limit due to town ordinances. We cannot issue refunds or any credits due to non-compliance.
- Technical Inspection: All cars must pass a simple tech inspection. Please fill out the standard VSCCA Tech Sheet before the event: Download Tech Sheet here (PDF)
- Car Safety Equipment: Seatbelts in good condition are required (no date code). Onboard fire extinguishers, are recommended but not required.
- Passing: This is a non-competitive lapping group. Passing is open on the front straight, please no more than two abreast and complete all passes by pit out (where the pit wall ends). Passing on the back straight by point-by is also allowed. Absolutely no passing in the corners. Watch your mirrors and be courteous. If someone sits on your tail through the turns, let them pass you on one of the straights and see their line. Safely swapping position on the straights is fun.
