SPECTATORS
All-access / all-weekend spectator pass is $30 (click here); spectator pass covers race days and pre-race test & inspection day. Spectators have full paddock access but DO NOT have hot-pit access. Spectators are not allowed to touch a race car—anyone wrenching, fueling, etc. needs to register on a team as a crew member.
SPECIAL MINOR INFORMATION
Sebring has a strict minor waiver procedure. Any minor entering the facility will have to adhere to their rules. If a minor is NOT accompanied by a parent or legal guaradian, the adult accompanying the minor will be required to acquire the proper paperwork.
GARAGE MAP
Pit-lane garages will be offered for rent here and by email to all paid participants as the race gets closer. If your team reserves an optional pit-lane garage, your space assignment will be given to you by email in advance of the race.

PARKING/PADDOCK/FACILITIES
•Parking is first-come first-served unless reserved parking is specifically mentioned by Lemons or offered by the track.
•Every team entry (ie, one racecar) gets 20x40' in the main paddock. Anything that doesn't fit in that box must be moved to spectator/overflow parking (shown on the paddock map).
•Race control is off-limits to participants and spectators.
PARTICIPANT ARRIVAL / CHECK-IN / TECH
•All participants must be pre-registered.
•Check the Paddock Map to see where stuff's located.
•Check the Event Schedule to know when stuff happens.
•GO TO DRIVER-GEAR TECH (near HQ or Tech) ANYTIME during Tech hours. (PUT ON AND WEAR your full safety gear, including the head/neck restraint--don't make us dig through some sweaty-ass gear bag)
•GO TO DRIVERS-LICENSE CHECK (at HQ) ANYTIME during Tech hours. Show your valid, current, unrestricted street license to receive the required Lemons Driver wristband. (Legit hard cards only--insurance requires us not to accept photos or copies.)
•GO TO CAR TECH AT YOUR ASSIGNED TECH TIME. Bring your car and COMPLETED tech sheet; assigned Tech times are linked from the Event Schedule one week before the event.
FUELING (READ CAREFULLY FOR SEBRING-SPECIFIC DETAILS)
•Fueling will be in the hot pits (and track pumps). No fueling in your paddock space during the race.
•Everyone in the fueling area must be in full safety gear.
•Everyone in the fueling area must be a registered driver or crew member--no spectators (we will be checking arm bands).
•Bring your supplies up, fuel the car, and take it all away. No staging of fuel or gear.** (read carefully below)
•There are partially assigned hot-pit spots.** (read carefully below)
•Don't park support vehicles near the fuel area.
•Kill switch off; no one in car; drip pan in place; and a dedicated extinguisher person are all mandatory while fueling.
•Only fueling, driver change, and cool-suit ice changes allowed in the hot pit. For everything else (tire pressure, fluid checks, engine swaps) go to the paddock.
•Full gear not required at track pumps, but no one can be in the car and the kill switch must be off.
**For teams that have rented an optional garage, fuel storage is NOT allowed inside the garage: You must store all fuel and fuel containers on the garage/cold-pit side of the hot-pit wall. EZ-up tents for fuel shade are permitted for garage renters ONLY. Garage renters can refuel in the hot pits directly across from their assigned garage spot. Teams not renting a garage must refuel in the designated refueling area along the hot pits (or, make a friend with a garage renter and refuel there). Non-garage renters are NOT allowed to store fuel/gear/tents in the hot pits--bring a cart/wagon/sherpa to shuttle your stuff to/from the public fueling area. For ALL teams (garage renters and non-renters), the hot-pit wall is not a hangout spot--you are only allowed to stand there when actively refueling the car.
PADDOCK SPACE IS LIMITED: Every team entry (ie, one racecar) gets 20x40' in the main paddock. Anything that doesn't fit in that box must be moved to spectator/overflow parking (shown on the paddock map)
OVERNIGHT CAMPING: One camping fee (paid in the team's online reg) covers overnight dry camping for all team members
ELECTRICAL HOOKUPS: Hookups are located along fence line separating grass paddock from concrete paddock. They are $100 for 30/50amp for the weekend. You will pay for this with Sebring guard as you enter the facility. Those spaces are first come, first served.
GARAGES: Reserved through Lemons. Garages become available to fully paid teams a few weeks before the race. All registered racers will get an email before they're released.
