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.

STATE OF NJ RULES
The state of New Jersey has various additional rules that apply to racing at NJMP. Lemons will only be enforcing Lemons rules on site, but state officials may enforce the non-Lemons rules. For a full rundown of NJ regs, click here.
