REGISTRATION
During Covid, walk-up spectators, late registration, and late substitutions are not permitted. Everyone through the gate--drivers, crew, family, friends, kids, whatever--must be pre-registered as drivers or crew before the online reg database closes (12 days before the race). Pre-registered crew members are $75; we realize that's steep for kids, but this helps us limit bodies onsite to essential team members and streamline the check-in process. We hope to be back to normal soon!

GARAGES
•An email about garages will be sent out to all registered participants a few weeks before the race
•Only fully paid teams will be eligible to reserve a garage
•There is a limited number of garages and most teams DON'T get one
•Please do not bug us about garages before the email goes out
