Technical Inspection

Before any car can run, it must be inspected to make sure it is safe and in compliance. The basics of the inspection include:

  • Battery securely bolted down. (This is the most common problem)
  • If your battery is not in the stock location and is a wet cell battery it must be in a enclosed battery box such as one for a marine battery.
  • Tires – no cord showing
  • Wheel bearings, shocks, steering, and suspension in good operating condition.
  • Seat belts in good operating condition.
  • Brakes – firm pedal with no detectable drop with car not running and proper level of fluid in reservoir.
  • All loose items removed (radar detectors, floor mats, etc.)
  • Hubcaps and wheel rings removed unless they bolt on.
  • All lugs present and tight.
  • Throttle return action safe and positive (no sticky throttles)
  • No excessive fluid leaks

Annual Tech Stickers will be available at a cost of $1.00.  We require permanent classing letters and numbers for eligibility to the annual tech program.

Acceptable numbers and class designation must be on both sides of car.

You are responsible for this. Buy magnets, bring painters tape, masking tape, or frog tape (in a contrasting color from your car), or print your numbers and letters at home and tape them to the car. Whatever your solution, it should be legible from 100 feet away while in motion.

Novices must include "N" in your class letters on your car. The "N" should be first. Example: NAS, NSTS, NXP

Waviers

Any competitor or passenger must sign the SCCA wavier, available on site.

Weekend Memberships

SCCA Membership cards will be verified when you check-in at the registration trailer. If you are not an SCCA member, you must register for this event as an SCCA weekend member. Any passenger in a competition car must be a weekend member, but there is no fee for passengers.

Special Wavier for competitors, passengers, or participants that are under 18

All minors under 18 years old require a minor waiver to compete or spectate. For competitors the waiver must be signed by both parents, or by a verified single parent/guardian (requires evidence of status). This waiver is good for all events for a full calendar year from the date of its signing as long as the minor retains the pink waiver copy. For a minor spectator, one parent or guardian can sign a waiver good for a single event.  Althought ETR has minor waviers at the event, it is best to be prepared ahead of event day – get the minor competitor’s waiver completed with all the parent/guardian signatures required.

THIS FORM MUST BE PRINTED IN COLOR

The minor waiver can be downloaded at: https://dk1xgl0d43mu1.cloudfront.net/user_files/scca/downloads/000/014/424/SCCA_Minor_SCCA_Official_1068_09_15.pdf?1461713821 

Print the form (IN COLOR), get it signed by both parents or legal guardians, and present it at the registration table at the event.

Please visit our community forum if you have any questions about this wavier.

Helmets

Loaner helmet availability will be limited due to Covid.  Drivers are highly encouraged to bring their own helmet to ensure that they are able to participate.  If you bring your own, it must meet SCCA guidelines.. Learn more about helmet requirements here.
