Some commonly asked questions

We will have a professional videographer and photographer on-site for both days.


---Quote (Originally by 6literEat'r)---
sorry if ive overlooked this, im sure i have, what time do drivers need to show up for their day of racing?
---End Quote---
Drivers will need to arrive between 6:00-6:45a.m. Runs will start around 8:30a.m.


---Quote (Originally by redevo58)---
Are there any tire regulations?
---End Quote---
There are no tire regulations.


---Quote (Originally by Lead Pipe)---
What time do runs usually start and end for the day. I just realized I double booked myself on June 1.
---End Quote---
You'll need to arrive at 6:00-6:45a.m. on Saturday morning. Runs start around 8:30a.m go until 12:00pm then we take an hour lunch break. After that runs will resume from 1:00p.m. to 6:00p.m.


---Quote (Originally by wildabeast)---
Are we allowed to have a passenger during the run?
---End Quote---
No. Passengers are not permitted for 2013, new insurance regulations.


---Quote (Originally by clint282cc)---
can we cook out in the pits? sounds like you will only have food for the drivers. doesnt sound like htere will be a consesions and if there is it will be miles long before we get a burger... can we bring our own for the "pit-crew"?

We actually have 2-3 food trucks coming in from downtown Chicago to sell food to all the spectators and driver crews. You can bring snacks etc but no grilling and/or cooking will be permitted on-site.

i also want to know what time we should show up for tech inspection etc etc. looks like racing starts at 8 and ends at 6. IIRC 6am is the show up time????
---End Quote---
Drivers show up between 6am-6:45a.m. Everyone will be emailed this info when the event gets closer.
