Sounds like this will be an interesting event.
I no longer have a Competition License and do not have a Time Trial License so I will not be driving.
However, I do plan to be there as a Corner Marshal (Flagging and Communications).
I am not too familiar with the Licensing requirements, car preparation rules, or driver gear requirements for a Time Trials, so I don’t want to guess what is needed.
This Event is much more than an autocross/Solo and most likely has different requirements to enter as a driver.
Be sure to verify driver Licensing, car preparation requirements, and driver gear requirements if you want to enter as a driver.
