Paddock & Parking:

Everyone will be allowed two vehicles in the paddock, 1) your track vehicle and 2) a support vehicle.  “Support vehicle” could be your street car, truck, etc. OR your trailer, but not both (semi tractors may stay attached to their trailers, as long as you can fit in the parking space).  We will have paddock marshals and security patrolling the paddock.  You will be required to move unauthorized vehicles, empty trailers, etc. to one of the parking lots.  DO NOT PARK IN THE PRE-GRID AREA!

 

There are two paddock maps.  Each one shows the details of a different part of the paddock.  Please study BOTH drawings.

• Infineon Paddock-South

• Infineon Paddock-North

Please note the “RESERVED PARKING” area on the Infineon Paddock-North map, across from the tower entrance.  It’s a 25x80 area that is labeled “Tower Officials Parking Only.”  That doesn’t mean ANY official, either.  This means the people that work in Race Control and T&S.  Unless you are one of these people, please do not park in that space.

 

IMPORTANT PADDOCK RULES!  Please review these very carefully, so that you and your friends may enjoy your weekend more safely and without concern of being ejected for breaking one of these simple but very strict rules: http://www.nasaproracing.com/norcal/events/paddock_rules.pdf

 

Sound Limit:

There is a STRICT sound limit of 103 dBA measured 50’ from the line on driver’s right, apex of T12.  Attempts to fool the meter or lift will easily be detected by the track’s dedicated sound person (they hate that!).  So, please prepare to adjust your muffling system if necessary.  This is the same standard that has been in place for years.  Nothing new here.  I just felt that I should remind everyone.

 

Lunch Time:

Please help alleviate long wait times at the concession stand by planning on meals at other-than-peak-hours.  No one wants to stand in a long line and wait for their food.  As participants you will have lots of opportunity to visit the restaurant.  We want everyone to enjoy all aspects of their day, which does not include standing in line for 30 minutes!

 

Kid Club:

This is not official "day care."  We are happy to have a couple of very intelligent and experienced ladies to watch the kids.  We have games and toys.  This is a club service provided at no charge.  The ladies in charge do a great job, however you must understand that if you use this service you do so at your own risk.  So far, we have not had any problems (knock on wood).  Ok, disclaimer over.  It's a lot of fun for the kids of all ages (not recommended for infants) and it gives the parent(s) a break.  Most of all your kid will meet new friends and have fun at the track.  Next time an event comes up, they will be begging you to go along! 

 

Next Event:

Do not wait.  The next event is around the corner (and may already be filled in some HPDE groups).  Check out the registration page for the next event: http://www.nasaproracing.com/nasa_event/list_events

 

Minor Participants (drivers 16 or 17 years old):

Please print out this waiver and bring it to track with a parent's signature. http://www.nasaproracing.com/norcal/event/minor-waiver.pdf.  Note- Minors under 16 years of age cannot participate on track at this event, even with a racing license.  This is a track rule.
