    G. Order of Running:

    2. All drivers will be offered at least three (3) official timed runs on the course.

    3. Cars must be on the grid/staging area within 10 minutes of the class being announced. A ‘DNS’ shall be posted for failing to grid within the allotted time. Cars having mechanical difficulty shall have 10 minutes after the runs for their respective group are scheduled to start. A car experiencing problems shall be moved to a safe location on grid for verification and/or repair of the problem. A ‘mechanical DNF’ will be posted for any car unable to execute its run.

    4. All re-runs shall be made according to 5.8.F of the Rules. In case a competitor is red-flagged on course, the competitor may continue slowly through the remainder of the course, or may exit the course directly and will be granted a re-run. Failure to exit the remainder of the course at a safe and reasonable speed shall result in a DNF for that run.

    5. A minimum of five (5) minutes shall pass before a competitor is allowed to execute a re-run.

    6. Competitors needing to run outside of their assigned run group must do so in writing to the Event Chair(s) prior to the drivers meeting. Adequate justification (eg. Work conflict) is required. This applies to Championship Events only. Competitors running out of group may be subjected to protest if a weather change influences results in their favour. If such a protest if filed, an appropriate time penalty will be determined by the Steward of the Event.

    H. Course Markers:
    1. A two second penalty shall be recorded for each upright pylon displaced either out of its marker or knocked over. Directional pylons (already on their side) do not count if displaced.

    2. Chalk lines marking the path are for visual information only and no penalty is posted for driving outside of the lines (where applicable).

    3. Drivers observed by course workers and/or Timing & Scoring officials as driving substantially less than normal competition speeds for the purposed of spotting misplaced pylons in order to earn a re-run shall be referred to the Event Steward for action. Such activity is seen as unsportsman-like and an unnecessary delay of the event. It may result in a DNF for that run.

    I. Timing & Scoring:
    1. Scoring shall be performed in accordance with 5.8 (entire section) of the Solo Events Rules.

    2. Drivers running in Ladies and Novice classes shall run in accordance with the run order, as determined the morning of the event.

    3. THE TIMING VEHICLE AND/OR TIMING & OR SCORING AREAS ARE OFF LIMITS TO ALL BUT AUTHORIZED INDIVIDUALS. If you have to ask then you are not authorized.

    J. Protests & Appeals:
    1. All Inquiries, Protests and Appeals shall be performed according to Sections 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of the 2001 CACC GCR and 5.11 of the Solo Events Rules.

    K. Workers:
    1. All competitors are required to work the event. If a condition exists that prevents a competitor from working, a qualified replacement must be found. The Chief of Workers must be notified prior to the substitution. Failure to notify the Chief of Workers shall result in additional work assignments or disqualification by the Event Chair.

    2. Any rescheduled work assignments must be approved by the Event Chair before the start of the event.

    3. Early work assignments that offset a normal work assignment must be pre-approved by the Event Chair. These assignments are extremely limited in order to prevent a shortage of support during the event. Serving as a volunteer prior to the event is greatly appreciated, and a key to the success of these events. However, this does not automatically offset a regular work assignment.

    4. Workers must report to the Chief of Workers for assignments. Failure to report shall result in disqualification.

    5. Workers must be on their feet at all times while cars are competing.

    6. Photographers on course must be located in approved areas and must be accompanied with a designated spotter. A minor or course worker may not act as a spotter.

    L. Trophies:
    1. Trophies and awards shall be awarded according to participation levels outlined in 5.9.E of the Solo Events Rules. Trophies will not be mailed. Please have a designated recipient of your trophy if you cannot stay for the presentation.

    M. Out of Province Competitors:
    1. Out of Province/Region competitors shall be classed according to preparation level of their vehicles as assessed by CACC officials. This will be done during Event Check-in (Late Tech) so please allow extra time to process you through.

          One of these days, we'll need a microfiche reader.

          mmm, now that CACC event results are no longer mailed out (for those of us who signed up for that), perhaps we can do the same for the event supp regs?

            Les,

            Lawrence has been trying very hard to save the cost and hassle and unnecesary expense of mailing out sup-regs. CACC hasn't been very receptive to the idea however. Eventually, they'll cave in to the 1990's

              sorry 'bout that folks. These supps are the same format as last year, but last year you didn't need an electron microscope to read them! I'll have to talk to Bob at Mailboxes before we send out our next set.

              As for the results, get your microscopes out, we're going to get them printed on a business card to reduce printing costs.
