Gavin bringing '11 Cup. That should be interesting.

mdrums

Well that is way more than 60 cars...the wait list will be huge. My registration said 7:02 central time was when I was registered. I'd like to think I'm in for this event.

jenk12m

aww shux i did mine so fast i didnt look for anything about night driving. thats the only reason i want to do this event

GT3DE

110 registered. I think that was that max last year. If I remember correctly, there were 55 in each of two run groups.

TRAKCAR

60/70 per group.
111 registered now, so there is room for a few more before you go on the wait list..

48 HOURS AT SEBRING

ADVANCED SOLO

ON-TRACK RULES

The Advanced Solo group is allowed to occupy spaces in the hot pits as done for Drivers Education events. There will be no fueling or storage of fuel in the pits. When racing takes place there will be only long pants allowed in the pits.

The following rules will govern the Advanced Solo program at 48 Hours at Sebring. We want everyone to have a lot of fun at this event, but there will be 60 to 70 cars on the track during the Advanced Solo sessions, and there must be adherence to these rules or we will have chaos!

This event will not be run on the principals of democracy. The decision of the Advanced Solo CTI regarding any issue will be final, and there is no appeal.

You have been allowed to participate in this event because the Chief Track Instructor (CTI) of your home region certified that you are an advanced solo driver or you have achieved the status of a PCA Instructor. Therefore, if we determine at the event that you do not have the necessary experience or skill to safely drive this course without instruction, you may not be allowed to further participate in the event.



The three primary rules that will be strictly enforced

There will be NO RACING

Passing Rules must be followed

Aggressive driving will result in disqualification

1. Passing: The Advanced Solo CTI has determined the passing zones for this event, and they are shown on the Track Map which is attached or which will be available at Registration. All passing must take place in those zones, and no one may pass until the driver of the leading car has “pointed-by” the trailing car. Each car in a string of faster cars passing a slower car must receive a separate point-by signal! All passing must be completed within the designated passing zone. Anyone who passes another car without receiving a point-by signal is subject to receiving a black flag for a discussion with the CTI. The second such incident in any day will result in disqualification of that driver for the next session. If a similar incident occurs on a subsequent day, the driver will be disqualified for the remainder of the weekend. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS FOR DISQUALIFIED DRIVERS!

2. Failure to Point-By: Anyone who fails to point-by faster cars within a reasonable time is subject to receiving a black flag for a discussion with the Advanced Solo CTI. The second such incident in any day will result in disqualification of that driver for the remainder of the day. If a similar incident occurs on a subsequent day, the driver will be disqualified for the remainder of the weekend. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS FOR DISQUALIFIED DRIVERS!

3. Car Separation: The general rule for separation between cars is at least two (2) car lengths until a point-by is received. It is the intent of this rule that safe and adequate separation be maintained at all times. “Dive Bombing” will not be tolerated, nor will riding someone’s bumper.

4. Spins: Any driver who spins his/her car must return to the hot pits immediately and report to the CTI for a discussion of the spin. The first spin is considered an educational event. Any driver who spins two (2) times will be excused from further participation in the event. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS FOR DISQUALIFIED DRIVERS!

5. Wheels off: Any driver who has an Off-Course excursion must return to the hot pits immediately and report to the CTI for inspection of the car and discussion of the excursion. “Off-Course” means 2 or more wheels leaving the paved surface of the track, and it includes intentional drive-offs.

6. Aggressive Driving: Passing without a point, dive bombing, passing in no-passing zones, and riding the bumper of the car ahead are considered evidence of Aggressive Driving. The SCCA corner workers will be instructed to black-flag drivers that are driving in an overly aggressive manner. If you are black-flagged for aggressive driving, you are automatically disqualified for the next session. A second offense on a subsequent day will disqualify you for the remainder of the weekend. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS FOR DISQUALIFIED DRIVERS!



7. INCIDENTS

DEFINITIONS: INCIDENT: For the purposes of this rule “Incidents” are of two varieties, Contact and No-Contact, defined as follows:

Contact

1. Car-to-car contact, regardless of damage.

2. Car hitting a wall or any other permanent structure on the track, regardless of damage.

No Contact:

3. Inappropriate or unsafe driving.

RULE: Any driver involved in an Incident (defined above) and found to be “at fault” in the incident will be:

1. Excluded from further participation in the event.

2. Any driver involved in a Contact Incident who leaves the track without reporting to the Advanced Solo CTI shall be deemed “at fault”.



THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS FOR DISQUALIFIED DRIVERS!



On Thursday and Friday, if there are any drivers that have not driven the track, we will try to have those drivers ride with very experienced instructors at Sebring. It is anticipated that “Advanced Solo” drivers will quickly learn the track and will need no further assistance. PLEASE NOTE, this is not an instructed event, however a first time registered 48 hours of Sebring solo driver may ride with an instructor or have an instructor ride with them

PLEASE NOTE: Although this event is run under Driver Education Rules, it is NOT an instructional event: It is essentially a lapping event designed to provide advanced level drivers with a lot of seat time.

Advanced Solo, CTI

savyboy

Very sane. Exactly the kind of event I'd want to attend.

I thought the GT3DE Cup crew used night time for drinking and not driving?

I signed up so fast I forgot all about the Thursday night session too.

4. Spins: Any driver who spins his/her car must return to the hot pits immediately and report to the CTI for a discussion of the spin. The first spin is considered an educational event. Any driver who spins two (2) times will be excused from further participation in the event. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS FOR DISQUALIFIED DRIVERS!

this is important!!!!

aussie jimmy

"FLATOUT 4.0"!!! hahaha

TRAKCAR

Fix it.

Yup, als long as they are strict on black flagging for slow pointy by's as well. Point by's should be given early enough to try and avoid having the passing car having to lift. Ignoring a blue flag for 2 corners should get you sent home.

Fix it.

jenk12m

I emailed the registrar, so we'll see what happens
