All Solo events are run under current SCCA National Solo rules with the following amendments.

1.3.2.C specified – Passengers are allowed at all events, with one exception: during competition runs at the
Summer Series Event known as the “Cone Killer Classic”, competitors may not be passengers regardless of whether
the competitor has already completed their competition runs. Infraction of this rule shall be grounds for
disqualification of all runs, for both competitors, for the event. Note: Passengers must still meet all passenger
requirements as defined in the current year SCCA Solo Rules.

3.3 addition – While a car is competing, any and all windows that are adjacent to the driver or a passenger must be
fully open or fully closed such that no part of the occupant may come in contact with an exposed edge of the glass.
Windows adjacent to an occupant that do not open completely must, therefore, be fully closed.

3.7 altered – All cars will be provided with a identification card at registration which needs to be attached such that
it is visible to the timing vehicle when the car is staged. Permanent numbers and class identifiers do not need to be
removed or covered unless they greatly resemble the card provided at registration.

3.8 waived – Entrants do not need to possess manufacturer’s service documentation although allowances supported
by such still apply (e.g., the use of “crash bolts”).

4.2.A extended and specified – Entry to a CPR event requires only a current driver’s license. The entry fee is $30
with a $5 discount to current members of the SCCA.

4.4.B altered – A car may not be entered in a given heat more than twice, but there are no other limits placed on
how many times a car may be entered in an event or class.

4.6 altered – The driver is responsible for the correct determination of the car’s class/category. If in doubt as to
classification or concerning the conformity of the car or its equipment to the rules governing the class the Event
Registrar and/or Event Chair shall make the determination. Any changes to the class of a car after the close of
registration must be approved by the Event Chair.

4.7 altered – There shall be a Ladies Index Class (LIND). Finishing position is determined by the use of the
PAX/RTP multipliers for the current year. Females have the option of running in the Ladies Index Class or the Open
Classes.

4.8.C specified - There shall be a Street Tire class for Novices (STN). Entry into (STN) is limited to those entrants
who have never participated in a Solo event or have competed in 4 or less events in the prior year. All cars running in
(STN) must use tires that conform to the current Street Touring rules, while the car will be classed as if the tires were
DOT R-compounds. Finishing position is determined by the use of the PAX/RTP multipliers for the current year.
There shall be an Index Class (IND). Finishing position is determined by the use of the PAX/RTP multipliers for the
current year.

4.10 altered – The Event Chair and/or Solo Safety Steward may pre-run the course as needed to test for flow and/or
safety. This should be done in a car other than the one which the driver plans to use for competition and should be
done on the day prior to the event, but these limitations are waived when no other cars are available and/or changes
are made to the course on the day of competition. In addition: first-time drivers may be offered an optional, lowspeed
run before competition with an SCCA member as passenger.

4.11 waived – No special license is required.

5.1 waived – The Event Chair is also the Chief Steward.

5.7 waived – The person ultimately responsible for timing and scoring is the Event Chair.

5.8 waived – The main functions of the Chief of Course are fulfilled by the Starter (during competition) and Event
Chair (before and after competition).

5.9 waived – The functions of Chief of Impound are to be fulfilled by the Chief Technical Inspector with help from the
Event Chair.

5.10 waived – The Event Chair is also the Chief Steward. They may also serve as the Operating Steward, Chief of
Timing and Scoring, Chief of Course (when not competing), and Course Designer. The Chief Technical Inspector is
also the Chief of Impound (even though no impounds are held).

6.2 waived – No course maps will be provided.

6.7 waived – Subject to rule 1.3.2.C specified, of this document.

6.8 specified – Option B shall be used with the size of run-groups (heats) determined by the Event Chair.
Registration for run-groups is on a first-come/first-served basis. The one exception is that Jr. karts will run
separately between Heat 1 and Heat 2, Heat 2 and Heat 3 or immediately following Heat 3 as determined by the
Event Chair and/or the Solo Youth Steward. F125 karts may run with cars or run with Jr. karts between Heat 1 and
Heat 2, Heat 2 and Heat 3 or immediately following Heat 3 as determined by the Event Chair, Safety Steward, and/or
the Solo Youth Steward.

6.9 waived – It is assumed that all cars with weight limits are obeying these limits. Official protests concerning
weight are specifically disallowed.

6.10 waived – There shall be no impound. The Chief of Technical Inspection does not become the Chief of Impound
until the Driver’s Meeting or the close of registration, whichever occurs later.

6.11 altered – Preheating tires by driving beyond the paddock and grid area is prohibited. Preheating is here
expanded to include driving faster than a walking pace within ten minutes of placing the car in grid.

7.3 addition – When there is a cancellation due to weather and the competition day is ended due to weather, all
competitors will finish with the same number of runs so that, if by example the event is stopped in the middle of the
third set of runs, none of the third set of runs will count. If competitors get no runs due to cancellation, then those
receiving no runs get a refund of their entrance fee. The loss of the event for that competitor does not count toward
points but it does change the number of events needed for a series year end award.

7.5 waived – Timing failure will not be reported to cars while they are on course.

7.8 waived – Times and penalties need not be tabulated or displayed before the end of competition.

7.9.1 waived – Pylon boxes need not be of a specific size or shape. If a box becomes non-visible, the decision of
Event Chair as to replacement location is final.

7.9.3 altered – If all four tires of a vehicle leave the paved surface simultaneously and go onto an unpaved surface,
the run will be scored as “off course” even if no gates or pylons are missed.

7.10 waived – The format in which results are reported is unspecified, nor will the results be mailed to competitors.
Protests against the results must be filed in person at the first General Meeting of the Region after the results appear
in the newsletter or on the website.

8 altered – Before an official protest is filed, the potential protestor must discuss the matter with either the potential
protestee or an event official.

8.2 waived – Protests do not have to be in writing. Protests should be filed with the Event Chair or Chief of Impound
(Chief of Technical Inspection).

8.2.1 altered – Official protests require a $25 fee.

8.2.2 altered – Protests must be filed before the last competition run is completed.

8.3.2 waived – Protested cars will not be impounded.

8.4 specified – The Protest Committee shall consist of the Chief of Technical Inspection (Chair), the event official
who registered the protested driver or car, and one other person named by the Event Chair, with the provision that all
are members of the SCCA.
