Event Conduct
- Safety must be the first priority for all participants. Anyone who is reckless or out of control while driving on course, purposefully or otherwise, will be removed from the event
- Any participant seen speeding or driving dangerously on or around the site shall be disqualified
- All participants are expected to act in a sportsmanlike manner
- All participants must remove all trash from their areas
Safety Inspection / Vehicle Identification
All cars MUST pass a safety inspection before competing. Inspections will be done before each event, or in some cases, an Annual Tech Sticker may be issued.
CCR will honor Annual Tech Stickers from other SCCA Regions and NCAC member clubs.
All Cars Must Have Numbers/Class-Letters on both sides and the SCCA Solo National Rules will be followed, and enforced at time of tech inspection.
Tech will have printed number and letters available at the time of inspection, if needed.
Numbers must be of a contrasting color to the vehicle, or on a contrasting color background.
Numbers and class letters should be positioned next to each other, and must be on body panels, not on windows.
From 2011 Solo National Rules: Numbers must be a minimum of 8” high with a 1.25” stroke. Class letters must be a minimum of 4” high with a 0.75” stroke. In all cases,the height of the class letters must be between 25% and 75% of the height of the numbers. Stroke width must be at least 10% of the height.
Karts may use a reduced size.
Penalties for Failure to Work
When people fail to show up for their work shift or are late to check in for their work assignments by more than a few minutes, the consequences are shared by a larger group of people than you may realize.
If you don't show up for your work assignment session - you will lose all your times for the day, and you will be required to work two sessions prior to driving at the next event.
Exceptions may be granted at the discretion of the event chair or worker steward. These will be addressed on a case by case basis.

SCCA Membership Required for CCR Season Trophies
There are two requirements for CCR Solo Season Trophies:
(1) All drivers must have attended at least 5 of the 9 events in one class to be eligible for a season trophy.
(2) You must be a SCCA member before Points Event #4 through the last CCR Points Event.

CCR Autocross Passenger Rules
After much discussion with various people including several safety stewards, we have come up with the rules for passengers at our autocrosses. They are as follows:
Only one passenger allowed per vehicle
A novice driver, a driver with less than one years experience, is not allowed to have a passenger unless it is an instructor
A competitor is not allowed to ride with another driver until his runs are complete
Exceptions may be made with a novice driver having an instructor, before the instructors runs are complete with the approval of eveyone in the instructors class and the Event Chair.
Passengers must at least 12 years old, and any passenger younger than 18 must have the Minor Waiver form signed by both parents/guardians. The parent/legal guardian signatures must be witnessed by either the registar at the event, a safety steward at the event, or the Event Chair. If the form is signed off site, then it must be notarized.
The purpose of passengers is to expose a potential participant to the sport. It is not meant to show off or to be a hot dog to a friend. Anyone abusing this system will no longer be able to give a ride.
During the 12 and 24 hour events competitors can be passengers before their runs are done, because of the nature of the events. The rule concerning novices will still apply during these events.
All riders must be approved by the Chief Safety Steward for the event or the Event Chair
I hope that this clears up some of the confusion, and will make our events safe for everyone.
Waiver of Liability for Minors
If you are under the age of 18 and intend to be a participant in a SCCA event, you are required to have a "Minor Waiver of Liability and Indemnity". This requires signatures of BOTH PARENTS or LEGAL GUARDIANS. It may be signed by both parents in front of the registrar at the event - or IT MUST BE NOTARIZED if signed without the presence of a SCCA witness!! If you print the form, please do so in "COLOR" so it can be considered official.
Please download the form from this site or the SCCA.com forms section. If you have any questions, please contact the Solo Registrar at slfindlan@att.net or leave a PM for "Saabstory".
CCR Helmet Approval
EVERYONE that has their own helmet will be required to have the helmet checked by a SSS or tech. The helmet must meet the rules (SNELL 2000 or newer).
A helmet that is not SNELL 2000 or newer can not be used.
A DOT-only helmet can not be used.
Helmets MUST meet the rules.
Join SCCA at an Autox, get that Autox Free
If you are not a member of SCCA, join at an autocross and you get to autocross that day for free (or $25 off). From then on, you'll get the member rate at all future events (saving $10 per event).
The free event applies only to NEW members. You can't renew your membership at an event and get that event free... sorry, doesn't work that way.
For those that are SCCA members remember, if you refer someone to SCCA, and they put your name and membership number at the bottom of the application, you get $5 off your next renewal.
Membership cost breakdown:
Individual Member $ 60.00
Spouse Membership $ 20.00
Family Membership $ 95.00
First Gear (you must be age 24 and under) $ 45.00
CCR Membership $20.00
So yearly dues for one person are $80 if you're a CCR member. Not all regions have the same dues, some higher, some lower.
