Cassino is correct. Solo rulebook page 218 section C states "A minimum distance of 75 feet from the course edge shall be maintained for all unprotected viewing areas..."

Oh..based on some of the places they stand (or like at triad - ride a bike onto a hot course) I would call them "Morons".
Is that correct??? huh, is it?

I suppose the PC answer, is "someone that the SSS is supposed to protect and keep a safe distance from the event, etc, etc."

There are no spectators. They are non-participants.

There are no spectators. They are non-participants. And they are anyone who has not signed the insurance waiver.

At first glance, Shane's first answer is the best , However...... Cassino is "technically" incorrect JB, you were only "half" right. Appendix E, Section 1, page 209 defines a spectator as "a non-participant", with a "non- participant" being defined as "those individuals that have not signed the SCCA waiver". However, On page 221, the definition of a spectator is - "A spectator is defined as any non-participant OR one not signing the waiver." Thank you for playing. Stay tuned for the next question.....

They way the SCCA insurance is setup is that autocrosses count as a non-spectator event so offically in the eyes of the SCCA there is no such thing as a spectator at an event. and the answer to #3 is 25 feet.

But, in any case, you are correct.
Rulebook page 215 states "Rule 2.1 states in part that "The course boundary shall not pass closer than 25 feet from solid objects"
Lucky for you James!!!

Question #4 - TRUE or FALSE
It is the responsibility of the SSS to assure that waivers are signed.

Woulda looked it up but left the book at work. Well i gotta do summin' during the day. Think the real answer is yes (true) And the waiver person is allowed to shoot anyone w/o an arm band.
P.S. there is absolutely NO truth to the roumors that some people were strip-searched before being allowed to enter the event area.

I would like to propose karma as a reward for correct answers but im bias.
