Intermediate Run Group


 Drivers Who Belongs Here

This group is for drivers with about 10 to 20 track days experience and who are comfortable driving on the track.

 On-Track Procedures

Passing is allowed anywhere but only with a point-by. If the driver being overtaken is not comfortable with someone passing at some point on the track, he/she should not give a point-by at that point. They should, however, try to give a point-by as soon as they are comfortable doing so. A driver who is overtaking another car shall not pass unless they get a point-by and they may elect not to pass in the event they get a point-by and are not comfortable with the situation. This kind of passing environment requires drivers to work together if they want to have a pleasant track experience.

Lap times will be provide to anyone who has a working transponder in their car. If they run in the "official" timed session(s) for the event they will be included in the time trial results. This assumes that they have a working transponder in their car. Cars without transponders will be considered "run for fun" entries.
