     Two way radios – Two ways radio are used both by teams and by STAFF. Please, make sure
     not to use the same frequencies of the staff.

     Be on Time – The schedule is included in the Student Handbook and posted online. It’s your
     responsibility to be on time.

     Drivers Meetings – Attending drivers’ meetings is mandatory if you are planning to drive.
     Check the schedule for times.

     Be Careful – Don’t take any chances when working on your car - follow safe working
     practices.

     Bring your Documentation – When you come to tech inspection bring all the documen-
     tation and correspondence connected to your SEF submission, Impact Attenuator Data
     Report, FMEA and any Rules Questions you submitted. The inspectors do not have this
     material and you may need it to answer questions about your vehicles design and con-
     struction. The inspectors want you to pass tech and pass it easily, but they need your help
     to make it happen.

     Don’t Run – Running tells people there’s an emergency. Don’t run unless life or limb is in
     danger.

     Event Closing Times – Remember that Acceleration and Skid Pad close at exactly 13:00
     and Autocross closes at 18:30. Your car must have crossed the starting line by that time or
     you can’t run. We recommend you to get in line early.
