Since you are so local, I think I can add a few details here. We host a run for all Time trial participants at the end of each HPDE day. There is a small additional fee ($25) to participate and you do need to qualify. Our timing and scoring is handled by the lastest AMB system with transponders. We offer transponders for those who do not have them yet, but I suggest that if you have ANY interest in this go ahead and buy one for your self.
The time trial is open to drivers that have had at least two HPDE events and have been signed off to solo for at least one session at each event. All time trial cars are required to have a properly installed SCCA Time Trial spec 4-point roll bar with proper SFI high-density padding, 5 or 6 point harness (no older than 5-yr from date of manufacture), Snell SA2000 or better helmet (no M-rated helmets), a mounted fire extinguisher, and an AMB compatible transponder. HPDE participants are not required to have this level of equipment, but we do require a roll bar for all convertibles.
A run group will consist of a single 15-minute session, ideally including a full 10 minutes of hot lap We will make every effort to ensure time for at least four hot laps (three hot laps is the minimum number to be officially scored.) The best lap time will be scored for finishing position. In the case of a tie, the best lap time will be scored. Run group size may consist of 8 to15 vehicles (except for provisional groups) depending on the size of the track and speed deferential of the run group. Two-day events considered two separate time trials. If one day of the time trial should be cancelled, the second day be counted as double points.
We have substantial safety rules to keep you and your car safe. We cover passing, off track excursions, and corner worker/flag safety. The Time Trial Series is not wheel to wheel racing and is a non-contact sport. It is a timed event with scoring. Trophies are awarded each day. Championship year end points will be awarded per THSCC
calculator on
www.timetrials.net. Additional trophies may be awarded at the discretion
chairman. Championship class trophies are awarded at the annual banquet.
The point system works like this:
