DRIVE HOME SAFELY!
TECH INSPECTION:
Tech inspection is primarily for safety. It is also a time when all competitors can examine another competitor’s vehicle. If you feel there may be a rule infraction you must put it in writing and give it to a VORRA official. Official protest forms are available from the VORRA Officials. VORRA reserves the right to inspect any vehicle at any time for violations.
RULES:
It is essential that all persons participating in any event as a competitor, pit crew, official or course worker, as well as observers and specta-tors, realize that motor racing is a sport that is considered to be dangerous. Our rules are as stringent as possible to minimize that danger.
SPECTATORS, PIT CREWS, PARTICIPANTS, AND WORKERS ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE RISK INVOLVED.
SPECTATOR RULES
Spectators must travel on established or designated routes to transit to start and approved viewing areas. Spectators are prohibited from entering designated pit or course areas, as well as from traveling on the race course at any time during an event.
Spectators shall be directed to park on one side of the road to allow for an open travel lane in case of emergencies. Avoid parking vehicles on brush or grass.
Spectators are required to maintain a minimum of 150 feet from the race course unless allowed in a designated spectator area determined to be safe from race vehicles.
Motorcycle and OHV free-play are prohibited in conjunction with and throughout the conduct of the event.
BLM STIPULATIONS:
ALL TEAMS: Bring absorbant rugs, mats, tarps, etc. to be used for fluid containment in pit areas and during times that spills are likely to occur. An absorbent clean-up kit will also be required, and can be as basic as a shovel and heavy duty trash bags capable of containing soil affected by a small spill. Spills greater than 1 quart MUST be reported to Race Officials or a BLM Representative. Your efforts in this regard are much appreciated, and will help assure a lasting presence of off road racing on public lands.
CAMPING & LODGING INFORMATION
Dry camping is available at the Start / Finish area. Please keep all vehicles and items clear of all roadways, and respect the needs of your fellow racers in regard to space.
