Supplementary Rules and Regulations:

  1. Competitor requirements:
    • All competitors must be a current member of an ASN Canada FIA recognized club or an SCCA recognized club. All competitors must have either a current TimeAttack license (or equivalent as required by their Territory) or a current Regional/National Road Race license. These will need to be shown on request at registration.
    • All competitors and pit crew must sign the insurance waiver and wear the provided wrist bands at all times.
    • All competitors not familiar with AMP must attend a driver orientation session before driving on the track surface. These orientation sessions will be available at Friday’s Test & Tune/Practice. Instructors will be present providing both trackside as well as in car orientation sessions.
    • All competitors are required to submit an ASN Canada FIA Self Tech Form for their vehicle when they register for the event. Their vehicle will then be subject to onsite scrutineering as well as random scrutineering during the event.
    • All competitors are responsible to properly class their own vehicle. A copy of the preparation (PIP) schedule and, if relevant, any option(s) taken (dyno plots and curb weight measurement detail, etc) must be provided at registration.
      • Below stock HP dyno plots will not be accepted.
    • All competitors are required to attend Drivers Meetings.
  2. On Track/Track Side info:
    • No passengers allowed during timed runs
    • Safe passing zones during practice/ instructional periods will be between turns 6 and 7 and turns 11 and 1. These will be marked with pylons. Passing is only allowed with hand signals given from driver of vehicle being overtaken. Overtaken vehicle will slow and let vehicle pass safely on the left.
    • Windows:
      • Non Passing sessions – driver and passenger door windows shall be completely up.
      • Passing Sessions – the windows must be 3/4 up, to allow for point by indications.
      • Passing and Non Passing Sessions – if the windows are down or do not exist , the use of window nets (minimum SFI 27.1 spec) and or arm restraints (minimum SFI 3.3 item 3.8 spec) by the driver (and passenger, if applicable) are required.
    • All sunroofs/ T tops must be installed and in their locked positions.

    • Red Flag – waved at all marshal stations and by the Starter only when instructed to do so by the Clerk of the Course it informs all Drivers to safely come to a complete stop and then slowly proceed to the next marshal station for further instruction. Drivers shall be prepared to stop at any time. A red flag is most commonly used in Time Attack if a vehicle has gone off track and is positioned where it endangers the safety of participants or if track conditions are no longer safe to drive on.
    • Yellow Flag -In sessions with passing: The Yellow flag informs drivers of an incident ahead and to proceed with caution with no passing. Drivers are to look as far ahead on the course as possible for a waving Green Flag. Once a driver passes a waving Green Flag, then they shall resume speed.
    • White Flag: In timed sessions with no passing, displayed at any marshal station including the Start/Finish post only when instructed to do so by the Clerk of the Course. It informs the Driver to slow down and make space from the vehicle ahead. The lap on which this flag is displayed will not be scored. Drivers are to proceed at a pace that creates safe space from the vehicle ahead, but does not slow the vehicle behind.
    • Blue Flag – Displayed at any Marshal station to alert the Driver that a faster following vehicle must be allowed to pass as soon as is safely possible. Failure to obey this flag may result in a black flag being displayed for that vehicle or the loss of competition lap times for holding up competitors and/or the event.
    • Black Flag – proceed to the pit lane, stop at the first pit stall as you enter pit lane and await instructions to be given to you by the clerk of the course.
    • Fueling is only permitted in the paddock area, not pit lane. All teams must have a fire extinguisher on hand during fueling.

    • Motorized vehicles- (ATV’s, motorcycles, etc.) Drivers of such vehicles must obey pit speed limit (15 kph) and drive prudently. Pit Lane and the track are off limits to all such vehicles unless permission is given by the clerk of the course.

  1. Timing and Scoring:
    • The start and finish lines are located directly adjacent to the starter’s bridge.
    • For Time Attack without Passing, the competitors may be divided into two or more run groups. Each competitor will have a total of 12 timed runs per day, 3 or 4 sessions on track each with 3 or 4 timed runs per session. Clerk of the course reserves the right to drop/alter sessions.
