PARKING/PADDOCK/FACILITIES •Parking is first-come first-served unless reserved parking is specifically mentioned by Lemons or offered by the track. •Every team entry (ie, one racecar) gets a single 20×40′ space in the main paddock. Anything that doesn’t fit in that box (big rigs, large RVs, extra cars) must park in the spectator/overflow parking area shown on the Paddock Map. •Race control is off-limits to participants and spectators. PARTICIPANT ARRIVAL / CHECK-IN / TECH •All participants must be pre-registered. •Check the Paddock Map to see where stuff’s located. •Check the Event Schedule to know when stuff happens. •GO TO DRIVER-GEAR TECH (near HQ or Tech) ANYTIME during Tech hours. (PUT ON AND WEAR your full safety gear, including the head/neck restraint–don’t make us dig through some sweaty-ass gear bag) •GO TO DRIVERS-LICENSE CHECK (at HQ) ANYTIME during Tech hours. Show your valid, current, unrestricted street license to receive the required Lemons Driver wristband. (Legit hard cards only–insurance requires us not to accept photos or copies.) •GO TO CAR TECH AT YOUR ASSIGNED TECH TIME. Bring your car and COMPLETED tech sheet; assigned Tech times are linked from the Event Schedule one week before the event. FUELING •Fueling only in hot pits (or track’s permanent pumps where provided). •No fueling in paddock during the race. •Everyone in fueling area must be in full safety gear. •Registered drivers & crew only in fueling area–no spectators. •No staging: Bring your supplies, fuel up, then take everything away again. •No assigned or saved hot-pit spots. •Don’t park support vehicles near the fuel area. •Kill switch off; no one in car; drip pan; dedicated extinguisher person are all mandatory while fueling. •Only fueling, driver change, windshield cleaning, and cool-suit ice changes allowed in the hot pit. For everything else (tire pressure, fluid checks, engine swaps) go to the paddock. •If using track pumps, no one can be in the car and kill switch must be off. •If using track pumps, full gear recommended but not required. •Using the track pumps means using the track pumps–your own fuel or jugs aren’t allowed there.
