Every car that runs in an SCCA event must first pass a technical inspection:

Tech closes at 9:00a - there will be a $5 charge to tech after that time.

• Tires - no cords showing or other damage such as bulges, nails, etc.
• Wheel bearings, shocks, steering, seat belts and suspension in good operating condition
• Brakes - firm pedal with no detectable drop with car not running and proper level of fluid in reservoir
• All loose items removed (radar detectors, floor mats, etc.)
• Hubcaps and wheel rings removed
• All lugs present and tight
• Throttle return action safe and positive
• No excessive fluid leaks
• Battery securely fastened

SCCA events are a full day affair. To get in more runs each event, we usually do not include a lunch break in the schedule. Therefore, be prepared to eat on the run. Tennessee summers are very hot and shade is limited, so please stay hydrated and protected from the sun. The following essentials will help get you through:

• If you're under the age of 18, you'll need to bring your parents
• A valid driver's license
• Military and student discounts require ID
• Cash and checks accepted for on-site entry fee (credit/debit cards accepted for online registration only)
• Lots of fluids, ideally in a cooler, and lunch
• Sunscreen, SPF 30+ (you will spend 8+hrs exposed)

• Helmet: The TRSCCA is happy to loan helmets, but due to the limited quantity we encourage our regulars to purchase their own. A current Snell rating is required by the SCCA: here are the current (2021) certifications. Full-face or open-face style is up to you.
• Numbers and class: All cars need numbers and letters to designate their competition group. The SCCA has specific minimum size/location guidelines for these, as noted in Section 3.7 of the official rule book. We'll be happy to help you classify your car and pick your number. Reusable magnetic or vinyl decals are the best option, but blue painter's tape works as well.
