I agree with Mark with 4 instructors you will be able to handle 15 - 20 students easy. I hate to see that we only have that few of students that have signed up for the school! I also hate that my brother's are having the party the same day because the local schools are a lot of fun to instruct.

Are there going to be loaner helmets available? I just figured out that my helmet is missing some padding (ear pieces) not to mention its a modular helmet which I'm not sure is legal anyway.

There isn't a smack talk thread about the Sunday event.

Check out the novice handbook, lots of good information:
http://www.etrscca.org/soloii/handbook/ ... .htm#bring

From the handbook:

You must have:

Your car (although you may share a car with someone else) Your entry fee A valid driver's license

You may want to bring:

Your SCCA membership card, to get a discount on entry fees
A safety helmet
Extra air in your tires. Stop at a gas station and fill your tires to approximately 45psi-Front/35psi-Rear for a front-wheel-drive car, or 40psi all around for a rear-wheel-drive car.
Suitable shoes for driving. The best are light-soled, with a narrow sole which does not stick out past the side of the shoe
Sunglasses
Sunscreen
Clothes appropriate for the weather forecast, plus a change for when the forecast is wrong.
Rain gear / umbrella
A hat
A folding chair
Thermos of water or other non alcoholic beverage
Cooler for lunch or snacks
Windex and paper towels
A pad and pencil to write down all the advice you'll get
A copy of the current SCCA Solo II Rule Book
A good tire pressure gauge
A portable air tank or compressor
Chalk or white shoe polish to mark the tires


Some of these things you won't need for a school, like the rule book, but you get the idea. Make sure you've got a way to mark numbers on the car too.
