**OFFICIAL THREAD** - Pellissippi 9/14

Post by MARKP »

Since JY is on the road to Lincoln, I'm giving him a hand and posting this thread. He will be your event chief for this event.

Registration is open. Here is the link: http://msreg.com/ETR82014 It isn't required but please feel free to go ahead and pay online. If you do pay online, please keep in mind, you still have to check in at the registration trailer and your car must be presented for tech inspection.

This is a single-day points event. We are more than half way through the season so be sure to show up and drive well! :fight:

The site opens at 7am on Sunday and we should have the course set up by 8:30 on Sunday.

Sound Policy

This sound policy will be strictly enforced for this event. No exceptions can be made to this policy for this event.

This sound policy is in place to protect our access to event sites. Loud cars aren’t usually appreciated by the general public. The competitor shall carry sole responsibility for ensuring their vehicle complies with these Sound Control Standards and Procedures. Vehicle sound emission is not a constant factor that can be trimmed to barely legal (in the manner of engine displacement or vehicle weight.) Sound emissions may vary significantly from morning to afternoon, and day to day, so the competitor is advised to target any vehicle sound emission level “adjustments” to well under the limit, to allow for variations in conditions. The intent of the following rules is to truly make our events quieter by limiting the sound level produced by individual vehicles. Competitors are expected to use mufflers as the primary method for sound reduction.

STANDARD and MEASUREMENT

--Maximum limit of 96 dB, with the meter set to “A” weighting, “Slow” Response.
--The microphone will be mounted on a tripod, 3-4 feet above ground level at the measuring point 50 ft from the edge of the course lane, using a coned gate as a reference.
--The microphone will be positioned perpendicular to the vehicle’s direction of travel.
--Measurement will be taken at a point on course where the car can reasonably be expected to be at full throttle, under load, and at high RPM.
--Sound control operator will record readings over 90dBA and may at the operators discretion record or check off those under 90dBA for reference later.

Chiefs: please post up and let us know if you will be attending or who will be handling the duties if you won't be there.

New information, but in the past it was a requirement. We just never had enough stickers until now.

Only if they care about points. It's not required to run.

...and just to be completely transparent, the idea is that sticker sales @ $5 a set helps pay for year end trophies, which are quite expensive.
