Hethel regs – I’m sure that you’ve read them but….

……..just in case you missed some, here are the ones that might catch you out:

You will have two car passes which must be displayed in the windscreen of your tow car and a support car. No passes can be issued at the entrance gate. Please do not tell friends or club members to ‘just turn up’ as they will be denied access.

One of the main conditions of the “Use of Venue” is that no unauthorised Cameras or Camcorders [or other image producing equipment, including mobile phones] are to be used by anybody at this Research & Development establishment. This includes any members of your family or friends etc who may be accompanying you to the event. Group Lotus Security Officers will confiscate any such items if they are seen at the venue even if they are not in use at the time. We are very fortunate to be allowed to use this venue and we appreciate your co-operation in this matter.

When each vehicle is in position to start the driver will be directed to watch the lights When the light changes from red to green the driver has a maximum 5 seconds to leave the start line. After this 5 second interval a red flag will denote a void run and no re-run will be given. Any driver who ignores the red flag and commences the run may be excluded from the event.

Only competition cars and trailers are allowed in the paddock so all support cars must be parked in the car park next to the security building.

Richard Price please note the next one 

 Competitors will be penalised by 5 seconds for each course cone struck. In the event of a competing car failing to keep all four wheels on the designated course a penalty of ‘4 wheels off’ [4WO] will be imposed and no time will be given for that run.

There are no designated tyre warming areas so there is to be no warming up or practice starting anywhere.

There is a slight typo in this post. It should start by saying "No passes can be issued at the entrance gate".

You should all have received car passes that you can print out. Make sure that you bring them with you.

Paul,

Yes, I'd seen that, but I think you must be confusing me with someone else?
