FRIDAY NIGHT OPTIONS ~

FRIDAY NIGHT REG and TECH ~ Reduce the wait to get in on Saturday morning.
Come by the Host hotel (Days Inn) and sign the track waiver and get your tech early. As we all know, getting into Putnam Park is a unique experience as compared to all our other events. Because we are not permitted (Local ordinance) to have 24 hour access/camping, we have arranged for pre-event sign-in at the Days Inn in Cloverdale (Different hotel than last year). Stop by and see Lynda from 7:30-9PM and sign the track waiver and get your wrist band. If possible, bring your car or Race Car Log book and we’ll provide your tech during the same hours. (We cannot do this at the track – NO services will be available at the track until Saturday morning)


FRIDAY NIGHT TRAILER DROP/PARKING NOW AVAILABLE -
Go to Event Registration and choose “Parking 10'x40’” (Size does not matter) to get in. You will be sent a personalized Parking Pass via e-mail once registration has closed to access the track between 5 and 7PM on Friday May 16th. This pass allows for one car or trailer to be left on grounds overnight Friday night. NASA Does Not have access to the track until 5PM and must be out by 7PM. If you are running on Friday, you will be required to have the Parking Pass to leave any trailer/equipment./car etc. overnight.
