Motorized Vehicle Policy (Camping & Pit Area)

Failure to follow this policy may result in racer disqualification or being asked to leave the premises.

No one under the age of 18 may operate any motorized vehicle inside the venue except their race vehicle, and only under these conditions:

• Race vehicle from camp to registration and back.
• Race vehicle from camp to tech inspection and back.
• Race vehicle from camp to the starting line and back.
• Race vehicle from camp to camp to receive assistance with repairs.

Under no circumstances will a person under 18 operate any other motorized vehicle, including golf carts. The only exception is a street-legal passenger vehicle operated by a licensed driver age 16 or older — not including golf carts — entering or exiting the venue.

Helmets are required at all times for anyone under 18 operating their race vehicle or riding as a passenger in any golf cart, UTV, motorcycle, quad, pit bike, or OHV. This includes going to and from tech inspection. A penalty or disqualification will apply if caught without a helmet.

If a non-racer in your camp breaks these rules, the racer in that camp will be assessed the penalty.

Non-motorized vehicles (bicycles, skateboards, etc.) must follow all applicable state, county, and city safety laws — including helmet requirements.

Other Rules

• No play riding. Anyone caught riding in the pits or camping area will be disqualified — no refunds.
• Helmets must be worn at all times.
• Campfires must be in metal containers only.
