I've never run an ER event. 4 runs only? What time will it end? Can I take my daughter as a passenger?

O. For the purpose of driver development, passengers will be allowed during competition runs. Passengers may ride with
whomever they want, as many times as they want, at the discretion of the driver. But they must not delay the event.
Any non-competitor over the age of 18 can be a passenger and must comply with Article 3, Section C. This rule can
be waived at the discretion of the Board of Directors at any time, if deemed necessary.
C. Anyone under 18 years of age must be accompanied by the form required by the club's insurance carrier for each
event. This document must be presented personally to registration by the parent or guardian signing the form. In
addition, the entrant must be sponsored by an Equipe Rapide member, who shall present the minor at registration.

Four normal runs, plus two PAX runs (if you pay the additional $10). Top PAX drivers are awarded with money. I suggest them, if only for the seat time.
The ending time can be as early as 2 PM and as late at 5 PM.
I plan to be there. Driving a German Z car now, first time with it on the star specs.
Is it register on site?
Yep.
Is there any entry cap? I have only run 1 ER event before.
Nope.
We are eager and excited to be hosting the Equipe Rapide Challenge Cup #4 this Sunday at Pennington Field. It has been a long month and a half off for the club and we are going to make up for it with two events in July.
The Event on Sunday should prove to be an interesting time for drivers and spectators alike. The annual FSAE challenge is taking place at UTA on Saturday which is hosted by Equipe Rapide and then most of the FSAE teams will be in attendance at the ER CC#4 on Sunday. I love it when the FSAE cars come out. They have some of the highest levels of engineering in motorsports and the cars are fun to look at, watch, and listen to. The event master and course designer is going to be national champion Gary Kramer.
Equipe Rapide has a Novice Chief position which is staffed by David Whitener. He will be conducting a novice walk through on the course and giving tips on how to follow the course and set up for the corners. He is also in charge of arranging ride alongs. Equipe Rapide allows anyone qualifued to be a competitor to ride as many times with someone else as they like. So a novice can arrange through David to ride along with a more experienced competitor or the novice can arrange to have someone ride with them.
We do have rules for minors which are posted on our website www.autocross.com/er .
I hope to see you all out there on Sunday. I will be driving a Mustang in CP class and rumors are that national champion Kurt Janish will be in attendance with his CP Firebird to kick my butt.

My car exceeds my driving ability. That's the only possible explanation.
I'm out. Have the 4 year old as the wife is on a sorority reunion trip.
Damn sorority girls! So high maintenance.

Hmm, I might be out, too. Where is this occurring? I might have to deliver a pizza.
Stillwater, Oklahoma. You likely won't enjoy the trip.
How did the event go ? I would have like to have gone and watched or entered my Na for my first auto-x , But my Na and job had different plans for me.
How about some pics ?
Kind of short course, but a fun day.
It was hot but fun. Lots of the cars from UTA were running which probably made it longer than usual. I really enjoyed my work assignment for heat 3 as announcer, don't know if I was any good but I would definately do it again in the nice A/C.
