FRIDAY START/MEXICO REC. STAGE

ACTUAL start times will already be recorded on your timecards (which you will receive at Parc Expose) and will be 30 seconds (0.50 min.) apart. These times will be recorded in the IDEAL TIME block on the cards; for this stage only, this time will constitute your Actual Start Time, unless a new one is recorded at the Stage Start.

Competitors should be ready to start, with the first car at 3:20PM! [30 second intervals means that you must be prepared beforehand as your start time arrives very quickly.]

At the completion of the stage, you will be timed at the FF; your finish time will be recorded as normal on your timecards. You will then proceed back past the start of the stage and to the Service area in the Recreational area via a small and narrow trail. Check-in time at the Regrouping Control will be according to NPRR (i.e., you must arrive on your minute). This area will become congested so be prepared to walk to the control (NPRR).

SATURDAY MORNING RESTART

An MTC OUT control will be located here, with the first car restarting (based on Friday night's stage scores plus any repositioning by the Steward) at 9:00 AM. Timecards will be handed out at this control.

RESTART TIMES WILL BE POSTED AT BOTH THE PAVILION AND SUNDAY RIVER GRAND SUMMIT AT 11 PM FRIDAY NIGHT.
