As you participate in a high-performance driving event, your car will be subjected to higher-than-normal stresses and heat for extended periods. It is important for your safety, and the safety of the other drivers, that your inspection is thorough and careful. Inspect your vehicle with this in mind. It is your responsibility to ensure your car is ready for the track.
