National Solo Tech Inspection and Check-In will occur at the Lincoln Driver's Center unless specified elsewhere in the event details. Look for the SCCA-branded canopies set up near the Region trailer.

TECH INSPECTION:

A Chief Technical Inspector (CTI) will be appointed as per the National Solo Rules, Section 5.6. The role of the CTI will be to oversee the process and if needed conduct additional inspections of vehicles.

A Self-Tech Inspection form will be available online before the event as well as on-site. The tech form can be found on this page in the section located on the right side of the page or below this dropdown if on mobile that also contains links to online registration, live timing, and worker descriptions. Simply download the form and print a copy to bring with you to the event – ONE FOR EACH DRIVER.

1. Each driver will complete the form by conducting a self-tech of their vehicle when parked in the paddock, warranting that their car is compliant with the SCCA Solo Rules. If there are two or more drivers using the vehicle, a completed form is needed for each driver.
2. While still in the paddock, the class designation and numbers will be placed on the vehicle. If the driver has them at this time, also place on the vehicle any SCCA-required decals and appropriate contingency decals. All SCCA-required decals and some contingency decals are available at Tech Inspection. (NOTE: Additional information about SCCA-required decals and their placement can be found in the “Vehicle Eligibility & Information” section)
3. When the above items are completed, the driver takes the vehicle, their helmet, and the completed Self-Tech Inspection form to Tech Inspection. Co-driver helmets and completed Tech forms can be brought to Tech Inspection at this time as well.
   • The driver gives their Self-Tech Inspection form to the CTI, or their designee, and shows them their helmet to verify that helmet requirements are met and issue necessary decals (Solo 2025 or barcode). The helmet will also be made available to a Check-In worker who will scan the barcode to ensure that we can get a valid scan. If a new helmet barcode is needed, one will be provided. (NOTE: If you have a helmet barcode that is not from National Solo, it must be covered or removed during the event. The scanning system only recognizes that there is a barcode, it does not differentiate between National Solo vs Regional or other programs.)
   • The car will receive a quick review for numbers and class letters, plus any obvious mechanical issues. Class letters and car numbers must comply with section 3.7 -Vehicle Identification- of the Solo Rules. A vehicle's tech may be denied if class lettering and/or car numbers do not comply.
   • Drivers will be asked if they need any SCCA or contingency decals AND if there are any changes to their event registration information (car, class, number, etc.).

If there are NO changes to the information that was used to register on MSR, they will be checked in for the event at Tech using the self-tech form and they can then return to the paddock.

If there ARE changes to the registration information that was used to register on MSR, they will KEEP their tech form and exit the Tech area with their vehicle. They must bring the tech form to the SCCA Timing Trailer at the designated time shown in the event schedule to complete any changes and be checked in for the event.

ON-SITE CHECK-IN:

Event supps will no longer be handed out when you check in but are available by request. Event Details (aka Supps) will be posted online on the Event page as well as on-site in the following areas: Tech/Impound/Lincoln Driver’s Center & on the Timing Trailer.

Schedules shown on the SCCA Online Event Page are the official schedules for the event.

Work assignments will also be posted on the Event Page. A report showing the class listing will be created and it contains information about competitors’ registrations, including work assignments. Information will be available when you tech if you ask.

If you have NO CHANGES to your registration, you can proceed through tech, turn in your tech form and you will be checked in for the event.

If you HAVE CHANGES to your registration, you can proceed through tech, but you will need to KEEP your tech form and make your way to the SCCA Timing Trailer at the designated time for registration changes (see the event schedule for times). You will be checked-in for the event at that time.

Once check-in is closed for the event, a finalized worker sheet will be posted online to the Event Page (approx 8:15am). Please check there to verify that your work assignment has not changed due to class changes, cancellations, etc. Any work assignments that have changed will be highlighted in light grey.

PENALTIES FOR INCORRECT NUMBERS OR BARCODES:

1. Tech will confirm vehicle identification (Solo Rule 3.7) and helmet barcodes are compliant. The vehicle will not pass tech if not compliant.
2. Competitors at the start line with the wrong number on their car, 2 sets of numbers, or the incorrect class showing will receive a warning for the first offense, a cone penalty for the second offense, and may receive a DSQ for three or more offenses at the same event.
3. Competitors at the scanner with more than one (1) or an incorrect barcode showing on the helmet will receive a warning for the first offense, a cone penalty for the second offense and may receive a DSQ for three or more offenses at the same event.
4. National Tour & Street Car Shootout: A driver at the scanner or the start line without the appropriate helmet decal (Solo 2025) will be directed away from the start and lose the run.
5. ProSolo: A driver at the scanner or the start line without the appropriate helmet decal (Solo 2025) will be directed to exit the stage lane. Go directly to the Tech/Impound area to get the helmet inspected and decal applied.
