2025 Updated On-Site Tech & Check-In Procedures
National Solo Check-In and Tech form turn in will occur at the Tech area unless specified elsewhere in the event details. Look for the SCCA-branded canopies.
ON-SITE CHECK-IN/TECH:
- On-site Check In/Tech Procedure:
- 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 TECH FORM IS NEEDED FOR EACH DRIVER.
- Each driver will complete the form by conducting a self-tech of their vehicle when parked in the paddock, warranting that everything is (including helmet, vehicle (including car numbers and class letters), etc.) compliant with the SCCA Solo Rules. If there are two or more drivers using the vehicle, a completed form is needed for each driver.
- When the tech form is complete, the driver takes their helmet, and the completed Self-Tech Inspection form to Check-in/Tech area. (Look for the SCCA branded canopies).
- The driver gives their Self-Tech Inspection form to the CTI, or their designate. They will also present their helmet to verify that it is compliant (check here to ensure your helmet is compliant); the CTI or their designee will issue necessary decals (Solo 2025). 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 CTI or their designate will issue a tech decal and hand it to the driver.
- Prior to presenting the vehicle to grid, it will be the responsibility of the driver to affix the tech decal to the windshield (in either the upper or lower left-hand corner on vehicles with regular windshields; it can be affixed, where approved, on vehicles with no or modified windshields).
- Vehicles with 2 drivers in the same class will also be given a “2” decal to affix next to the tech decal. This will alert both grid and impound that the vehicle has 2 drivers.
- Prior to presenting the vehicle to grid, it will be the responsibility of the driver to affix the tech decal to the windshield (in either the upper or lower left-hand corner on vehicles with regular windshields; it can be affixed, where approved, on vehicles with no or modified windshields).
- 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. Check-in/Tech will keep the Self-tech form.
- If there AREchanges to the registration information that was used to register on MSR, competitors do NOT have to wait in the line at Check-in/Tech. They will KEEP their tech form and bring the form and their helmet to the SCCA Timing Trailer at the designated time shown in the event schedule to complete any changes, get any required decals and be checked in for the event.
- When the tech form is complete, the driver takes their helmet, and the completed Self-Tech Inspection form to Check-in/Tech area. (Look for the SCCA branded canopies).
- Prior to presenting the car to grid, the class designation and numbers should be placed on the vehicle. In addition, any SCCA-required decals and appropriate contingency decals should be placed on the vehicle. All SCCA-required decals and some contingency decals are available at Tech. See below for details regarding placement of required decals.

- The scales will be set up and made available, per the event schedule.
PENALTIES FOR MISSING DECALS, INCORRECT NUMBERS OR BARCODES:
- It is the sole responsibility of the competitor to ensure vehicle identification is compliant with Solo Rule 3.7, that helmet has been teched and has a Solo 2025 Tech decal, that the barcode is compliant and that any non SCCA National issued bar codes are completely covered (including covering non-driver barcodes if a helmet is being shared).
- Penalties may be assessed if class letters/numbers are not compliant, if helmet tech decal is not affixed and/or if helmet barcode is not compliant.
- Unused class letters or car numbers should be completely covered or removed from the vehicle so that times or penalties are not issued to the incorrect driver by Timing and Scoring or by Course Workers.
- Competitors at the start line with non-compliant car numbers or class letters will be allowed to complete the heat they are running. An event official (Chief Steward or Event Lead) will inform them of the non-compliance and let them know the deadline for remediation. If remedial action is not taken by the deadline, a penalty may be assessed; penalties include the addition of cones or a DSQ (See On-site Check In/Tech Procedure “C.” above for vehicle decal placement information).
- Competitors at the start line with the wrong number on their car, 2 sets of numbers, or the incorrect/too many classes 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.
- 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.
- A driver presenting to grid without the appropriate Event Tech decal or helmet tech decal (Solo 2025) will be directed to the Tech/Impound area to complete a new tech form to receive an event tech decal or get their helmet inspected and decal applied.
