Request a Signature:

These amateur events are open to all comers and will serve as grounds for newcomers to prove they have a proper understanding of the rules and reasonable car control. Registered Amateur drivers may request to have their race reviewed by the marshals by clicking on the Incident Report button at the top of the forum. If the driver followed all procedures, committed no serious infractions and did not benefit from any infractions or commit to many minor infractions, the marshal will grant the Amateur driver a Signature of approval. Please request a review only if you are likely to earn a signature. A driver must earn 2 signatures in a span of 3 races to advance to the Sportsman level. Please include the name of the event with your request.
