Grand Prix Kampenhout  2 - 3 - 4  July 2010

Race duration is 5 minutes. As always every driver will race 4 qualifying rounds and 3 finals; be ready in time for racing, technical inspection and marshalling.

This is the routine: pick up your handout transponder (if you need one) during the previous run (pass behind the rostrum!). After your heat do not forget to shut off your transmitter and bring it to technical inspection together with your car and the handout transponder, then proceed directly to your marshalling position. After marshalling you can collect car + transmitter.

Failing to marshal = loss of best result of the day.

Marshals have to wear the fluo vests and solid footwear.

Don’t drive in the opposite direction.

No drivers or mechanics on track before the race over call.

If your car breaks down during a heat, stay on the rostrum until “race over”, bring your car, transmitter and transponder to technical inspection and go to your marshalling position before repairing your car.

Parking and pitting:

There are tents for pitting right next to the track. Some drivers prefer pitting in the camping area which is also very close to the track. We have about 50 tables and chairs available for the drivers who can’t bring their own.

The parking area near the track will be used as pits, so park your car further down in the park to the right side of the outer road. Do remember to keep this outer road free for safety regulations. Do not park your car in the playground area, visitors preferably park outside the premises.

Important: on Sunday between 14h and 18h the entry/exit of the Park will be blocked due to ongoing activities!
