ON-TRACK RULES
1. The first and most important rule for any lapping session, is to remember that we are all out here to have fun.  The best trophy to go home with is your car.  If you are driving erratically, competitively, “drifting or unnecessarily sliding(except drift groups)”, or in violation of the Member Rules and Regulations, you may be ejected from the track and Facilities with no refund.
2. Track will not provide any official lap times during lapping sessions.  Only SWSF and its staff can provide timing.  
3. There shall be no contact between vehicles at any time.  This a no contact event.  
4. Do not stop on track! If disabled, do your best to position your vehicle off the track, and if that isn’t possible, then off of the preferred driving/racing line, away from oncoming traffic.
5. Do not tailgate or bump draft another vehicle.
6. Do not group together and run in a pack while on track.
7. Do not block faster vehicles that are closing on or have caught you (non w2w groups).
8. You must be aware of your surroundings at all times so pay attention, watch your mirrors if applicable and signal faster vehicles to go by and pass you.
9. If you suspect serious mechanical problems while on the track, pull your vehicle off the track slowly and await assistance. If you can continue, do so slowly and return to the pit area. Pull off the driving/racing line and use hand signals and flashers to indicate that you have a problem while returning to the pits. If you suspect you are leaking fluids, immediately vacate the track surface (to avoid a lengthy clean-up process and potential fee for it).
10. If it starts to rain, slow down to a speed below that at which you know you can drive safely in the wet and well within your limits. The sessions will continue in the rain unless the track becomes unsafe to continue.
11. If you spin, run off track, or make contact with another car, you must report to the Grid Marshall immediately, prior to continuing the session.
12. If you have a mechanical failure such as engine problems, oil/transmission/fuel leaks, etc. you are required to pull off the track surface in a safe area at the earliest opportunity.
13. If you go off track and are unable to come back onto the track, you are to remain with your
vehicle. If your vehicle is a car, ALWAYS STAY IN THE CAR WITH YOUR SAFETY BELTS
SECURED. If your vehicle is a motorcycle, ALWAYS STAY WITH YOUR MOTORCYCLE
until assistance arrives. If you are on a motorcycle and are in an “Impact Zone”, then leave your motorcycle and proceed to the closest barriers that don’t require you to cross the track. The only exception to this rule would be a vehicle that is on fire (then quickly and safely exit the car or abandon the motorcycle and move to a safe location).
14. Staging. Staging for the next run group to go on the track will be at the designated staging area.
15. Entering the Track. WRISTBANDS MUST BE DISPLAYED AT ALL TIMES. TRACK
PARTICIPANTS WILL BE REQUIRED TO SHOW WRISTBANDS PRIOR TO EACH ON
TRACK SESSION. Never enter the track area until permission is granted by the Grid Marshall.
The Grid Marshall will find an open spot on the track to allow you to enter safely. If no Grid
Marshall is present, you SHALL NOT enter the track under any circumstance (if the gates are closed, you CANNOT enter the track). They are likely dealing with an on-track emergency.
Each time you enter the track you will start with a “warm up” lap(s). This will allow time to get comfortable with the current track condition, motorcycle or car, and allow the Driver/Rider to build up tire temperature/pressure. Pull your vehicle up to the Grid Marshall at “Pit Out”. Follow the instructions of the Grid Marshall and stay to the right side of the track (when going Counter Clockwise direction) as you accelerate up to speed. Use your mirrors or look over your shoulder (if on a motorcycle) to see if you are being overtaken before you attempt to blend into the proper line. Stay to the Left side of the track (when going Clockwise direction) as you accelerate up to
speed. Use your mirrors or look over your shoulder (if on a motorcycle) to see if you are being overtaken before you attempt to blend into the proper line.
16. Exiting the Track. Track exit during a session is on Driver’s right (counterclockwise track
direction) and Driver’s left (clockwise track direction) to the hot pit. When you want to exit from the track into the pit lane, extend your left arm or leg outward (for motorcycles), out of the window, in a fist, or if the window can’t be rolled down, four-way flashers, prior to your exit from the track. Track exit after a session is after turn 15. Keep right (when going Counter Clockwise) and extend your left arm upward, out of the window, in a fist, prior to your exit from the track.
Keep Left (when going Clockwise) and extend your right arm upward, out of the window, in a fist prior to your exit from the track. Motorcycle riders shall extend either an arm or leg prior to turn 15 to alert other riders of your exiting the track. Once you have signaled you are exiting the track, you are REQUIRED to exit the track.
17. Reentering the Track. After returning to the paddock, Drivers must receive acknowledgement and approval from a Grid Marshall prior to reentering the track.
18. Standard Flags:
❖ GREEN: Displayed at the start of the driving session. This signals a clear track for
driving activities to take place on.
❖ YELLOW: Signals a caution, which indicates that Drivers should slow down to a
significantly reduced speed. Debris on the track or a stopped vehicle are typically the
chief culprits for this flag.
❖ RED: Signifies the session must be stopped immediately, regardless of the cars’ position
on the track. This is usually for safety reasons and must be adhered to without fault.
❖ BLACK DISPLAYED STATIC: Think of the black flag as the “consultation flag.”
Whichever Driver is given the black flag must return to pit road immediately for
counseling and advisement by PC staff. Common examples include dropping debris on
the track, dangerous or reckless driving, repeated off-course excursions, spinning out, or
generally not adhering to the rules and regulations of the driving activity you are taking
part in.
❖ BLACK WAVING: The vehicle that was issued the waiving flag has an issue that needs
to be addressed immediately, so the driver/rider shall exit the track surface as quickly as
they safely can, and wait for Podium Club Safety team to advise further before moving
again.
❖ CHECKERED: This indicates that the session has concluded.
19. Electronic Flags:
❖ GREEN: Displayed during the driving session. Indicates that the session is active for this
session.
❖ YELLOW: Indicates there is an incident or vehicle off track that the participant should be
aware of. This means that you should be cautious and slow down, from the area of the
Yellow flag until you have passed the reason for the Yellow.
❖ FLASHING YELLOW: Indicates that there is a vehicle or issue ON the track and the
driver/rider should slow down until they have passed the incident in question.
❖ RED: Signifies the session is stopped immediately, and all vehicles are to return to the
paddock as quickly as they safely can. This is for safety reasons and SHALL be adhered
to without fail.
❖ FLASHING RED: Signifies there is a serious incident on track and all vehicle will come
to a complete stop as quickly as they safely can ON track. This is because the track safety
team needs to respond immediately to a serious incident on track.
❖ CHECKERED: This indicates that the session is complete and will be displayed at
various points around the track. When the driver/rider has received this flag at start/finish,
it means you will finish the current lap and proceed into the paddock (most commonly
referred to as a “Cool Down Lap”).

PASSING RULES (Non Competition)
1. Passing is permitted as follows:
a. Cars in designated areas with a point-by from the Driver. All Drivers are required to
monitor their mirrors and as faster vehicles approach, they are to stay on the racing line
and clearly point the passing vehicle by. The Driver doing the passing is responsible for
making a safe pass.
b. Motorcycle passes must be well prepared and safe, to be completed before corner entry. It is the Rider who is in front that has the right of way. The Rider doing the passing is
responsible for making a safe pass.
2. Passes are to be made on the straights only and must be made off line.
3. There shall be no passing during red, yellow, and/or black flag conditions.
4. Do not move off line when being passed, stay on the preferred racing line.
5. Passing Drivers must ensure they have plenty of time, space, and momentum to complete the maneuver.
6. Slower vehicles being passed: Once you have signaled a pass, do not accelerate and drag race the overtaking vehicle. Allow them to pass safely by easing off the throttle and giving them room to complete the pass. Help each other.
7. It is the responsibility of the passing vehicle to make a safe and clean pass and the pass must be completed prior to the entry of the approaching corner.
8. Passing is not allowed in any corners and any unsafe passing attempts will result in potentially being barred from on-track sessions for the remainder of the day.
