    5. The FM tire rule sections 9.1.1.F.14.A through 9.1.1.F.14.D are not in effect for this event, and are replaced by the following: A competitor shall start the race on tires used in a qualifying session for the race as identified by markings made on the tires by a race official. It is the responsibility of the competitor to ensure that his or her tires are appropriately marked prior to (e.g. on the false grid), during, or immediately after (e.g. as the car leaves the track) a qualifying session. A competitor shall start the race on any marked tires from any qualifying session for the race. If a competitor chooses to start the race on any tires that were not used in a qualifying session for the race and not appropriately marked, the competitor shall forfeit his or her grid position and start from the back of the grid. This forfeiture of grid position shall not apply if all qualifying sessions for the race were run under rain or wet conditions. A complete set of four (4) rain or wet track tires may be used at the competitor’s discretion for any race. Rain tires may be in new or used condition and require no special marking if used as a complete set of four.
    6. All cars needing to go to impound should exit pit lane at thecenter-pit opening (first opening past start/ finish), go across to the second paddock road, and turn left to head to impound. If you should miss the opening, or your pit stall is after this opening, continue to the pit-out exit into the paddock, return north on the paddock road along the cyclone fence, and then join the cut across road. Please observe directions of pit and tech officials. Cars needing to go to Winners Circle shall follow the directions of the pit marshals.
    7. Drivers may be held responsible for damages to property, including track and environmental damage.
    8. If the fastest qualifier in a race group chooses to start from the “outside pole position” (per GCR), this decision must be conveyed to the Grid Marshal at the front of the field before the 5 minute signal is given for that race group.
    9. There will be mandatory driver’s meetings at the Road America Center. See schedule for times.
    10. Attached are the Road America track rules. They are considered part of these supplementary regulations, and are enforceable as such. Special June Sprints amendments to these rules:
      1. On track hours will be per schedule and/or adjusted as needed for race operations
      2. No race engines may be run past 15 minutes after the last checkered flag of each day or the time published in the track rules, whichever is later. Cars that are released from impound or SOMs after that point may restart their engine, and drive directly to their paddock (unless otherwise directed), and shut off their engine for the day.
        3. All competitors must vacate the premises by 7:00PM Sunday. If you are involved in a tech or SOM action that will require you to stay past that point, unless otherwise directed, you must move your tow vehicle to the main, competition, or west paddock prior to 7PM. Check with the Chief of Tech (if a tech action) or the Chairman SOM (if a SOM action) prior to moving your tow vehicle.
