NOTE: Sound restrictions for your bikes and anything with a motor
This is a STRICT 105 DB event. Three (3) strikes and your vehicle is out for the entire event weekend. That means strikes accrue. There is no re-set each day. This sound check is administered by WeatherTech Raceway - Laguna Seca.
There will be sound checks during Friday practice administered by WeatherTech Raceway, allowing three (3) attempts to pass the sound requirement. Saturday’s practice will allow for one (1) or possibly two (2) attempts. * Noncompliant motorcycles or side cars will not be allowed to race for the balance of the event.
You must practice with each vehicle you plan to use and pass the sound check, in order to race; otherwise, your machine will not be allowed on the grid. A machine in violation during the race may cause a stoppage of the entire race. If you are the cause, at the discretion of the RR Director and/or the Referee you may be ejected from the event and face potential added penalties if found in violation of the policies ( i.e.. if you did not practice and snuck out there anyway, or you made a change that affected sound levels after being found in compliance.)
Friday Practice Day is Mandatory: $210
To race the weekend, you must participate in Friday Practice.

Racer/Crew/Sponsors and Staff Entry Gate Directions: Use the MAIN GATE entrance at 1021 Monterey Salinas Highway, Salinas, CA 93908 which is located on Hwy 68. We will NOT be using South Boundary Road. To avoid paying the park entrance fee, use the passcode GINGERBREAD COOKIE. On Thursday, road racers, crew, sponsors and staff will proceed directly to the Ticket Office on South Perimeter Road just BEFORE entering the road race paddock to purchase or pick up your wristbands. On Friday, wristbands will be at the same location in the morning. The AHRMA canopy will move closer to the paddock gate once the majority of racers have checked in and remain at paddock gate entrance for Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday.

Garages
There are a limited number of garages approximately 15’x30’ with power and two (2) roll up doors, available to move in after 6:30 pm Thursday and out by 7:00 pm Sunday. Rent is $750 for the duration. Parking in the paddock directly across from the garages is reserved for the garage renters only. Your parking area is restricted to the width of your garage, so be nice to your neighbor. Don’t steal his/her space – if there are too many of your cars/trucks etc. to fit, then park a few vehicles at the designated parking only area and walk or ride with your buddy. Garages can be reserved online in MSR when you register to race.
