Open Practice Rules:
Each racer must marshal following each practice session, DO NOT exit the stand and get back in line. Racers are not allowed to hold someone's place or have a stand in. In the effort of fairness, anyone holding radios for another racer or returns to the practice line without marshaling will FORFEIT the remainder of practice. Holding 2 radios or someone standing in line for a racer will penalize BOTH racers.
There will be a RaceTime official to monitor this in staging/drivers stand entrance.
