The finalized COVID-19 Compliance Guidelines are below:
- Everyone, entering the event at the pit entrance gate, must submit to a non-contact temperature check prior to entry.
- By entering, each person confirms that they are not currently experiencing COVID-19-like symptoms and have not been recently exposed to the virus. You may be asked related health questions.
- No spectators allowed. SCSC staff, racers and crew only.
- Practice social distancing by maintaining a minimum 6-foot distance from others at all times possible.
- No gathering/loitering of peoples from unrelated racing crews.
- No gatherings allowed. All racer and club meetings and announcements will be delivered over PA system.
- All people onsite shall wear face coverings over their noses and mouths when not able to socially distance 6-feet from others. Only exception for face coverings are those under two years old or meet CDPH guidelines for exemption.
For all racers and pit crew:
- Electronic and cashless payments will be utilized as much as possible for event sign up and racing costs.
- Electronic online racing registration will be required for all pre-registration and encouraged for all registration even at event. Please pre-register with Jody Tepper - jodytepper@gmail.com before Thursday.
- Each race team will be allowed a maximum of 8 crew members, not including boat driver. Capsule boat will be allowed additional 4 people.
- Each boat shall designate a “Crew Chief” that manages their Covid-19 compliance, availability and use of PPE, and is responsible if crew found to not be compliant.
- Each Crew Chief is responsible to provide proper PPE to all of their members and confirm correct usage or be disqualified and removed from the event.
- SCSC will use the PA system to communicate on-site and supplement with signage and other communications.
- No gathering of peoples from unrelated racing crew.
- If they are working in the pit alone or with only members of their own household, they do not have to wear a face covering. If they are working with other people, even if it is only one additional person, we would still recommend a face covering be worn, as it is not likely that social distancing would be maintained the entire time and you are potentially risking prolonged contact without a face covering.
- No loitering outside of designated single boat pit area. No loitering on grass.
- No one allowed to enter SCSC Officials Area (Race HQ) except during registration.
- Preforming maintenance on racing equipment with other mechanics within 6-foot proximity masks and gloves must be worn.
- Minimize interactions between crew members when using tools and materials for race preparation. While maintain race vehicles, it is suggested to either wear gloves or routinely sanitize equipment and tools after single use.
- Require anyone in the crew to stay home it they are sick, experiencing symptoms, show a raised temperature, or have been exposed to someone who is showing symptoms.
- All crews to practice hygienic practices including not touching face with unwashed hands or with gloves, washing hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, use of sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol, and cleaning and disinfecting of frequently touched objects and surfaces such as work benches, tools, tool boxes.
