2024 Marvelous May Race and Driver's School FAQ

It’s been a decade since RMVR has used this School/Spring Race format. We attempted to provide clarity in the text within the entries themselves, however in the registration process it is easy to miss this information. Following is a Frequently Asked Questions Guide to assist your planning for the weekend.

Q: How much track time do I get as an instructor? As a student?

A: Students and instructors will get 11 sessions over the 3 days - 4 Friday, 4 Saturday, and 3 Sunday.

 

Q: I plan to instruct. Do I need to sign up for the race weekend AND sign up as an instructor?

A: If you plan to instruct, then just sign up as an instructor on the Driver's School signup page on MSR. No need to register for the Marvelous May Race.

 

Q: Can I race AND instruct?

A: Our intent is to give the students a more relaxed pace weekend. This will allow them to prep their cars between sessions along with having plenty of 1:1 time with their instructor. To accomplish this, we planned to have the instructors be in the student sessions only on Friday and Saturday. Sunday the students and instructors will be racing with their respective run groups. A split grid is planned for the first race Sunday. 2nd and 3rd races split grid is to be determined.

  

Q: What if I sign up as an instructor and at the last minute am not needed?

A: Drivers who sign up to instruct but not needed will be allowed to enter the Marvelous May race event for the Early Bird price. We will do our best to give advanced notice on this.

  

Q: As a Student, when do I need to be at the track?

A: Whatever plan works for you to have your car ready to go on the track and you ready to dress to drive at 8:30 Friday morning is the plan you need to follow. If that is a Thursday evening arrival, great. An early riser and showing up at the gate at 6:30? Whatever works for you. Friday is a FULL DAY, not a brief meeting at 5:30 like was done at PPIR for several years. First classroom session is Friday at 8:30, first on-track session is at 10:00.
