D.10.1.1 Course Design
Two pairs of concentric circles in a figure of eight pattern
Centers of the circles 18.25 m apart
Inner circles 15.25 m in diameter
Outer circles 21.25 m in diameter
Driving path the 3.0 m wide path between the inner and outer circles
D.10.1.2 Cone Placement
a. Sixteen (16) pylons will be placed around the inside of each inner circle and thirteen (13) pylons will be positioned around the outside of each outer circle in the pattern shown in the Skidpad layout diagram.
b. Each circle will be marked with a chalk line, inside the inner circle and outside the outer circle
The Skidpad layout diagram shows the circles for cone placement, not for course marking.
Chalk lines are marked on the opposite side of the cones, outside the driving path
c. Additional pylons will establish the entry and exit gates.
d. A cone may be placed in the middle of the exit gate until the finish lap.
D.10.1.3 Course Operation
a. Vehicles will enter and exit through gates on a 3.0 m wide path that is tangential to the circles where they meet.
b. The line between the centers of the circles defines the start/stop line.
c. A lap is defined as traveling around one of the circles from the start/stop line and returning to the start/stop line.
