D.12.11 Endurance Event – Passing

D.12.11.1 Passing during Endurance may only be done in the designated passing zones, under the control of the track officials.

D.12.11.2 Passing zones have two parallel lanes – a slow lane for the vehicles that are being passed and a fast lane for vehicles that are making a pass.

D.12.11.3 When a pass is to be made:

a. A slower leading vehicle will receive a Blue Flag

b. The slower vehicle must move into the slow lane and decelerate.

c. The following faster vehicle will continue in the fast lane and make the pass.

d. The vehicle that had been passed may reenter traffic only under the control of the passing zone exit flag.

D.12.11.4 Passing rules do not apply to vehicles that are passing disabled vehicles on the course or vehicles that have spun out and are not moving. When passing a disabled or off track vehicle, slow down, drive cautiously and be aware of all the vehicles and track workers in the area.
