and staff.
Participant numbers will be limited to ensure only 2 (two) car or bike per garage. Each participant at
all open tracks will be allowed 2 (two) additional passengers ONLY.
Temperature checks will be conducted on all visitors upon arrival at KMT. Anyone who shows a
temperature outside the government-advised range (38 degrees) will not be able to enter the venue.
All staff, marshals, and participants will be required always to wear masks (unless a helmet is being
worn). Any KMT Staff doing the sign-on and scrutineering procedures will be required to wear gloves.
We will do a contactless sign-on and scrutineering procedure and minimize the number of persons in
these areas to limit interactions.
Session briefings will be conducted within the government-advised social distancing guidelines, and
the briefing room will be monitored with a separate “in” and “out” door being used. Only drivers will
be allowed to attend the briefing to assist with the numbers in the room, and drivers will only be able
to sit in socially distanced seats.
To eliminate the chances of cross-contact occurring, we ask the participant to bring their own seats.
Bathrooms of all garages will be sanitized during the changeover of each session.
Hand sanitizer stations will be positioned near all doors. Where this is not possible, hand sanitizer
stations will be positioned.
