> [@sureshot007"](#): > > **Confirmed:** Novice School at ECCN on April 20, 2008. All drivers and volunteers will have to pre-register with me via email ( **sureshot007 at gmail dot com** ). Novice school is open to anyone with less than 3 events under their belt. Just wanted to make sure that the “less than 3 events” point doesn’t hold someone with 4-6 events back from signing up. It’s not a strictly enforced item. So if have a half season or so under your belt, feel free to sign up and learn to get faster! And thank you Jeremy (fairgentleman Z) for taking the “my car isn’t ready” excuse out of the equation. ---

I’ll be lucky if my car will be together for this. However, there may still be a spot available with Jeremy (fairgentleman Z), so if you want to do it and don’t have a car, contact him. ---

Sure. Locally, we aren’t going to be as tight about those things as a tour or pro event.
