Are you talking on this page?

I see the speed control column says Open but the header says No Boost. That appears to be where your question comes from right?

My IIC entry is now in (Fran booked flights and hotel weeks ago 
)
Two classes this time - World GT and F1. My CEFX WGT car is still set up for 13.5 blinky from the Snowbirds, so an easy choice for that class. And I couldn't resist the chance to run F1 with Scotty and some of the UF1 crew

Here is how it was done in the past years. You present your car to the tech area for visual inspection. Then they check your battery voltage. If your voltage is to high you have the opportunity to go fix it and present your car again. If ok, then you proceed to the speed control check if you are not running a modified class to verify you have it in the correct mode. After that your car is weighed to make sure it meets the weight requirement. Then you move to the stone where ride height, wing, and if WGT rear track is measured.
After the race, while you are marshalling, cars are inspected for the above mentioned items and the tech crew reserves the right to keep the car for further investigation.
There maybe changes this year but this is how it was done in the past.
Overall, it is a pretty painless process and it tends to flow pretty quickly. Just don't be that guy that comes up 30 seconds before you go on the track and expect them hold up the program for you.

How are motors done? Are they teched before the quals start? Are they sealed and labeled?

A few quick questions, will we be able to buy extra sets of touring car tires or will there be a strict limit like the IFMARS, and is there a LiveRC posting or something of who is already signed up so I can hound some of my buddies if they aren't already on the list...
