Autocross Tech Inspections, How does you club do them??? Options

[URY914]

Seems there has been alot of autox events that everyone is attending lately. I was wondering how the different regions and clubs conduct the tech inspections and what gets inspected.

My region makes everyone line up in two lines and several guys check tire pressures, torque the wheels to 85 psi, check the Snell label on your helmet and check that there is nothing loose to roll and around in the trunk(s). Then we have a driver's meeting and then we line up again to grid. I personally think this is a little silly and a big waste of time.

I would rather have the tech guys come to you and look over the cars where they are parked. I think checking the helmet and the overall condition of the car is all that needs to be done.

So my questions are:
How and when is the tech inspection done?
What gets checked?

I know there is no set rules for this but I want to start my club thinking about another procedure.

Thanks,
Paul
