Hi All

Here's the details on the event:

1. The default sound limit is 92 decibels on the A scale measured at 15 meters from the track edge. Vehicles violating the limit will be black flagged and not allowed on track without corrective measures - something you can add to the car, not short-shifting where you think the sound guy is standing.... PLEASE COME PREPARED. This limit will be strictly enforced. NO refund will be given for that day for cars that are flagged for sound!

2. It’s a busy weekend in the area. There is a triathalon and this weekend is the National Holiday of Quebec, which is a popular long weekend for Quebecers to take some extra vacation time and enjoy the area. Bring some patience Saturday and Sunday when you’re making the trip up. The triathlon is based in the Village North of the track, and uses the roads in and out of the village for the bike and running events. There will be some road closures and detours. Here’s a link to a list of closures put out by the local C of C: https://medias.tremblant.ca/pdf/eveneme ... ant-en.pdf

3. The triathalon organizer also has a very good website that includes an interactive map of road closures and times https://www.ironman.com/triathlon/event ... z5r1h3OII7.
The main event is Sunday, it starts early and the winner is known by noon; so, the later you arrive Sunday, the better off you are traffic-wise. The roads to the North ( from Chemin Sequin) and South (from Chemin du Village) gates are one way most of the day, If you are staying in the village check with your hotel about any parking issues. The gates to the track (both North and South) will be open

• a. Saturday: 9am to 5pm
  b. Sunday from 5pm to 10pm,
  c. Monday from 7am to 10pm,
  d. Tuesday from 7am to 7pm.
  e. Wednesday from 7am to 7pm

4. It will be possible to drop off trailers Saturday and Sunday 9am-5pm, and to leave trailers there on Wednesday if you are staying in the area a few extra days. Coordination with the staff at the track is REQUIRED, don’t just drop anything and run. They will direct you to where they need you to park. The staff will try to bring the big rigs in directly over the track Saturday and Sunday to park in the paddock, but will not promise availability of this. You may need to park in the Cart track area Saturday and then move in late Sunday

5. The South entrance is at 1281 Chemin du Village, this is the first entrance you pass coming from the south. If you’re driving a big rig especially, please use this entrance. There is a second entrance ( North gate) up the road just past Lac Moore (Chemin du Seguin) that will be open if you are driving your track car and staying in the Village area.

6. Camping is allowed on the property, but you’re going to be off the grid – no hook-ups. There is some space to pitch a tent if you like, and you’re welcome to stay in your hauler. There is a dump station and access might be available Tuesday late before you leave
