OUR GOALS
Why is this happening?
We’ll have a race track setup with multiple race cars available. As the people show up, we’ll setup races on the fly in order to:
Test track layouts with multiple racers of different skills
Experiment with different classification and race formats
Make sure our race format works fairly for all skill levels
Test onboarding procedures
After the event, we’ll send you a survey to provide us with some insights that will help us prepare Piolhos Elétricos to be as fun and sustainable as possible for everyone.

FAQ
Do I have to be there the whole shift?
No, hang out for as long as you can and expect to be given a chance to drive during that shift.Can I stick around outside of my shift?
Yes. You can still stick around and watch but will be unlikely to have a chance to drive during that period.Can I bring my kids along?
Yes! In the sign up form, you’ll be asked how many people you’ll bring along and their ages and skill level.Why an age limit of 8?
From our early research, anything below that will be very frustrating to deal with so many rules and regulations of a race track.Can I still bring my kids if they’re below 8?
Yes, but they will not be able to drive any of our racing cars.If you have any other questions, send them to [email protected]
