The hard card is a big step forward for minors who had to have a parent handy to sign waivers before. Next year you will find more of the Southeast tracks ready to deal with them.

We got a hard card for Andrea this year because it was just easier for a 16-yr old minor who can now go in the hot pits and work. Getting the form notarized was the worst part (but only because someone decided he wanted to do it for himself also after we were already at the bank for the notary and we didn't have more forms with us.) For the minor both parents signatures had to be notarized. Then just email a .jpg picture to Topeka.

I've had my hard card for the entire season and have not signed a waiver yet this year. If you have to sign it is really a training issue, either at the individual volunteer level or possible the local registrar.
I am certainly all for the system as it now takes me less than 60 seconds to register as a driver and even less hassle as a worker.

Ok ok, I'll get one. But I'm getting it fully expecting to be signing waivers and having the normal check in in the SE, which is fine by me.
Don't get me wrong, I am all for the hard card. Just a matter of training the registrars and tracks. Can't wait until they add scanning of the bar code!
BTW, did anyone get the email from Topeka announcing that they were streamlining some of the membership/license renewal processes? They will be mailing out medical exam forms only to drivers who need them as opposed to everyone. They are also going to track National race participation so you will not have to mail race documentation when you renew. This process will be added for Regional races in the future.
A side note for the Regional race data, we should be able to get participation numbers.
