Racer Self-Certification Tech Program

I like the way they do lane choice at the Summit Series division finals. As cars gradually pull up in the lanes two-by-two you encounter an official who points at one racer who then points left or right to indicate lane preference. Then the same for the other driver. If they ask for opposite lanes he just waves them up, and they cross over if necessary to get to their lanes.

If they ask for the same lane the official points to one driver who gives thumbs up or down for heads or tails. The official flips a coin and directs the drivers to the proper lane.

Takes less time than to send a pair down the track and no one ever has to get near, or talk to, anyone else.
