3. Disclaimer and indemnity


In consideration of being permitted to attend and participate in this event as a driver or passenger, I will indemnify and keep harmless DC, its directors, officials, representatives, agents and employees (each and every one of them) from and against all actions, costs, expenses, claims and demands in respect of any loss of or damage to property of myself or others, or injury (fatal or otherwise), arising out of or in connection with my attendance at or participation in the event, or that of any of my guests, which is caused by my own failure to comply with these terms (or any of them) and/or by my own negligence.

DC strongly advises that cars are professionally inspected and set up before any trip or track day;
