I suspect it's a bit early for this question, but what are the current thoughts on Covid rules: lead-follow, in-car?

I did lead-follow with another club which worked pretty well, but I've since learned that 3M "Aura" masks fit easily under a helmet (and are available on Amazon now).

PCA, a group of "senior" instructors did training last year to help train other instructors on PCA Lead-Follow protocol but Potomac did not need to use it and all our Covid mitigation protocols at track worked well with no known spread

You're right. It's a bit early, but we'll continue to adjust as things change much like we did last year. While we're prepared with things like lead/follow as Dirk mentioned, it's likely we'll take a similar instruction approach as last year depending on safety guidance and the current situation.

I'm very excited to get back to the track with everyone!
