You just need a ringer car, like a Festiva.

N00b Question: Can two drivers share one car in the same session?

Of course, just make sure you notate that on the registration and be sure to switch the numbers on your car.

And both drivers need to register separately, of course.

But, yeah, we have "two driver cars" all the time. We'll usually run you in the same run group unless you request otherwise. Sometimes I try to split up the drivers if both are first-timers just because it's easier for them. (no need to hustle for driver changes, more time to learn from an instructor)

We're both first timers. Separate run groups sounds better.

No problem. Just be sure you have your co-driver listed (there's a place for it), and maybe drop a note that you want to run separately in case I forget. (I forget stuff... a lot)

It's not the size of the dog in the fight it's the size of the fight in the dog.

Go Fido. Fewer negatives more positives - photo man.
