I'll be there and need a paper rule book.
I don't have the time to go check our Sups, but I thought we had a minimum of 1 year running with the region to get annual tech.
I think the chief of tech can waive this, but don't think it is a good idea for novices to have annual tech. It's a good thing to have somebody poke around their cars each weekend to make sure there is nothing rolling around under the seats, and stuff is bolted down... Also makes them get there on time.
I also recall US Citizenship being a new addition to the rules.
