Race numbers are not required during practice.
There will then be 4 rounds of qualifying round by round. Race numbers will be required on all cars, one on the window and one on the left side.
The finals will be single leg apart from the 'A' final which will be 3 legs.

WOW guys that is a SERIOUSLY early start time for a regional, we did not start proceedings that early at the national this weekend
(see below). Is it worth considering pegging back some of those times slightly in light of the fact that some drivers from the region have to travel 2+ hours to your venue from the far north of our region - since you are the southern most track)
Only a suggestion, but we dont want to put people off with a sub 4am start to their journey which may then lead to them canceling their entry....
(National this weekend - most arrived at around 7/7:30am, Booking in 7-8am, Practise started at 8am, 2 rounds of 3 minute heats practise. Drivers breifing (quite a long one) followed that and heat 1 of qualifying was at 10.05am - bare in mind this was with an extra 20 drivers too - 120 - with only a 100at the regional we would have 4 less practises, 10 less heats and 2 less finals to run, meaning a saving of around 1hr 45 ish over a national - which finished just after 6pm......... just an idea guys.)
