You'll find it.

My recollection is $14 per driver or $25 per couple (not defined).

If you arrive at 6am you are guaranteed to get a spot; at 7am you have a 
very good chance of getting a spot, at 8am you have a very poor chance of 
getting a spot.  Cutting in line at 6am isn't a problem, at 7am will cause a 
lot of outcry, at 8am will occasion physical violence.  Caveat emptor.

The only difference I can recall from SCCA tech requirements are cotter pins 
for any snap-in harnesses, and tight requirements on wheel stud engagement.  
They do go over the car very carefully, and sometimes ruffle SCCA feathers 
since we think we know our cars (I had my Camaro bounced for loose wheel 
bearings that were brand new).  However, it should be borne in mind that the 
event is a practicum for the students, and they also get a lot of very 
strange vehicles coming through the line.  If there is a problem at tech, 
there is usually ample opportunity to go get it resolved and approved.

Prior attendees receive an event flyer - I threw mine out some time ago; 
which is why I'm fuzzy on the entry fees.
