Looks like I'd be good to go with a passenger. Guess I'll be signing up for the October HDPE.

4.6 HPDE Passenger Privileges
A passenger is defined as any participant possessing the proper wristband or credential,
riding in a moving vehicle while on track, yet is not in physical control of that vehicle.
NASA Instructors are not considered passengers for the purposes of this section. All
passengers must be at least 18 years old. Minors that are participants in the event
should not be a passenger, unless riding with an instructor, for the purposes of
instruction.
1. The ability to take a passenger on-track is a revocable privilege, not a right.
2. Passengers may be allowed in all HPDE groups, unless otherwise specified.
3. Group 1 (“School” or Beginner) participants must get specific permission from their
Instructor before a passenger may be allowed in the vehicle.
4. Passengers must use the same safety equipment and attire as required of the
driver.
5. Passengers should not be allowed in vehicles where they are sitting near or below
obstructions (i.e. “Petty bar”) that may pin or trap them, or cause other possible
harm.
6. Passengers are not allowed to possess a camera of any type while on-track.
7. Anyone that is involved in a spin or off track excursion with a passenger in the car
may lose his or her passenger privileges for the day.
8. Only one (1) passenger is allowed at any given time, in any car, unless an Instructor
is driving.
9. Passengers should not commit any action as to cause interference or distraction of
the driver or any other drivers.
10. Passengers should keep their arms and hands inside the vehicle at all times.
11. Passengers are not permitted to place any part of their bodies, such as their hands,
in any area that is between any roll bar/cage tubing and the body panels of the
interior. Doing so may result in crushed limbs. Enforcement of this rule is the
responsibility of the driver.
12. Passengers are not allowed in open-top cars that do not provide adequate roll bar
protection for the passenger side of the car (e.g. an original Shelby Cobra.)
