[11] - What if my car has OnStar?

If you have a car with OnStar you should be aware that driving in a manor that Autocrossing promotes may cause certain conditions to occure that will trick OnStar into thinking you've been in a crash and the airbag has deployed. This can result in the very ackward situation of OnStar calling you while in the midle of a lap while still racing. Just be aware of this situation since there is no work-around available at this point. The only sure way to avoid this is to not activate OnStar with your car.
