And, no, you do not have to print out the registration…you can simply reference your email confirmation or show us a screen shot of the registration on your phone. All we ask is that you do have the registration number. You should also bring 1 form of non-expired government issued identification (i.e. current and valid driver’s license, current and valid state issued identification, passport, etc.).
