GENERAL RULES
HAVE FUN!
I want to go over a few track rules that we are going to have in place for 2008.
1. No smoking. simple. You might be warned the first time, you might be asked to leave the first time. It's not worth loosing our track over this matter. We spent a couple months looking for a track let us to race. It's not only our rule, but the rules on school property.
2. There will be no pitting, or spectating past half track. With some of the cars getting over 80 mph we don't want anything to happen down there.
3. A catch person must be at the end of the track to get your car. Please do not turn the car back around or turn the car towards your catch person, keep the car straght if at all possible. (easier said then done sometimes!) The last thing we want is the car to glitch and come back up the track or speeding towards the catch person. We are asking that the catch person stand up on the curb to the right side of the track untill the cars have come to a stop. If you came by yourself, ask a fellow racer or sombody to help you out. They should be willing to do that.
4. Please run side by side in practice and qualifying if possible. We have more and more racers showing up all the time which is great, but single runs only makes qualifying that much longer. I know we all want to get out of there at a decent time.
No LiPo batteires except for an Extreme type car, which at this point is not a class, but may be if there are enough cars.
Nitro powered drag cars are MORE then welcome to compete in Bracket, Comp, Funny Car, and extreme. All Nitro cars must line up to the left side of the groove to keep the starting line as clean as possible.
