Regional Top 5 Drag Racing Event - Where do you Rank?
-
Yeah i have seen this, i think all the rules they have in place are very good, like he said, i wouldnt want to run against dave matt and bill in this, thats not the point. In fact, there should be a 50 mile cruise or something too, to really weed out the field like they do for pump gas drags. I dont think anybody will compete with TCstangs though, they pretty much have this in the bag

i dunno, but having a bunch of 1000+hp cars racing and running 8s it takes 99% of the people in the region out, making it kind of pointless. I might have to order up a roll bar next week, but im not really a part of any club, so i would have to figure out who to be associated with.

I'm glad you guys kind of see where we are coming from with this event. We are trying to keep as many people involved as possible and with the diversity in peoples' racing vehicles it's tough.
We actually thought about doing the 15, 210 or 30 mile cruise in order to qualify, but that opens up a whole new bunch of issues to work through.
What if someone wants to race a car that doesn't have a license plate? What about vehicles devoid of DOT equipment for the purpose of drag racing? Also think of the headache getting everyone together, going to a cruise and keeping track of who does an doesn't make it.
Trust me, we've spent a lot of time on getting the rules to a bare minimum but being the most effective. Doing a pre-cruise is unreasonable we think, but possibly in the future things could change.
The other thing I'd like to point out is that although this event is designed to find the fastest regional car club, it will also be a cool opportunity to find out where your particular group ranks in our area.
The last thing I want to say here, is that the definition of a car club is pretty sketchy. Everyone will have a different idea as to what constitutes as a car club so we left it very broad and open to interpretation.
This is what the rules state about the definition of a car club: "• Car Club: Any group of 5 or more people that have a name for their group that wish to compete."

The question was brought up at tintmasters.net forums if the $40 entry fee is in addition to the standard entrance fee?
The answer is no. The $40 registration fee for this event is all you have to pay to get in and race all day.
