I am going to go talk and figure out the bracket racing situation later today at 3pm, so by 4pm I will have final details.

The track will be open Saturday at 12pm for those that arrive from outta town and don't get this notice, but the actual event will start at 3pm and will for surely run until headlights are needed, to ensure a cooler temp and a different racing atmosphere. PLEASE LET THOSE FROM OUTTA TOWN KNOW THAT THE RACING WILL OFFICIALLY START AT 3PM ON SATURDAY!!!! However if there is someone that doesn't reach this message, the track will still be open at noon if the early birds wanna race.

Any further questions, please contact Jason at (701)239-8468

I had a buddy totally rebuild his the day before and stay up until 3am to install it so he could leave for the track at 5am.

Yes after brackets are finished up it'll be back to open time trials. Rumor has it runs will go till headlights need to be used.

The only down-side on that, is if I went after work and only made it in time for the bracket-racing and was eliminated right away, it kind of kills going (that day) if I happened to get eliminated right away. Since we don't know the turn out; so I figure I'll spectate on Sat. and Run on Sun... since I don't know for sure what time I will get out there at..

When I saw that you guys were going til dark on Saturday, I thought I maybe was able to make a 2-day event out of it since I work Sat til about the middle of the afternoon, however, since during the evening on that Sat. it's only bracket/eliminations.. So, the questions I have is, if they do the bracket racing/eliminations on Sat. and they all finish up early, is it going back to open racing? And also, if you do do brackets on Sunday, will their also be eliminations?

Yes after brackets are finished up it'll be back to open time trials. Rumor has it runs will go till headlights need to be used.

If more cars show up for the faster categories we can accomodate as need be, but we're planning on whats going to show up, not what might show up.

Why bracket racing in the fast classes and heads up in the slow classes?
Why not half second, or even full second, indexes like everyone else, just on a pro tree?

Nothing like slamming on the brakes! 🙂 😉 😛

Because there isn't enough cars in every class to be able to run heads up. Not gonna set a bracket for every index and have half the classes w/ 3 cars.

Event brought to you by tintmasters
Trophies/Bracket racing organization provided by Straightline Specialties

3-5pm - Time trials/free reign of the track
5-6pm - Prep track/everyone sign up for their cars class
6-DARK - Classed / Bracketed Competition

Classes are (bikes and cars together):

9.00-10.99 - BRACKET racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
11.00-11.99 - BRACKET racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
12.0-12.99 - BRACKET racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
13.00-13.49 - HEADS UP racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
13.50-13.99 - HEADS UP racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
14.00-14.49 - HEADS UP racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
14.50-14.99 - HEADS UP racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd
15.00-30.00 - BRACKET racing - trophies for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd

All categories are SINGLE ELIMINATION, meaning if you lose at any point during the competition you are done.

Those that will be in the BRACKET racing category will race with dialed in times (you will determine what number to the tenth you will dial in during the 3-5pm time trials). Meaning someone with a 12.1 dialed in time may race against someone with a 12.9 dialed in time. The person with the faster car (12.1) will have the staging "tree" start .8 seconds after the 12.9 car, giving the racers equal oppurtunity to win. If you go faster than your dialed in time, you lose. so you want to come as close the 12.1 without hitting a 12.09999. Most of this style race is won with reaction time, and 60 foot. Think of this as a "pinks" style race, except the cars don't start halfway down the track, the time difference is accounted for at the tree....maybe a little indepth for everyone, but many probably haven't been exposed to this style of racing.

Those that will be in the HEADS UP racing categories will race within a .50 second category. This style of racing is pretty simple. You pick which category you want to race in (say 14.50-14.99 class) and you will race "first to the finish line" with another car in that same class. The same 'break out' rule applies, where if you run faster than the category time, you lose. Example is, a car in the 14.50-14.99 class CANNOT run a 14.49999 or they automatically lose.

There will be organized lanes for classes. One lane will be for the 9.00-11.99 class, another for the next class and so on. IF YOU WIN YOUR RACE, YOU WILL GET BACK IN THE APPROPRIATE LANE AND WAIT FOR YOUR CLASS TO RUN AGAIN. IF YOU DO NOT REENTER THE LANE, YOU POSITION MAY BE FORFEITED!

At the end of the Saturday, if you think your car or bike is in the top 8 cars, please bring your fastest timeslip to a table and you may enter into the "Car Quick 8 shootout" or "Bike Quick 8 shootout" that will be held on Sunday afternoon.

If there is enough demand to do classed racing on Sunday, we can do it with no trophies, otherwise we will run open lanes as done in the past, with the exception of the (2) "Quick 8 shootout" (Bracket style racing) classes.

Any questions feel free to call Jason @ (701)239-8468
