<< Track Event Protocal / General Rules >>
Here are just a few things to remember when you come to the Track Event this Friday:
1. IF YOU ARE NOT RACING PARK NEAR THE FENCE CLOSEST TO THE TRACK ANYWHERE PAST THE BLEACHERS. IF THIS GETS FULL START PARKING IN THE MIDDLE GRASSY AREAS. PLEASE DO NOT PARK ALONG THE MAIN STAGING LANES.
2. If you are on the pre-registered racers list you will need to give your name at the gate and pay the $35. If you have additional spectators with you they will pay at that time. ($5.00).
3. If you are racing you will be given a Tech card at the gate. Fill this out and turn them in at the front of the staging lanes when they call for them over the PA system.
4. Make sure to drive carefully down SR64 to the Track. It is not uncommon for speed traps to be set up on this road especially when something is going on at the Track.
5. NO UNDERAGE DRINKING ! I would hate to think what would happen to you should you blow the chance of future events because of your stupidity !
6. The snack bar will be fully operational.
7. If you have never been to the Track before please watch a run or two before racing to get a feel for it. If you have real specific questions post up a thread and someone will answer it.
8. Drive around the water box when going onto the track if you do not need to do a burnout.
Most of all enjoy and have a good time but use some common sense.
Feel free to add your .02 to this thread if you feel it will help.

Fire extingusters
Scott,
Can you see if the track has any CO2 extingusters to use instead of those messy ABC dry chem extingusters? I certainly appricated not having my car on fire anymore, but that was one hell of a mess to clean up. Hopefully that won't happen again!

Scott,
During the March runday Sunday I filled in for the EMS crew until a replacement showed up.Why am I telling you this? Well when I was checking out the equpiment on the truck I found no less than seven ABC extingusters. The dry chem can put out a hydrocarbon(gasoline) fire but it can't keep it out if there is still a source of ignition(hot header pipe). This meens they may need to keep hitting the car with more powder! I will do some research and find out what would be better. Either way something is better that nothing.
