I'm sure you'd be able to enter, but I'm not too sure how competitive you are going to be. Which class were you thinking about?

this race is very hardcore. the newbs should be discouraged to go as they probably wont meet safety standards. this type of heads up racing is just about a protype environment. i hope it attracts the big dogs. orlando is a shithole.

How "street" are these street cars? I'm curious about what kind of cars will be racing before going. What kind of stuff are we talking about?

they are full out race cars. i would expect mostly 9 second cars and much faster. in the outlaw class, no doubt 7 and 6 second cars if it mimics Orlando. drag radial will have a slew of 8 second cars as well.

I went to the Orlando event in October, it was so packed, you could hardly see both cars running.

For the guy asking what kind of cars are there. Here are a couple of shots from that event for reference:

They called the race early due to the track/weather conditions.
