Limited to 40 drivers.

Once drivers check in at the front gate, confirm registration, and receive their car number, they proceed to tech. Tech inspection is brief but thorough. All parts of a driver’s car, both interior and exterior, are to be firmly tied down and secured. All tires will be checked for remaining tread-life and air pressure. Body panels may not be extruding. Extra attention will be granted towards the mechanical aspect of the entries, assuring that all registered vehicles are in an operating condition in accordance to the will of the event’s sanctioning body. The vehicles will have no major fluid leaks, possess a secure battery tie-down, and must be in good working order. All drivers are required to have a helmet with a Snell rating of 95 or higher. Cars deemed un-drivable will not be allowed to participate.

Each heat, or 3 hour session, will include all participants. Considering the number of entries, the registration list will be broken into 4 or more groups of equal numbers. Based on chronological order of each car’s assigned number, participants will be assembled in one of these four groups, and will compete only within his assigned group’s turn. Every driver will be granted 3 attempts of 2 lap runs in every heat, with run order being determined within the run group on a first-come, first-served basis. Once the driver completes his first attempt, he will then proceed to the back of the grid, and await his next attempt.


USA Speedway is a 3/4 mile oval track, BUT we will be using the infield ROAD COURSE for this event. The drift course is designed such that it is almost impossible to hit the wall.

 

So we can't do the irwindale style ??


Does the track have any right turns ??

 

layout of the course?

 

Yes! I=there

 

cheap track time, close to Tampa and Orlando, nice facility, and note we moved the date to 12/12/04 so it does not conflict with other events as originally scheduled. pics and layout in this thread ...
