Spectators don't need to be on the list just pay the normal entrance fee. Usually $10 bucks.

Just got update from track. $30 racer entrance fee includes Day Race, Night Race, burger, fries, and drink with some refills. That's a great deal and take the time to thank one of the track managers Bernie for hooking us up.

Plan on being there by 9am-10am to set up and get tech'd. You can also leave after the day race and come back for the night race, just don't lose your wristband.

Any questions ask away. See you all this weekend

Evan

Good choice. It's a shame that it took 3 months and 2 track events to figure out they can't fix it. Before you know it 2009 reason season is over and gone.... Hope to see your beast back up and running soon. Come join the dark side young walker....you won't regret it LOL!!!! JK.

Spectators are $10 each and I don't need names for them. If they plan to stay for night session have to pay for night session as well. Keep your wristband on or don't leave in between sessions and you should be ok.

Elapsed Time bracket racing explained

Here you go. Just remember leave on the 3rd amber or your late.
What is E.T. Racing?
By far the most popular form of drag racing is a handicapped form of competition known as E.T. bracket racing. In this form of racing, two vehicles of varying performance potentials can race on a potentially even basis. The anticipated elapsed times for each vehicle are compared, and the slower car receives a head start equal to the difference of the two. With this system, virtually any two vehicles can be paired in a competitive drag race.

For Example: Car A has been timed at 17.78, 17.74, and 17.76 seconds on the quarter-mile, and the driver feels that a dial-in of 17.75 is appropriate. Meanwhile, the driver of car B has recorded elapsed times of 15.27, 15.22, and 15.26 on the same track and has opted for a dial-in of 15.25. Accordingly, car A will get a 2.5-second head start against car B when the Christmas Tree counts down to each car's starting green lights.

If both vehicles cover the quarter-mile in exactly the predetermined elapsed time, the win will go to the driver who reacts quickest to the starting signal. That reaction to the starting signal is called reaction time. Both lanes are timed independently of one another, and the clock does not start until the vehicle actually moves. Because of this, a vehicle may sometimes appear to have a mathematical advantage in comparative elapsed times but actually lose the race. This fact makes starting-line reflexes extremely important in drag racing!

After both cars are staged, the starter activates Christmas Tree, and three amber lights and one green are sequenced.

Racers use amber lights as a guide to anticipate the green bulb coming on. If they leave too soon, a bright red foul shows.

What is "Breakout" and/or "Red-light"?
Should a racer go quicker than his or her predetermined dial-in, it is a breakout and grounds for disqualification. If both racers make runs under their dial-ins, the win goes to the racer who breaks out the least. Another form of disqualification is a foul start, or red light. This happens when the racer reacts to the Christmas Tree too quickly and leaves the starting line before the green go signal. When dual infractions occur (for example, a red-light and then a breakout), the red-light takes precedence over the breakout.

Yes they can't enter until after 6pm and just pay the normal $20 night test n' tune fee. We'll still have our own lane. If they are spectators during the day and decide to run the night session, then they will have to drive out and drive back in to get a tech card to run.

yes, the guy who owns the other E55 is away on biz. So we just happend to get the one with the cage. I dont even know what it makes for power off the top of my head.

I dropped the ball yesterday. When a friend of Rich's brought in an SL65 black series. I totally forgot to tell him about the event. It would have been so cool to see one of those at Evan's meet. I'm going to get a phone call to him tomorrow. Just to see if he will bring it out so we all can drool.

not going to make it buddy! since my car wasn't going to be ready, i scheduled work for the morning and early afternoon and now i just made early dinner plans (she's cuter than you).

have a great day and i'll be with you in spirit (since that's the only way i can race the e55 lately). the brighter side is that the disgust of dealing with this mess has opened my eyes to the bike again. the duc's getting a new clutch and complete service and i'll soon be running circles around firebird east again!

Have fun guys! Hate to miss another track/drag event. At least I found the problem with my car after 2 weeks of diagnosis. It's the crank sensor.
