Basic drag racing rules/requirements
Drivers will complete a basic self-tech inspection upon entering the track. If your car is road-worthy it is most likely track ready. No brake fluid changes are required.
Drivers and any passengers will sign a standard track day liability waiver form at the same time.
Standard track day attire rules apply: shirt, shoes, socks, long pants. Short sleeves are ok.
Drivers of cars faster than 14 sec elapsed time (E.T.) need to wear a current SNELL or SFI helmet. If your car is faster than 10 sec E.T. you need to wear a full-face helmet
Note: Road & Track sows a Corvette Z06 at 11.1 sec E.T.
Drivers of cars slower than 14 sec E.T. may have a passenger and do not require a helmet per NHRA rules. If you want to have a passenger or drive a slower car without a helmet, please let the organizer know so he can confirm with the track.
