Tom, here is the info you requested....
1.Cost..$20 to get in the gate and access to the pits so you can race. $2 to buy a number to race with (one time charge only.)$8 for senior citizens and active duty military. Kids under 12 FREE.
2. As you get to the gate they will ask you what kind of racing you plan to do and your bracket. Tell them "sportsman" for your class and "test and tune" for the kind of racing you plan to do. The sportsman class is for those of us who plan to run 13.0 seconds or slower. If you are faster than that you are on your own .
3. Gates open at 9AM on Saturdays and 7AM on Sundays. I recommend getting there before the opening time because there is a REAL big line of people trying to get in and we don't want a late start. I usually leave Tacoma at 8AM.
4. Here are some rules I got right out of their rule book..
No glass bottles or alcohol allowed.
Speed limit is 10 MPH in the pits.
No racers will pit right of the ticket booth (I'll show you where to park if we go together).
No spectator parking in the pits.
No dogs allowed.
No open fires.
Children under 14 are not allowed in the restricted areas.
Children must be supervised at all times.
No firearms allowed.
5. Need white shoe polish in the squeeze bottle to write your racing number on your windshield. I have a bottle that people can use if needed.
6. If you think that your times will be in the 13s or faster you MUST bring a helmet with you. After the first time you hit the 13s thay will tell you that from now on you will need a helmet to compete and they mean it.
7. Food is available. Hamburgers, hotdogs, coffee, soda, etc. |
