Get ready to rumble!

Couple of quick notes.

New Venue, new carpet, new racers

Each driver will need to sign a waiver at registration.

Venue:
- Please respect the facilities.
- Kids are welcome but remain the responsibility of their parents/guardians.
- Please respect the club equipment. New carpet was purchased for our races.
- No traction compound or saucing of the tires. If we see it, smell, it, etc. you will be asked to change your tires.
- No burnouts on the carpet.
- Drivers must always maintain control of their truck. Any actions that risk the safety of the facility or participants will not be tolerated.

Racing:
- Single Elimination
- Qualify in both lanes. Faster time seeds you in the bracket
- Fastest remining qualifier against slowest.
- Lane choice is based on previous run time.
- Season Points follow the truck identity. Driver's are allowed one identity change.
- 1 point is earned per round of the bracket.
- Round 1 races count towards points. Round 2 are for bragging rights.
- There will be one drop race.

We will add to this as we go. See you at the track.
