Looking for some info or details on the T/S T/D race on the 10th. Questions like, 1/8th or 1/4 or 1000ft? Payouts. Entry Fees, times. How many cars per class. Is there a min dial? How many qualifying sessions are planned? How will the cars be laddered? How is lane choice going to be determined? How strict will rules be enforced? Diapers? Certs? Crap like that. Thanks Chuck.

Here is what I've been able to get so far:


details on the T/S T/D race on the 10th.

Questions like, 1/8th or 1/4 or 1000ft? 1000'

How many cars per class. All run

Is there a min dial? TS=6.90, TD=6.70

IHRA Pro Am/Nitro Jam rules apply to all classes, including the Rod/.90 classes. As soon as I get more I'll post it.

hey guys... I heard (via my Sheetz cashier of all people... ha), there was a wreck at the track this past weekend... an 8 second car lost a transmission line going through the traps and it just got uglier at that point, with a bit of a fire too... i'm guessing the driver was ok? hope the car didn't get too messed up... any idea who it was?

we're hoping to finally make it to the track either this weekend or next weekend, have been trying to finish up my cage, but it's so hard to get motivated to work on it after i get back from work each day... last thing ya wanna do after working on cars all day long is to work on your car!

argh... that's tough to hear, glad he's ok though, one can always rebuild... just feel bad whenever a car gets that messed up, takes so long to get a car to where it's at and then you gotta start from scratch again

Very good first points day yesterday!

We (as in me and my boys) got a late start this year, and pretty unorganized so far, with a lot of things not going as planned. I had to rely on a lot of friends yesterday for help, thanks to all.
In my rush I'm sure I missed a lot but did notice one thing, I seen a lot of return track workers. Probably lead to the very smooth first day, people knew what they were doing - Great job everyone!

Congrats to Adam for winning Top, fine young man, and junior dragster graduate - getting er done.


Most important, keep the shiny side up

It was a good first day! Definitely the right call to go 1/8th... that crosswind was a bear. The program moved nicely. Congratulations Adam Duche! That was really cool. Congrats to my brother and teammate Mike Balaska for getting the W in Modified. Results from all classes are on the PRP website, Race Results page.
