All,
I've been getting questions on how the Drag Racing event will be handled. We've settled on a bracket setup, with a "Race of Champions" at the end to roll-it all up.
Classes:
11.99 and Faster
12.00 to 12.99
13.00 to 13.99
14.00 and Up
We will have two trophies for each class, a 1st Place and a Runner Up. In Addition, there will be a Trophy for Fastest ET and a trophy for the Slowest ET
The Winner from each class will move on to the Race of Champions. Will again, will be a bracket race in two rounds to determine the winner of the entire event. There will be trophies for the 1st and 2nd place Race of Champions Participants.
In addition to the above, we will accept a LIMITED number of pre-arranged GRUDGE matches. A Grudge match is a Heads up, first one to the end wins type of race. If you're interested in a grudge match and have someone in mind AND They agree, BOTH of you need to send ME an email by July 28th at the LATEST to be included on the grudge match list. Email logan@mercurymarauder.net
Gates open at 8AM SHARP. Time trials will go from 9AM to 11:30AM and the RACE IS ON as of 12 NOON. We will race until about 4PM and wrap things up with the trophy presentation. After which, it's over to Kenny Brown for a BBQ Party!
Keep in mind that the IMOA show grounds are open on Friday and you also have to register with the IMOA on Friday too.
We will require a number of volunteer's to help out running the event. I will be doing SOME announcing, SOME racing, SOME mingling and heck, even greeting folks arriving at the track (and making sure y'all paid your dues! )
It's going to be a kickin' event and I'm really looking forward to seeing some old, and alot of new faces this year!!
