Safety rules have been added:
Someone asked about safety. This looks like a good thing to address right now.
Requirements for all classes. 1. Helmet. Any Dot or Snell approved full face helmet that does not have any visible damage and the inner lining is all there. 2. at least a 2 3/4 lbs ABC fire extinguisher. 3. at least 2 throttle return springs. 4. Your equipment must pass a visual tech inspection. We will be looking over your suspension modifications, wheel studs, any welded mods etc.. U bolts must have threads sticking through the nuts. No broken or missing lugs or nuts.
We are not going to pick your rigs apart!! but we are not going to let you race if we feel your equipment is unsafe.
Stock ,modified and pro-modified classes can run stock seat belts (race approved seats and 5 point harnesses are strongly recommended)
