We will make our best efforts to give every racer two time trials on Friday and one on Saturday. If the need arises, we will have a special session Saturday morning for the Race of Champions participants, and then fill in between ROC rounds with the remainder of competitors.

• All classes will be called to the lanes in sessions. Each team will be assigned specific lanes and sessions throughout the event. From those assignments, a random draw will be made to pair the lanes for each elimination round.
• Potential bye runs in eliminations will be done by random draw during the first round. During subsequent rounds, the best winning reaction time will have earned the potential bye for the following round.
• Lane choice will be done by a coin toss at the head of the lanes.

Each team is allowed up to four (4) team captains. Team captains will handle any and all problems or discrepancies that one of their competitors may encounter. Only one team captain will be allowed in the tower at any one time. Any disputes must be brought to the event director by a team captain. Division Director will rule on an issues and have final say on such.

Each competitor will be required to run the series decal for the duration of eliminations. Those not having the decal will not earn points for team or be eligible for any prizes or awards.

The NHRA Trailer will have a very limited supply of these. All racers are encouraged to have and/or get decals from the manufacturer prior to the event. Decals must be on vehicle for duration of eliminations. The contingency verification will take place after the race, but will be checked against photos from earlier rounds to see that decals were in place.

• All classes, with the exception of Bike/Sled, will be run on a five-tenth full tree with optional staging.
• Deep staging will be allowed, but it may not be written on the vehicle, nor will the starter make any changes to the starting procedure for those deep staging. Those deep staging assume all risk and must get in first as Autostart will be on for ALL categories.
• Bike/Sled will run on a split tree.
• CrossTalk will be used in Super Pro only.
• No passengers will be allowed in any vehicle during time trials or competition.
• Dial-ins and numbers must be on the front, left side, and rear windows at Pacific Raceways
• Shoe polished numbers are only allowed in Sportsman
• Dial-ins must be displayed prior to leaving the head of staging lanes and entering the ready area, and may not be altered beyond that point unless OK’d by the event director.
• Once a driver pre-stages their vehicle, they have accepted the posted dial-ins on the scoreboard.
• Excessive braking may be grounds for disqualification. Starter and/or Event Director will have final say on issuing a warning or an expulsion. If a warning is issued, any subsequent infraction will be grounds for immediate disqualification.
• Any racer or crew member found to be under the influence of alcohol or other substances, during racing hours, will be immediately excused from the event and the facility.
• All tech cards must be filled in completely and legibly, being sure to indicate your team name or designator at the TOP of the tech card.
• Team designator must be displayed on the driver’s side lower portion of the windshield. They should also be displayed on the left side and back of the vehicle.

Track operators are responsible for policing their team’s pit vehicles for improper use and NO MOTORIZED PIT VEHICLES are allowed from 1 hour after racing has concluded until 1 hour prior to racing resuming the following day. All riders must be licensed and a minimum of 16 years of age.

Each team will be designated a specific pit area. We ask that all participants curtail any noisy activities at 11PM on any night. Please also be respectful of the facility and use trash cans to dispose of any trash prior to leaving the facility.

This prestigious award will be given to the team that displays the best spirit based on these factors:

Each track may send up to four drivers, with a minimum of one per category. Racers will be split into Lightning and Thunder classes based on ET and experience.
