The following are the Crash To Pass Running and Safety Rules for the 2010 race season.  Please be sure, before your cars come to the track, that you are conforming to all to all rules as written.  We want everyone to be safe and to have fun.  It is much easier to build your car to the rules now, than to try to fix it at the track on race days!

The pit gate will open at 2pm for Crash To Pass and racing will begin at 6pm.  No one is allowed in the pit area before the pit gate personnel is on site and open for business.  All participants must come to the gate, stop and pay, sign a waiver form, and put on a wrist band.  NO EXCEPTIONS.  We are opening the gate early so you have the opportunity to comply with this necessary process before you enter the pits as our insurance demands it be done this way.

All Crash To Pass cars will then be teched by two tech men and a sticker will be placed on your car to let the flagman know you have passed tech.  Please come early so you can get this done on time.  Your car must pass completely in order to compete.

Crash To Pass events will run as follows:

1.    Pay upon arriving at pit gate, sign a waiver, put on a wrist band, and proceed into pit area

2.    Have your car teched

3.    Car will not be timed in

4.    Racing will begin with dashes followed by heats

5.    There will be a twenty minute intermission

6.    The main will start immediately following the intermission

There will be a trophy for each dash and the main event will have trophy for 1^st, 2^nd, and 3^rd place.  Pay out for the main will be: 1^st place $1000; 2^nd $500; 3^rd $300; 4^th $200; and $100 for 5^th place.
