Registration:  Every racer will pay an annual registration fee of $25.00 prior to racing on the track.  Junior Dragsters are $5.00.

Sportsman Like Conduct:  Everyone will treat Officials, racers, and spectators with respect.  ANYONE using foul language or threatening behavior will be asked to leave.  Unsportsman like conduct will NOT be tolerated and may result in forfeiting all winnings, points and attendance to the facility.

Alcoholic Beverages:  Alcoholic beverages are NOT allowed in the pits.  Drivers will be disqualified.  Others will be asked to leave the pits and go to the spectator side

Speed Limit in the Pits:  The speed limit is 5 mph in the pits.  We do not want a tragedy and have someone injured because of someone going over the speed limit.  A person must be a licensed driver to operate bicycles, scooters, golf carts, etc. from the time the ambulance arrives until the ambulance leaves.  No skateboards at any time during racing.

Tow Cars:  Tow cars for Super Pro cars only.  Get down the strip as quick as possible to get your tow.  Anyone in the back of a tow pick-up must be seated and at least 14 years old.  All minors must have a signed minor liability waiver on file with the Humboldt Del Norte Timing Association.

Running Vehicles:  There must be a qualified driver in the driver’s seat any time a vehicle is running.

Jack Stands:  Before anyone goes under a vehicle, it must be supported by jack stands.  If your vehicle is running and the rear tires are elevated, you must support the vehicle with jack stands.

Burn Outs:  Super Pro may burn out across the line once.  Pro, Quick Street and Street cannot cross the line at any time.  Burnouts will be from the edge of the water box forward. 

Staging Procedures:  The courtesy staging procedure is highly recommended.  A car SHOULD NOT go in and turn on both the pre stage and stage lights before their opponent enters the stage lights.  Make dial-in’s clear and large – front and left side windows.  All staging procedures are forward motion only in eliminations.

Blue Line Rule:  The blue line is 24” behind the starting line.  Once the front tires cross this line, no one can touch the car.

Deep Staging:  Deep staging is optional in all categories.  DEEP must be written on all four corners of your car so the starter and your opponent can see that you will be deep staging.

Right of Way:  After crossing the finish line, the car in the spectator lane has the right of way when making the left turn on to the return road.  If you are ahead, let the spectator lane pass in front of you before moving over to the right.

Down Track Safety:  Do not remove seat belts/helmet until after you have made the turn on to the return road.  It is highly recommended that you leave them on until you enter the pits. 

Round Winners, PLEASE get back into line as soon as possible.  It is the driver's responsibility to know when you are to be in the lanes ready to run.  If your car is not able to hot lap, do not run in more than one class.

DO NOT TAKE COMPLAINTS TO THE TOWER!   All complaints or problems are to be directed to the class representatives.

If your car gets out of shape, get out of it and save your equipment.

Please Remember that the speed limit is
5 mph in the pits!
