[camaroracer1992]

[Ian]

in all fairness, tim's runs. its just not insured or registered or something like that. I on the other hand have no excuse because I sold 2 fbodies to pay for my jeep. :?

[NJSPEEDER]

mine isn't insured right now. i took the carb off about a week ago to seal the motor up for winter too, but that is nothing that can't be fixed in 15mins :)

So, to run on that Friday night,would i be allowed to run, since i'm not really street driven but looks like a street car and with mufflers on,all lights work, it would be cool to run just for that night. could someone find out. Thanks. JR1.

[NJSPEEDER]

friday night all you have to do is pass the normal friday night tech at island. there are no restrictions other than what the nhra and track normally require.

[Chris96Z]

If you look at a few of the threads below this one, you will see ones specifically for Heads Up, Bracket, and Grudge racing. All the rules for each will be listed there...

Miss Diva, If i come down on Friday would it be possible to leave my trailer there till Sunday's Race,( if it's ok. ) Plus, for the test/ tune part, on Sunday, can you run with out mufflers, i never heard nothing back. JR1.
