Anything scheduled for Friday night? Last years F-body vs Mustang was fun. My firebird fits into 3 classes. Can I run multi classes on Saturday? Is deep staging permitted in the index and bracket classes?

I'm not sure about your other questions, but deep staging is permitted in both bracket and index classes.

1) We are planning on doing the Friday night race again, but haven't confirmed it yet, which is why it's not post.
2) Yes, a few of us are planning to run brackets and index classes. but you need to make sure you can hotlap the car.
3) Deep staging is allow, we are using Autostart and NHRA deep stage rules as far as it's up to the driver to get in, The tree will not be held.

No, not this year. We have tried it several times, and never had more than a couple of cars sign up, even when offering several hundred dollars in prize money (still small change compared to some events, I know, but it's what we have to work with).

Thanks for the info.
Friday night last year was a lot of fun. I'm hoping to do a repete this year.
Formula has an electric waterpump with a manual switch for the pump and fans. Round robin isn't a problem for the car. It's use to running double classes.
I'm use to deep staging with the current Div 1 rules. I have no problem doing the deep stage slide.

I know i have brought this up before, but can you get the track to open up earlier than the 10:00 am time. IF the weather is really good you'll have to get there quite early to get in line and then hope it moves along without too much of a jam up at the pay booths. Just a thought.

Only if there are test & tunes lanes, which we need Melissa to confirm. Not in our event.

Assuming there is T&T yes. I believe there will be buybacks as well.

No open fires. Small grills are ok if you don't sell food. I just checked with Melissa.
