Default Regarding Pinks All Out Etown

For all those that emailed me regarding Pinks All Out at englishtown. I guess my pull only goes so far.
I kinda figured that pinks would be rented the track fro the day and they run it.


Looks like i cant even participate in this. Kinda sucks and noise restrictions are in place.

Here is the info on Etowns website.

1. This will be a muffled event-NO EXCEPTIONS! You must have "real" mufflers with baffles. No bullet type mufflers will be accepted.

2. All NHRA rules will apply and will be enforced. Remember you must have all of your proper safety equipment, driver credentials, chassis certifications, etc. in order to participate at this event.

3. No employees, their families, sponsors, track officials, race coordinators, etc. are eligible to be chosen to race for the $10,000 and the pinks all out run-off. No special treatment will be made to anyone. Please don't ask.

4. The racer registration process will be open to the public on Sunday January 6, 2008 at 12:01am. It will be done via the special e-mail address, etownpinks@yahoogroups.com. You need join the etownpinks Yahoo Group in order for the email to be accepted. We recommend you do this in advance. All e-mails sent prior 1/6/08 @12:01am will be deleted from the process. The special e-mail address is for racer registration only. No questions will be answered.

5. All racer registrants will be taken in time order as shown on the e-mail clock. They will be numbered 1-400. The next group of 401-500 will be considered alternates.

6. All of the first group of registrants, 1-400, will receive a "phone call" from the Raceway Park Tech staff to go over all of the muffler and NHRA safety rules that will apply on July 25-26. Once we feel that you are good to participate in pinks all out, you will be invited to do so. You will still have to pass a driver and vehicle inspection once you get to Raceway Park.

7. There is mandatory information that you will have to include in your e-mail on 1/6/08. This includes full name, full address, at least 1 daytime phone #, 2 would be better. Year, make, and model of vehicle. Best ET, best MPH. If you can't fill out all of the information, you will not receive a phone call. If you can't pass the phone interview, you cannot participate on 7/25-26.

8. Do not call Raceway Park to see if you are in once registration is complete. We will let you know via a phone call sometime in January. Please, do not call us to ask. This will only slow down the process.

All Racer Tech Questions can be emailed to etowntech@yahoo.com.

Spectator tickets will be available at the gate the day of the event.

You can't participate because you are a sponsor?

Gonna be tough to have a fast field with the muffler and noise restrictions. It's my local track so I'm already set up for it but I know alot of cars aren't.
Sucks that you can't participate because you're a sponsor. Shitty rule.

Don't worry I'm gonna put a set of mufflers on and go, Not sure if I will run it n/a or spray it, thing with spraying it is it will be a bitch to change bottles if I get picked, not gonna be much fun having to deal with that, and no checkign plugs, and hotlapping... not all to keen on that spraying. N/a it won't bother me.

After getting picked as one of the underdog's @ last year's MIR event, and unfortunately not being able to run ebcause of an emmissions fitting that ejected itself and left a gaping hole right next to the head, you better believe I will be signing up, and all the bases will be covered this year, no way will that happen again, I get picked, I'm racing

He can watch the kids and video the racing. We all run mufflers anyways so it's not going to affect us at all.

I'm going to build an exhaust just for this race, what muffler is everyone running? I was thinking just a couple simple 4x9 3 inch in/out flowmaster mufflers, but I dunno how loud that will be compared to the requirments.
