Default Moroso on Sat.14

I'm goin with a pal, and neither of us have ever been to a track. I read through Moroso's website, but I still have a few questions. Do I need to join one of the tourneys to run my car just to get times? Or can I pay an entrance fee and just run my car several times? What do I need to qualify for Jr. Dragsters?

And is there anything important I should know??

Thanks a lot, like I said I've never been to the track.

I went there once and just paid the entry fee for time trials.
They won't let you run with shorts on, so make sure you have a pair of sweats and you'll need a helmet if you run in the 13s.

You'd need one of these.




I've never run there on the weekend. Only have gone on Wed./Fri. night test-n-tune.
If your car lopes, they get under to see if you have a DS safety loop. That's about all.
Lie on your entry card. I never wrote more than 350hp.
Take a Snell 95+ approved helmet.

Oh, and show up when they open for some good runs while the track is still good.
After 40 minutes, it all goes to hell, and the ricers show up.

Sat the 14th is not a test and tune so you will not be able to run unless you are in the bracket race. Go the friday the 13th which is a test and tune open to all 15 bucks to run and 12 or 13 to watch dont remember off hand I always RACE.

When does it open on firday night? I'll try to get there early but it's about 90 minutes away.

And can I get a helmet at the track? how much do they cost?

Thanks a lot.
