I'll be there. They changed their times to 6pm - 10:30pm. http://www.coastalplainsraceway.com/dragway/

I believe they enforce helmets if you're 13.99 or faster in the 1/4 according to IHRA rules.

I've only been to Coastal Plains' Sunday test and tune and it wasn't busy at all that day, which is good for me. I can make a pass whenever I want without waiting in line. How is the Friday night event usually?

I'll be there. I'm betting it will be super busy this weekend, since it is the first friday night event of the year, and it'll be the first nice weather day of the year.

I'll be there regardless though, because it's my last opportunity to race before a long det.

Actually, I believe ALL drivers are required to wear helmets, regardless of ET's.

I have seen Marines on the track wearing thier kevlars though, and the track officials allow it. It looks ridiculous, but I guess it works.

This was only my 2nd time visiting Coastal Plains. It was packed. I could only get 3 runs in and I got there at 6pm. Ran a new best of 12.15 though.
