.

An NHRA or IHRA track. Very easy. Forms are online, get the Dr. thing done & go make pass' on a day they allow license runs.

Oh yea, make sure you have or they have 2 drivers with your license or higher there or they won't count the runs.

Print off the form at www.nhra.com, get a physical, have a car legal to run in the 9's, and then go to the track. Might want to know beforehand what is a good day to go.

I'm doing my license runs now but had to stop since I have to swap my shortblock.

you go to the doctor and he'll stick his finger up your butt and say you're good to go

he may check a few other things out too, then sign off on your physical form

If your dentist was hot and female, thats cool, if she was either ugly or a guy, then not cool.
