NVMC Drag Day June 26th @ Mason Dixon

Ok folks. For those that want a great opportunity to learn how to drag race or just want to get more seat time, this is the PERFECT place to do it. This is a 4 hour private track rental(8am-12pm). All the runs you could possibly want.

You DO NOT have to be a NVMC member to go to this rental. If you are interested please send money via Paypal to Enforcir@gmail.com. It is $52.00 a vehicle. Cyril is his name. He is the President of NVMC. We are short on numbers and need the money ASAP to makes this happen.

PLEASE!!! It's one hell of a good time!


Any questions, please let me know.

I'd love to go, but they strictly enforce the rules. :/

Interesting...ive always read on the NVMC site about all cars must meet the rules for the ET they run, yadda yadda yadda.

Brian your car is slow remember so it shouldn't be an issue.

Even slow cars must follow the rules!

13.99 1/4-mile (8.59 1/8-mile) or quicker:

-A driveshaft safety loop is required when you run slicks (not drag radials or street tires). With street tires or drag radials, no loop is required until 11.49 1/4-mile (7.35 1/8-mile) and faster.

-A helmet (closed face or open) is required with a minimum Snell K98 or M2000/SA2000 rating. Helmets last 12 years from their rating date (example a Snell 2005 would be good until 2017). Shield is not required.
Dang.....guess I better not even bother trying to go 11.49 or quicker!

11.49 1/4-mile (7.35 1/8-mile) or quicker:

-A 5-point minimum roll bar on a fixed roof car (t-tops okay as well if in place while racing) from 11.49 to 11.00 (7.00 1/8-mile). If the hardtop / t-top car has un-altered floors, firewall and frame rails (wheel tubs are okay), then the 5-point roll bar is good til 10.00 1/4 mile (6.40 1/8-mile). Convertibles require the 5-point bar from 13.49 (8.25 1/8-mile to 11.00 (7.00 1/8-mile). The rollbar must be constructed of minimum 1 ¾ inch o.d. x .118 inch wall mild steel tubing, or 1 ¾ x .083 chrome moly tubing. The roll bar can be bolted or welded to the floor, see diagram for specs. Roll bar must be padded anywhere the driver's helmet may contact it while in the driving position.


The 5-points are:
-Main hoop; 2 "down bars" (bars that go from the main hoop rearward to the trunk floor/hatch area. These can be straight or bent like a "package tray" style, search for photos); Welded crossbar for belts (can't be removable); Driver side door bar (can be a swing-out. Many put a passenger's side bar in as well (6-point) because it strengthens the car on both sides, but if you have subframe connectors the difference may be minimal).

-Protective Clothing (SFI jacket with a 3.2A/1 rating, no expiration date)

-5 point harness (up to date, they must be replaced or re-certified every 2 years)

-SFI-approved flywheel and/or clutch (no expiration date)

-Screw-in valve stems

-No tint allowed on window except factory

Brian, you should be fine. Bring it out. I ran 13.5s and didnt wear a helmet. If they say something you can borrow mine. Bring your ass!

That would be cool! Any way you could commit? We are a few numbers short of the required 30 to make it happen......

BTW, you may want to alert them that 'inviroment' is really spelled 'environment'.
