Robz and I will be hosting a rental at Atco on Friday, 9/16/11. We are looking for 10-12 cars. This will be a good time to iron out all of the kinks and work on the finer points to lower those ETs. Rob and I will be available to assist anyone who would like some help. Details are to follow.

Here's a few things we will be going over at the meeting to have a fun and safe day.
1. Specific lanes for certain tires
2. Burnout box swept and maintained, water control, water placement (behind wall), burnouts in right place
3. One lane at a time unless a heads up prearranged race
4. No sitting on walls and no crowding burnout and launch area, stay behind barriers
5. If you Left Before 3rd Amber, you will not get a timeslip
6. If you are unsure about anything, stop and ask. Rentals are the place to redo things. If you screw something up, don't panic, stop and ask for help. Don't compound one mistake with several others and risk hurting your car, yourself, or someone else.
7. If you need assistance ask for help.
8. You cannot run unless you are fully paid, you have filled out a tech card and signed the back, and we are cleared to take passes.
9. Place any unused number you wish on the driver’s side of the car preferably on the back window.
10. Safety first. Make sure you have all the proper gear needed and have your belts on and windows up from burnout all the way until return road.
11. Timeslips will be printed out right after your pass the traps in the center of the drag strip by the starting line. If you care about it you need to get it or have someone get it for you otherwise it may get discarded. No one is responsible for getting you your timeslip. Also please be careful when retrieving your timeslip because you may have to cross in front of a car getting ready to launch. Proceed with caution and respect for other racers.
12. All kids need to be behind fences. Ask about ages if you bring kids.
13. As always pull off to the side immediately if you notice anything wrong with your vehicle during a pass.
14. Only personnel performing work, assisting a driver, or videotaping are allowed in front of the wall.
15. Must have a sticker placed on vehicle to run.

As previously stated, we would like everyone to arrive early and have at meeting at 8:45. (The best air will be first thing in the morning. )
See everyone on Friday.

Not sure, never took the time to make a racing schedule this year. I'm thinking there's a NMCA LSX event around that time?

I was thinking to just throw Rob in the driver's seat to lower your ET.

Yes, this might be the very same weekend as the Holley LS Fest in Bowling Green....the big LSX Shootout/NMCA World Finals is roughly 3 weeks later in Indianapolis.
