Burn Outs: Will be done behind the starting line, with the exception of Dragsters, Altereds, Supercharged Cars, Drag Bikes, or unless directed by track management.
Time Trials: Weather permitting, our Open Time Trials typically run from 11am to 2pm. All drivers are welcome to make as many passes as they would like during this time. A minimum of two time trials is guaranteed to all drivers unless you arrive late or have a break.
Staging: Lead of staging will pull you onto the track, please wait for his signal.
We practice courtesy staging at Friendship Raceway. Please, be courteous and let your opponent pre-stage before staging your own vehicle. (After both cars are pre-staged, once one car stages, the second car has 10 seconds to stage.)
During a race, please wait to bring your car to the staging lanes until you are called. Buy-backs line up in lane 6, Winners take lanes 3 and 5.
Bye Runs: Are pulled from the first ten cars in round one. Best reaction time of each round will receive the bye run into the next round.
2 Rounds of Buy-Backs: Buy-Back are available for $10 if you lose the 1st or 2nd round of eliminations. Buy-backs will be called to staging lane 6 first, followed by winners. A buy-back will not be eligible for a bye run in the buy back round. If there is an uneven amount of cars then the last buyback car will run the first car in the second round winners.
Car Number and Dial-In: Must be on front & passenger side windows and MUST BE LARGE ENOUGH FOR THE TOWER TO READ. Dial-In numbers can be adjusted every round.
