The 2008 Horse Power Sales Corvette Challenge at Moroso Motorsports Park will be run under the rules and guidelines set forth by Moroso Motorsports Park and the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA).

Prizes Trophies for Winner and Runner-up at each Event. Series Champion will be crowned and invited to the Awards Banquet. Basic Safety Rules A helmet must be worn. If you do not own one, you can rent one at the track. Drivers must wear long pants and a shirt with sleeves (except where a fire jacket is required) when on the track. During the hot summer days many of us just wear shorts under gym pants and take off the gym pants between runs. Then we throw the gym pants on for the next run. Keep in mind, we are a group of Corvette drivers having fun and the track has the right to impose any rule for the safety of the participants. This paragraph is not intended to be a complete rules list but a guideline for those that are unfamiliar with drag racing rules. The rules are designed to promote Safety and Fairness. The rules for participation are as follows: Your Car: Must be a Corvette. Any year. Any model. It can be stock or highly modified, "bone to blown". Electronic Gadgets: There will be NO electronics allowed. This means: NO delay boxes may be used. NO shutter boxes may be used. NO two-steps may be used. NO trans brakes Anyone found using an electronic aiding device will be banned from running in the The Horse Power Sales Corvette Challenge for a period of no less than one (1) year. The items mentioned above are not all-inclusive but are intended as samples of electronic devices designed to give a driver an advantage over other drivers. Safety: Please read this very carefully. Participating in a Horse Power Sales Corvette Challenge drag race, or any sanctioned drag race is a PRIVILEGE - not a right. To earn and maintain the privilege of racing each driver will be required to comply with ALL safety rules. Period. Keep in mind, we are a group of Corvette drivers having fun AND the host track has the right to impose ANY rule for the safety of participants. Please also note that it is NOT the Horse Power Sales Corvette Challenge that determines what safety equipment and procedures to follow while at the track. It is the host track that makes these determinations. Please take the time to log on to the tracks website at www.morosomotorsportspark.com and familiarize yourself with THEIR safety requirements. The above information is not intended to be a complete rules list but, rather, a guideline for those that may be new to drag racing and somewhat unfamiliar with general drag racing rules. Points: All participants are eligible for points when they race. No additional fee for points is required. Points will be assigned in the following manner; 10 points for starting the event 10 points for each round won 2 extra points for winning the event 1 extra point for runner-up in the event Not too many C4's run out there. Thought I would pass the information around. There are a number of Challenges out there on the same night: Corvettes, GM (any GM car that isn't a Corvette, this is starting in Febraury), Mustangs, Trucks and Mopar. I ran the Corvette Challenge with my old 01 Z06 and am now running my Charger in the Mopar Challenge...until my 86 Vette is ready to go on the track. Then, I am going back to the Corvette Challenge. The past couple champions have been C4's. It is a great time out with great people, if you don't want to race. It is bracket racing, so you only need to run as hard as you want to. |
