10:41 AM

Today the track will be open from 10:00 - 2:00 for practice runs.  Only cars & crews that have completed the tech inspection are allowed to be on the track.  We are very excited to be done will tech inspections beings the line this morning is very long.  Practice runs allows the driver to test the track & make adjustments to the car. 

Each run is 10 laps.  It needs to be completed in 24:15.  Each car is fitted with a transponder that is started/stopped as is it crosses the wire on the track below in the picture.

 

Each crew will be recording lap times, figuring an average & relaying results to the driver via radio/blue tooth after each lap.  It is to our advantage to use the maximum amount of time per lap but not go over on time.

 

Each lap is .6 miles  

 

 10 laps = 1  complete run (6 miles)
