Child Admission: Ages 11 & under FREE!
Entry Fees
Test & Tune - $30.00

I am interested. Wondering what Jackie will run in the 1/4. Granted, might be a little fun to make a little smoke too.
On a side note, is there any requirement for a helmet or the like as long as you are not exceeding the 12.0 second time? Just making sure.

Helmets are required for 1/4 mile passes below 14 seconds but not all tracks are sticklers to the rule.
You may get one or two passes below 14 seconds before they catch you at MIR but you will not be able to run all day. MIR typically follows all rules and is managed very well.

MIR on 11/15/2015
It was a beautiful day at MIR but a bit too warm for achieving best times. The air temps warmed to 60F by my first run.
Pass #1
60' 2.0x
1/8 mile 83mph
1/4 mile 13.3x at 105mph
Pass #2
60' 2.3x (spun tires)
1/8 mile ?
1/4 mile 13.5x @ 106mph
Hope to see some of you next weekend...
