Any news on another drag rental day?

[NinjaNick]

I'd like to have a track all to myself with friends and board members. I never tried to make one in the past but would really like to this year if you're doing any.

Any this year or will I have to wait until next year?

Thanks.

This summer. I'll get the info to you.

National Trail Raceway - Hebron, Ohio (about 25 minutes east of Columbus off of US40)

Friday, June 18th, 2010

Rain date: Friday, June 25th, 2010

9am-5pm w/ free admission to Friday Night Street Fights at NTR, 6-11pm

Gates open at 8am

Max of 100 vehicles

Price:

NTR has increased their pricing for 2010 so CR has increased ours appropriately:

$31 for Senior Members

$41 for regular members and the public

Non-refundable unless the event is canceled.

Spectators are FREE!

Gates and Entry:

Gates will open at 8AM and racing is from 9AM to 5PM. We will be on the east side of the track, in the staging area/parking lot. Use the east gate and follow the road around to the left.

If you are not pre-registered you may still pay at the event if there are spots left. The fee is $60 CASH and you must find a CR representative (Brian "V8 BEAST" or Anthony "DarkFormula") to take the money and tech you in. No one else will be doing day-of registrations, you must see one of them. No cash, no race.

Tech:

Tech is from 8-10AM in the staging lanes, and all registrants will be required to sign a waiver not holding National Trail Raceway or Columbus Racing responsible for liability. We're looking for no leaks, nothing falling off, etc. You must wear long pants and a shirt with sleeves, t-shirts are fine. A Snell/DOT approved helmet is also required if you're running 13.99 or quicker. Cars 11.99 and quicker should have a all NHRA mandated safety equipment, including a roll cage for 11.49 or quicker. All vehicles will be marked after tech for record-keeping and verification reasons. You will not be able to race if you're not teched in; if you deliberately try to race without tech you will be ejected from the track and forfeit your registration money. Trails staff will be watching. Should you arrive after 10am it's your responsibility to track down a CR representative to tech you in.

Motorcycles must have a Snell/DOT helmet with full shield, full-sleeve protective jacket, long pants, and over-the-ankle-shoes. If your motorcycle is quicker than 10.00 or faster than 120mph, you WILL need full protective gear, boots and a kill switch. It's suicide not to. Do not try and get around this, if you're busted, we may eject you from the event and you will forfeit your registration money.

Racing:

We will be utilizing the staging lanes on the north side of the track that exit under the tower. Please be courteous and orderly to other drivers. The north side (left two lanes) of the track are for ALL VEHICLES ALL TIRES, including radials, drag radials, and slicks. The south side (right two lanes) are for SLICK TIRE/DOT SLICK/DRAG RADIAL VEHICLES ONLY, including motorcycles ON SLICKS.

Bikes and cars have been asked by NTR to refrain from running heads-up for safety reasons. I.E; cars versus cars and bikes versus bikes only.

At this time we're still debating on a need for water box volunteers, although NTR is covering all other staffing positions.

If you break and spill fluids or damage the track, you are responsible for the clean-up fees and/or repairs. In the case this occurs, please see Brian aka V8 BEAST ASAP.

End of Day:

NTR has allowed us the ability to stay for their Friday Night Street Fights event after our event, which starts at 6pm and runs until 11pm. If you've paid for a CR registration, admittance to the NTR event is free.

Isn't there one with bikes only and mainly OR members?

[Steve Butters]

guess i just havent been around long enough, my bad

[NinjaNick]

Oh I don't know for sure man. I just remember pictures of the track pretty empty with OR members racing.

[conn-e-rot]

Sounds fun

[NinjaNick]

This summer. I'll get the info to you.

Thanks homes.

[Steve Butters]

after using the search feature on this site, it seems like all the drag rentals were combined with columbusracing and buckeyegoats....i could be wrong, but i didnt think OR had their own rental at drag strips

[Steve Butters]

Thanks homes.

if you check "Search" all the drag days he posted before, are all copy paste from CRs home page, like what i put up earlier lol...

[NinjaNick]

Ok, I knew there was something, but wasn't quite sure. Thanks.

[Steve Butters]

thats all i could find with search....probably only saw pics posted of bikes since its OR, probably just didnt take many car pics

the bikes and cars cant run heads up, so its always bike vs bike....theres usually a decent turnout of bikes

[RSVDon]

Ahh yes, CR/BG/OR drag day. I probably saw half of you there before I was ever even on this site. I know I saw BornSinner and some other people. There was a smokin' blonde chick on a Busa' at that drag day in black leathers. Good times.

[NinjaNick]

Yeah, I don't trust car enthusiasts.
