On Track Procedure:
- Attempt a burnout in the water patch under the tower when the start line is clear of the previous pairing. How you do this will depend on whether your car is front or rear wheel drive. This will help warm the tyres, and warm the crowd to you! Don't attempt to burn out in 4WD cars unless you know what you are doing.something will break!
- Roll up to the start line slowly when the starter beckons you forward. Try and stay roughly level with your opponent.
- As your front wheels reach the start line, a pair of orange bulbs will light on your side of the starting "tree" This means you are "pre-staged" and you are just inches away from being in the right position.
- Roll forward a fraction more, and another pair of orange bulbs will light below the first pair. This means that you are in the right starting position.
- When both you and your opponent have all staging lights lit, you are ready to go, so lift you engine revs, and get ready to drop the clutch.the starting tree lights will flash orange and then immediately green. Now is the time to GO! GO! GO!
- Don't worry if you mess it up- the starting official will help you do the right thing. keep an eye on him for direction.
- You can collect your timing slip from the signing on office. There is no charge for collecting your print-outs
