I'll post the details of it below. In order for you to race in the morning part you <u>MUST</u> go to http://www.tennesspeed.net and register to the forums. We are keeping a list of all members and only those on the list will be able to race in the morning part and competitions. That afternoon (1 to 4) it'll be open to the general public.
TENNESSPEED DAY 2004
Saturday, May 8th
9:00am - 4:00pm
Beech Bend Raceway - Bowling Green, Kentucky
Tennesspeed.net is proud to announce it's Second Annual track day event at Beech Bend Raceway in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Racing will be from 9:00am until 4:00pm with a lunch break at noon.
Gate Fees:
$40.00 per race vehicle and driver
$10.00 per spectator
Children under the age of 10 get in free
Schedule Of Events:
8:00am gates open - racers proceed to tech sheds
9:00am organized races for Tennesspeed members only
12:00pm we break for lunch and track re-prep
1:00pm races resume, non-members welcome to participate
4:00pm racing comes to an end
4:15-4:30pm awards ceremony
You may elect to stay around after the Tennesspeed Day event for Beech Bend's usual Saturday night races. However, you will have to pay their gate fee if you participate.
Beech Bend's Saturday night events do adhere to IHRA tech guidelines, so keep that in mind if you want to race at night.
Morning Race Events:
The following organized racing events will be held in the morning. Only Tennesspeed members will be allowed to participate and you may participate in one or more class if you wish.
Fastest front wheel drive -- DOT legal tires
Fastest front wheel drive -- Slicks
Fastest rear wheel drive -- DOT legal tires
Fastest rear wheel drive -- Slicks
Fastest street-bike motorcycle -- DOT legal tires only
Afternoon Race Events:
Members and non-members alike will be racing after the lunch break, but we will be scheduling some of the lane arrangements so that our organized grudge matches can be held.
Tennesspeed Grudge Matches
Heads up racing for all comers
Technical Requirements:
We strongly urge you all to follow NHRA race guidelines as specified for your class of vehicle (E/T ratings). Tennesspeed and Beech Bend staff will be conducting tech inspections and basically will hit the high points. We did not refuse anyone the opportunity to race last year and likely won't this year either unless a vehicle poses a significant safety risk.
Here are the things that we absolutely will require of all racers...
Helmets for anyone running 10 second runs or faster
Helmets for all motorcycle racers
Vehicles may not be leaking any fluids
Vehicles may not have any loose body panels
All racers must wear long pants and proper footwear. No sandles.
Street driven vehicles must have proof of insurance
Beech Bend track officials reserve the right to deny you the opportunity to race if they feel that any other major safety violation is present.
Ultimately, this is their facility that we are using so we all have to obey their rules. We didn't see anything like that happen last year, but they do have the right to override any of the requirements listed above.
