Why: It's fun! The track was built in the '60s, literally saved from a burn pile, and resurrected last fall. It provides a serious driving challenge with lap times in the low 4 second range. This event is our celebration of FastLane Raceway's first year. Entry fees will be $15 per class. There will be no charge for practice time on Friday or Saturday for race participants.
Race Procedures: Because of the unique facility and track configurations, conventional turn marshalling is not practical. We will use track calls, with interrupted power & timing when a car de-slots. On the third de-slot within a heat for a single racer, that car is removed. When the next de-slot occurs, the removed car is returned to the track. If that racer de-slots again during that heat, his car is removed, until the next track call. This procedure has produced good close racing, which is a lot of fun. We will run 3 minute heats with initial lane assignments by random computer selection.
