The first event is 6.26.2009 at EIRT

There are 3 Events and the car with the fastest times (averaged) at 2 of the 3 events is the True Street Champ.
The final event will likely pay a large purse...(I am working with a sponsor now)

If any car runs too fast for the safety equipment and they dont let you run again we will average your fastest run with a 15 second run to get your two run average. The trick here is to be legal for the street and the sanctioning body...if you can't be then you aren't going to be the True Street Champion.

I hope to have some of us meet in Kingsville at the Hamburger place and leave from there...But not required...Just be at the track registered at both the WFO trailer for WFO Tech and then go through Track Tech. You'd have to be there early enough to get 3 time runs in before the 11 PM cut off.

Drive on whatever you want...When you present the car to WFO tech and pass the inspection - the car must run on the tires it passed tech with.

So to simplify - if the car passes WFO and Track Tech you are good!
