Umm lets see what I have answers to.
1.Helmets are available for rent,
2.I don't know specific rules but you must meet the standard NHRA rules.
3. If you want to be parked in the show area, you have to pay the show fee.
4.Yes, if you want to race all day long, you are stuck on the pit side and cannot acces the show.
Again, I don't make theese rules, the track does. I just relay them to everyone.

Oh, as far as trying to sell some crap outta your trunk, I have no problem with that, however I don't know what the track owner will say. The reason I am not having vendors is due to the fact that we may have a "space issue", and I'd rather have members cars than a vendor.

4. So if youre not racing all day long its ok to leave the pit and go elsewhere or park it out of the way. I dont think i like the idea of being stuck there all day.

I believe NHRA rules are if you run under 14.0 you need a Helmet, least thats what it was in Gateway, St. Louis.
Don't forget Longpants, and long sleaves if your racing.

There are places to park your car out of the staging lanes so you can go to other areas of the place...

I don't think the long sleeves is a necessity -- I saw plenty of guys the last time I was there with short sleeves... but then again, they weren't in some of the 10 sec cars that were there...

Jay:

This is why I suggest you start the racing after a certain time.... This way we can view all the cars in one place for awhile.... Just a suggestion...

*Something like a cocktail hour....

Well the all Rotary does take place at a certain time between 2 and 3 pm . I just figures some people would rather race all day than be in the show. This is where the comflict comes in.

My thoughts exactly! This years Rotorfest was smoking just like the sun burn on my skin.... lol... The hot sunny weather was IMO the best weather for this event...
I loved it!

Special thanks to all that worked very hard to make this day a great one.... here are a few...... Jay (turbovr6), Vosko, Martin, RotaryRocket7 and the cop from the Dukes of hazard that kept making appearances here and there, better known as Rosko Peako Train.............. Kew, Kew. Kew..... I love it, I love it!.... lol

Best one ever!
Thanks again Jay!

That was about the most fun ive had in a long time....

Just to let you all know last night on the Long Island Expressway the gasket just infront of the cat let go and although it is verrrrrry noisy the power is back.

I will be emptying the cats tonight and installing some new gaskets.

It was great to see you all and to make some new friends, I really liked the black and red FB with the fake turbo under the front bumper.....

see you all on thursday night.

Jay

ROTARYROCKET7" El presidente", if it wasnt for me we would of never gotten there . I cant beleive no one brung directions.

Im glad you cuaght up with us when we jumped on the tunnel, Chino was pointing to the left i loook and its you at the light =)

Our caravan was the nicest and stress part. I felt like a sheep hearder in the ford escape trying to keep everyone going the same way. I was in the back in the middle up front on the left on the right.


It was like a mommy watching over her lil rotary childrenz......

Brap brap brapneesss RULES
