If
you are a member of a car club or other organization interested
in racing at the Houston Motorsports Park Dragstrip then we may
have just the thing your looking for. Our Street Legal Drags program
is designed to give the ordinary "off the street" hobby
racer a place to race. Since most street racers are not members
of clubs, we try to promote an organized, safe and friendly atmosphere
that demonstrates the advantages of racing at an NHRA track. And
that includes having a Special Feature at our events.
In order for us to run a program that includes a Special Feature,
we have developed the following guidelines:
Any
club or organization wishing to become the feature of one of our
events must first select an available date from our calendar and
submit a "Request for Special Feature Event Date" form
to this office.
The
type of program must be approved.
Does your
club plan to run an eliminator bracket? How many entries? Qualified
or invitational? Match races only? Open to outside entries?
Are you running a regional or national series? Will you have
a Club -vs- Club race? Etc.
Your
club is responsible for coordination of your program.
Although
a club may be "featured" on one of our race dates,
the events are still run the same as they would be without a
featured club. That means that the emphasis is placed on the
"street legal" cause of offering the illegal street
racer a place to race. While we allow clubs to be featured,
we mainly cater to the ordinary amateur racer off the street.
Club newsletters
may be used to promote a featured event. All events must be
described as a Houston Motorsports Park Dragstrip event that
"features" a club or organization.
Our
website will promote your club as a "Special Feature"
for an event date. A special area will be designated for clubs.
No guarantees are made as to how many runs each car will make
but we will try to accommodate your clubs' program.
HMP
will provide a designated tech inspector. Your club should provide
a technical expert to assist our tech inspector.
If
you have a club or organization that may want to participate,
call us for more details at (281) 458-1972 or E-Mail:
HoustonMotorspts@aol.com. We would be happy to
have your club featured at the Houston Motorsports Park Dragstrip. |
