Breakfast will be served starting at 8am

 

Pit Gates will open at 8 am 

 

Pill draw for starting position in your heat race will end at 2:30pm.  If you arrive after that time you will go to the last position in the first available heat race and you will not be allowed any passing points.

 

There will be a mandatory drivers meeting at 3:00pm in the paddock area between the garage and the pit bleachers

 

There will be a competition red at the first caution between laps 20 and 30 in the A main.  You will be instructed to exit the track and enter the paddock area.  You will have 5 minutes to service the car and driver.  You can not replace anything on your car!  Do not attempt to replace a shock, radius rod, torsion stop, tire, etc...  You can remove any damaged piece, such as a front wing, but you cannot replace it!  The only exception is wheel spacers, you will be allowed to add spacers to the rear axle of your car.  You can have as much pit crew help as needed but the pit crew cannot enter the paddock area until they are instructed to. 

 

 

You must be prestaged in your starting position for your race prior to the end of the preceding race or you go to the rear of your race and will receive no passing points up to your original starting position. 

 

There will be Super 600 Showdown Tshirts, 600 Speedweek T-Shirts, LANCO shirts and items,and Super 600 Showdown Program books available.

 

The race officials will be looking at two primary calls.  First is any intentional hitting of any race car.  Punishment could be black- flagged for that event to disbarment from any future MicroRacing.com events.  Second, you will notice that LANCO has progressive banking, meaning the bottom is flat while the top is steeply banked.  If you are running the bottom, you need to be aware that there will be someone running the top and you need to let a racing groove for them.  If you have not cleared the topside car and run them into the wall you will be black-flagged.  This is your warning!  Most of the accidents that I have witnessed at LANCO come from this scenario.  

 

Do not steal the directional signs to the track until after the event.  Bruce Buckwalter from BDB Graphics has donated the signs for the event. 

 

Delco Signs has donated the Winners Check

 

Lindas Speedway will allow any race team to camp in their spectator parking lot on Fri nite.  There is no water or electric hookup available.  If you arrive at LANCO Fri nite the pits will be closed but you can park in the spectator parking area.  Be forewarned, if it has rained heavily on Fri do not attempt to camp at LANCO in the spectator area!  It can get very muddy!  ABSOLUTELY NO DRINKING OR NOISE!!!!  Do not ruin the generosity of Lindas or LANCO in making their facility available.   

 

Are you the fastest computer racer?  Dasah's Sprint Car Simulator will be here! 

 

You will have 1 hot lap sessions, beginning at 3:30pm you will have your hot lap session in the order of the heat race you are participating in. If time permits we will look at another hot-lap session.

 

There will be a meeting with all A main participants prior to the A Main.

 

All cars will be weighed after their heat races.

 

Lanco has a maximum width for the rear of 64", any width wheel can be used.  Their scale is set up to accommodate a 64" width, make sure you fit on the scale before you race.  

 

All A Main cars will be weighed after the race.

 

There are no alternates for any of the mains.

 

The crossover method will be used for all complete restarts.

 

We will be utilizing a cone for single file restarts along the backstretch between the flag and the light pole.

 

As you enter the pit gate, you will be instructed to have everyone leave the vehicle but the driver.  Have your trailer unlocked for inspection.  You will go to the pit shack and buy your pit pass and then stay inside the pit area until your rig pulls into the pit spot.

 

Alan Shepherd will be presenting the invocation for the event this year!

 

We are looking for somebody to sing the National Anthem.
