BASIC COURSE
GAS DRAGSTER
|
|
DAY 1
First, you will receive classroom instruction. Then there's an inspection of the track and it's facilities.
Shortly after, you'll be introduced to the cars, driving suits, helmets and will learn some of the basics of piloting.
After lunch you will be taken to the cars and will begin training on starting line, lights, burn outs, launches,
etc.
DAY 2
We start with classroom instruction. Once more in the car, you will do longer and longer runs down the track.
You will also help as crew member and receive instruction on proper handling. Once our instructors feel you are
ready, and only then, you will be allowed to perform Full Pass. We want to stress the point that only the students
that show good progress will be allowed to go beyond the short runs that make up the bulk of the class, into a
Full Pass.
CARS
All the cars are NHRA Tech Safe cars maintained
by top professional racing mechanics.
The gas dragsters are 427 and 454 cubic inch
Chevrolet engines and reach speeds over 150 M.P.H
in 8 seconds. Jr. Dragsters have the required Briggs
& Stratton engine. To insure proper safety required
by the NHRA, our students are fitted in a 3-layer fire
retardant suit and other state-of-the-art safety equipment.

LICENSE
After receiving your Certificate of Accomplishment of the
Basic 2 Day Course, you may want to apply for a NHRA License. This is not a license given to novices, due to
the extreme fast speeds of qualifying runs. Therefore your
driving skills will be carefully reviewed and you may well require
additional instruction in top speed techniques. Applications will
be accepted at the sole discretion of the chief instructor and his
crew. NHRA Standings require that you make 6 passes on two
separate days and your runs must be witnessed by Track Manager
and other NHRA licensed drivers.
