Foot Brake Brackets
We are planning to run three foot brake style bracket classes. The idea is to cover as much ground as possible, from first timer entry level in their daily driver, through the experienced driver with a well prepared bracket car.
Please keep in mind that these are general outlines for discussion. Complete rules packages will not be posted until the fall (after the East Coast Nats). Many of the points discussed will have more complete definitions as we work towards the final rules packages.
Any driver may choose to race up a catagory if they wish.
1.True Street Radial: This class is intended for the occasional track warrior/first timer/daily driver.
All four tires are limited to radial construction, non-racing designed tires. Tires must be marked with a minimum tread wear of 150 on the sidewall to be eligable for this class. No drag radial or any other "racing" radial or bias ply tires allowed.
Cars will be required to have a "full interior", "common street equipment", and all cars in this catagory must run through mufflers (this class will require mufflers at all venues regardless of local noise rules).
Suspension must be of a factory style, and are limited to bolt on type modifications, no back halved cars allowed
No drag racing or bracket aid electronics of any kind allowed
No minimum weight or limits on tire size.
2. Drag Radial: Something for the slightly more modified and experienced bracket racer.
Drive tires are limited to racing construction radial tires and any radial construction tire with a treadwear of less than 150 stamped on the sidewall. No limits on front tire size or construction.
Cars will be required to have a "full interior", "common street equipment", and all cars in this catagory must run through mufflers*.
Suspension must be of a factory style, and are limited to bolt on type modifications, no back halved cars allowed
No drag racing or bracket aid electronics of any kind allowed
No minimum weight or limits on tire size.
3. Slick/Cheater Slick: For the seriously equiped foot brake racer.
Drive tires must be bias ply construction full or DOT "slick" tires.
Back halved, ladder bar, and 4 link cars accepted.
No interior or street equipment required.
All cars in this catagory must run through mufflers*.
No drag racing or bracket aid electronics of any kind allowed
No transbrakes or two steps allowed.
No minimum weight or limits on tire size.
Points System: Keeping with our theme of having everything be simple...... 10pts for each round a car appears in, the final round is worth 20pts to appear in, and winning the final round is worth an additional 10pts
