Here is some info...
It looks like its $65 for car and driver and its going to be at: Desert NHRA Sport Compact Nationals
The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Las Vegas
But best be for complete information go to http://www.nhrasportcompact.com/
Some advise:
On Saturday, you make “time trial” runs. You will run down the track with another car, but it is not a “race”. These runs are to gather data only. Using data from the time-slip you receive following each run, you determine how quick you think your car can possibly run.
On Sunday, you write this elapsed time on the windows of your car.
When you are paired with another car for eliminations, your time or “dial-in”, and the “dial-in” of your opponent’s car, are entered into the timing computer. When the starting lights are activated, the car with the slower “dial-in” is given a head start equal to the difference in dial-ins. The first car to the finish line wins, UNLESS the car goes faster than the “dial-in” written on the window. If you go faster than the time on your window, you are disqualified.
CONSISTENCY is the key to winning! So, a stone stock 17-second Corolla or Civic has just as much chance of winning as does a 9-second, turbo Supra!
