Just had a great talk with our friends at Raceway Park! This event is going to be spectacular!
Here's some Q&A's that I just answered, and thought I should post 'em:
Q:To drag race or autocross, do I need a helmet?
A:Yes, and rentals are available for a modest fee from the Gift shop at Raceway Park (I believe $3.00)
Q:Any special classification for helmet?
A:Snell approved, although personally, if you're going to buy one, you should consider an SA2000 rated one.
Q:How about driving in shorts and T-shirt, it looks like its going to be a HOT day... Sometimes its OK to drive with shorts and no helmet, sometimes long cotton type pants, long sleeves and snell approved helmet is a must.
A:Long Pants, and at least short sleeves (no tank tops). Helmets ALWAYS mandatory.
Q:And do they allow driving RT/10 without top? I do have a Autoform top too, but would like to go *******!
A:We would suggest you put on a hardtop if you have it, although you will be able to enjoy the event with your soft-top as well. We would appreciate you bringing some type of top as this allows us to abide by NHRA rules.
Q:And can I have a spectator in the car too? I am coming with my 14 yeard old nephew, who is from Finland and least said SUPER EXITED to even see one Viper.....not to mention 40-70....
A:Spectators are welcome, and the fee is minimal. If you would like him to receive breakfast, lunch (catered) and quite a few gifts (T-shirt, key chain, dash plaque) you may want to pay the Viper spectator fee, rather than a general admission ticket. Please realize that there can be no passengers in the car while racing, but we have the entire hospitality suite, for spectators to relax and enjoy in air conditioned comfort.
