Pro Comp 2009
This class caters to no box bracket and street cars running
10.50 and slower. You get 3 qualifying attempts on Saturday,
a 4th qualifying attempt on Sunday and eliminations on
Sunday. You don't need to be at the track Saturday to race
on Sunday. Rules are pretty simple and are as follows:
Class Description
- The Open Comp class was designed for all vehicles and
trucks that run slower than 10.50 seconds in the 1/4 mile.
Dragsters, Altered & Motorcycles are not permitted. Open
exhaust and vehicle lettering/decals permitted. The "Open
Comp" class will be run on an Open Comp format with a
1-tenth (1/10th) breakout. What this means is, you get 4
rounds of qualifying(3 Saturday and 1 Sunday). You choose
your dial-in for eliminations. This time will be yours
throughout eliminations (IT DOES NOT CHANGE).
Qualifying*
The best reaction time is the #1 qualifier, you will then be
put on a Sportsman ladder for eliminations. *There will be 1
(one) qualifying session on Sunday morning of each event for
Open Comp and Pro Comp only. Racers in these classes will
not be required to qualify on Saturday if they so choose.
All racers will be required to pay the same entry fee
regardless of whether they participate in one or two days of
the event.
Class Guidelines
Rules & Regulations
- Open Comp is based on an Open Comp format, which uses a "
5/10ths Pro Tree" start system. Any "door slammer-type"
vehicle is permitted. Any modifications, any tires, any
vehicle weight, or power adders are permitted. Trans-brakes
and 2-steps are permitted. Delay boxes, Throttle-stop,
crossover boxes, or any "reaction-time related" electronic
aids strictly prohibited.
E.T. Limits
- The fastest qualifying ET permitted in the Open Comp class
is 10.50. Any qualifying pass faster than 10.50 will be
disqualified and will not count. Competitor will be
permitted to requalify (if additional qualifying rounds are
left) slower than 10.50. Competition will be regulated under
standard IHRA "First or Worst" competition policy during
qualifying and eliminations.
Deep Staging
- Deep staging is permitted, however not advocated. If you
plan to Deep Stage it is strongly recommended that you
boldly display the words DEEP on all four windows, in plain
view of the starter. It is always the driver's
responsibility to stage the vehicle prior to the tree being
activated. In any event, the driver must be prepared to
leave as soon as the final stage light is lit.
- A competitor with the words DEEP displayed on the window
is not necessarily obligated to deep stage. As well, the
starter is not necessarily obligated to wait on a driver to
deep stage, even if the words DEEP are displayed on the
vehicle. All drivers must be prepared to leave as soon as
the final stage light is lit.
Tow Vehicles
- Open Comp does not allow tow vehicles of any sort in the
staging lanes. You can tow your vehicle back to the pits at
the conclusion of your run after exiting the racing surface.
