                                RACERS GUIDE TAKE TIME TO READ!!
bulletPick up your Driver Information Card at Front Gate.
bulletFill out your driver info. card completely and take to Tower.
bulletFind yourself a pit space and listen for your class to be called.          This could be a good time to relax, or maybe take a look around, go to the concession stand or just visit with some of the really nice people that race at Centerville Dragway!!
bulletWhen you class is called, go to the Staging lanes and line up for your time trial. The time trials are ran in sessions and each racer gets 1 pass per session only. Please be sure and bring your punch time trial card to staging area!!
bulletDo not get back in line until you class is called for the next session.
bulletWe usually call: Street- Pro No E- Super Pro-E.T. Bike- Jr. Dragsters if we are running a Special such as Mopars then we call them first.
bulletTrack official will motion you onto the track. Cars with slicks can back into the water boxes for a burnout. Cars with treaded tires usually don't back into the water boxes. (It can actually make traction worse.)
bulletAfter you have heated your tires roll slowly towards the starting line until Pre-stage light (very top bulb on tree in you lane) is on. Inch your vehicle slowly forward until you stage light comes on. When both racers are staged the tree will count down to the Green. Most racers leave on the 2nd or 3rd Amber light, depending on the reaction of you and your vehicle. .000 Reaction time is perfect on our Newly updated Accutime System.

 

bulletYou are Drag Racing!! Stay in the center of your lane unless you have problems with your vehicle, then move to the outside edge of the race track and stop. If no problems exist always clear racing surface before you stop!!
bulletWhen you pass the finish line slow your vehicle and turn right at the end of track. Stop at the E>T. Shack for your Time Slip. Drive slowly back to your Pit area and wait for your class to be called for the next  round of time trials.
bulletDuring Eliminations all vehicles must display a Dial-N on the right side of the windshield and the passenger door window. Dial-N must be neat and easily Read.  Please use Dial N polish that The Track Recommends!!  Refrain from using Blue or Red because it is hard to see!!
bulletFirst  or 2nd round buy backs in each class has been voted on Losers can re-enter  ( 1 time) 1st or 2nd round by going to the tower immediately. 
bulletLook your cars over food: Check the Overflow, Tighten Lug Nuts, and anything that needs to be secured. If you are driving a Pick up remove all debris that will get on the track. Make sure tires are clean. All these factors help in speeding up the process of the Race Day.
bulletIF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS JUST ASK  A TRACK OFFICIAL AND HE WILL BE GLAD TO HELP!!! GOOD LUCK AND HAVE A GREAT TIME AT CENTERVILLE DRAGWAY

 

                     GENERAL RACE REGULATIONS

        On any run of a handicap eliminator if both cars break out, the car breaking out the least will be declared the winner. If both cars break out the same amount, the "First to Finish" shall declare the winner.

        In Rare cases a Double Break Out can be so close that the print out will show both drivers breaking out the same amount. When this happens the ACCUTIME system will compute the numbers much farther than the printed sheet can display, and will award the win to the proper lane.

Centerville uses Auto Start on all classes except Jr.s Timer will be activated when both racers are pre-staged but timer will not start until 3 bulbs are on ( Both pre stage lites and 1 stage lite) Settings may vary but burn down time is usually 10-15 sec. Burn down timer starts when 3 lites are on and times how long it takes the 2nd car to stage. If time exceeds the settings before 2nd car stages an automatic Red lite will result. The stage to start timer begins when both cars are staged and is the time between the 2nd stages and the tree countdown. The stage to start setting varies but is usually between 1.2 sec and 2 seconds.

          

BYE RUNS: Bye Runs are earned by the following: 1st Round bye goes to $1 Jackpot winners from time trials. After 1st Round byes go to Best package( winning run that is closest to a perfect run) Package is figured by the computer and must be a green lite above the dial in run. Bye run may have to race an opponent if an even ## of cars. Bye runs opponent in this case will be the last car left after the pairing process and bye holder will get lane choice. If bye holder races and wins he will carry bye to next rd. If by holder loses in a bye back rd. he can re –earn the bye in a later rd. Only 1 bye run per racer with the following exception: All racers left have already had 1 bye then Best package will award the 2nd bye. Example: 3 cars with all having had a bye then driver with Best Package from previous round will get bye to the final.

            No Traction compound Permitted. NO HOLDING  OF CARS IN   WATER BOX ALLOWED IN ANY EVENT!

 All Machines will be called to the staging area  by the announcer. Only one call is required. A Reasonable amount of time after the first call, any machine not appearing in the Staging Area will be subject to disqualification. Any car left unattended in the staging lanes may be disqualified.

            Once a car reaches the front  of the staging lanes for a run, it must be prepared to fire and race.

           No Dial-N may be changed after car has left the head of Staging.

    No changing of Vehicle or Driver once in Eliminations.

            Failure to stage when so instructed by the starter or over staging, or leaving the starting line before the start system is activated will result in no "E.T." allowed for that run, or disqualification.

Any machine touching any marker line during the measured race will be disqualified.

        In determining lane boundary crossing violations, it is considered a disqualification when any portion of  a tire touches the painted line surface. Contact with the guard railing, barriers, or any other track fixture (i.e. "Christmas tree,"  "Timing  equipment, cones, ect) is ground for disqualification.

        In situations where a driver is making a single run in eliminations he is considered the automatic winner once he stages under power and receives the start.

 Lane Boundary line crossing and Red light disqualification rules do not apply on single runs.

        All contestants must TURN OFF AT THE END OF THE STRIP ( RIGHT LANE TURNS 1ST PLEASE DO NOT CUT ANYONE OFF)

Please  KEEP YOUR SPEED TO A MINIMUM ON THE RETURN ROAD. VIOLATION WILL RESULT IN DISQUALIFICATION.

        All Mini bikes, 2 and 4 wheel cycles must be operated in a safe and responsible manner at all times. All cycles drivers MUST have a valid drivers license from their state of residence. All cycles must display the race car Number. Limit of one person per cycle. The driver of the race car will be held accountable for the enforcement of all rules in this section and will be subject to disqualification for any violations.

        The authority of race directors to make decisions shall include and cover every facet of any kind in connection with the track, points system, conduct of the race, completion, behavior of contestants, and shall include the right to suspend, bar, expel, or disqualify without liability of any kind or nature.

Drag Racing Gone Bad…

 

Have you ever heard of a transmission exploding? A Mopar Torqueflite 727 can and for many reasons will. This is my story of why friends shouldn’t let friends race without a transmission safety shield. I love Mopars, but all good things have a dark side when accidents happen, just as they did on April 1st 2007, at the Centerville Drag Way in Centerville AR. My friend, Oscar Mathew, had his life changed forever. It started out at 7:30 am driving over three hours to the track. My wife, Oscar and I joked and talked all the way there. Oscar and I have been racing together for over thirty years.

 

Earlier this year, Oscar, other friends and I went to a SEMA show in Indiana. We had a discussion about investing in a transmission safety shield for our cars. Only two of us purchased shields that day. Oscar was going to buy one after this race. He had just put lower gears in his rear end and wanted to try them out.

 

 I jokingly entered my everyday driver, 2002 Dodge Ram, into the race. We both were in line to race when Oscar had me line up in front of him. My wife was at the starting line watching us. I did my burn out and pulled up to the tree. I wanted to practice my reaction times. As I waited for my time slip, an announcement came thru the radio requesting an ambulance for a driver. I looked behind me and noticed Oscar hadn’t come through yet. So I drove back up to the staging lanes and I noticed my wife running towards me. I knew something was wrong. She was yelling that something happened to Oscar on the starting line. I ran out onto the track, pieces were scattered around Oscar’s 1968 Plymouth Valiant. The pieces were no bigger than two inches. As I approached the car, the track staff was giving Oscar oxygen. They had already called for an ambulance. I thought the worst, his heart. But then I saw the inside of the car. The transmission had exploded. It looked like a bomb had gone off. Shrapnel had gone thru the dash and hit the windshield. The gas pedal was gone. The brake pedal was bent to the left four inches. The floor-board had a hole big enough to put a watermelon through it.

 

                At the hospital, they could not do reconstructive surgery. Oscar has lost close to half of his foot.  I believe because God was with him it wasn’t worse. He had a thick pad and carpet on the floor that restricted the metal from coming up in his leg area or even worse his chest or head.

 

                Knowing Oscar, he will work hard to be back in his racecar. So Oscar and I encourage you not to wait until tomorrow to invest in a transmission safety shield. No one is invincible; it’s all about being safe and having fun. It could save your life.

 

                I would like to say “Thank you” to the Centerville Drag way staff and racers. They helped me load up Oscar’s racecar and everything else. They also kept in contact with the hospital. Not only did they go above and beyond, but also they gave from their hearts collecting over $700.00 to give to Oscar for expenses. God Bless Centerville Drag Way a racetrack with heart.

 

“Friends shouldn’t let friends race without a transmission safety shield

Sincerely, Tim Puryear   Bentonville, AR
