Dear Sir/Madam,
I understand your firm will be the provider for hazardous materials disposal at the upcoming NHRA race at Gainesville, FL. Since your website is unavailable, I need to know what we, as racers, will need to be concerned with and the costs to us because this is some sort of new way of the sanctioning body "passing the buck" along to the racers!

First of all, I always used the designated containers that the track provided to dispose of our waste oil, however as the operator of a mechanical shop, I sometimes wondered if the barrels at most tracks (not all) were a safe and approved method of containing such waste! What do we need to have at our pit area (if anything) in order to bring our waste oil (if we even have any during the race) to you for disposal or to transport back to our own shop where we have approved storage for such waste? ie: I change my oil (7-8 qts.) and filter at track ! If I bring the oil and filter to you, what is the procedure and cost?

Any further specific advise will be appreciated!

Rich Price

STILL WAITING!!
