3. Pull jr thru water
4. push jr back thru water
5. Do burnout
6. push Jr back
7. Do dry hop
8. Push jr back
9. Turn the screws for 30 secs on carb
10. Guide jr to beams
11. point to jr and give fist pump
12. Stand in the middle of track the entire pass so jr behind has to wait

That about sums it up -- I probably missed a few


NHRA please DO SOMETHING
If you have a child or grandchild involved you like it. If not, most hate it. My son raced them in 1992 when they first arrived. I had quit racing but when they came out I got pulled back in. My granddaughter races them now so I like them again. My son is 35 now and STILL races and is a race promoter. The jr system works and NHRA got it right on that program. My opinion is 5yr old is awful young though. Darren, you forgot about the step where the parent removes the Velcro slick covers before the burn-out.
