Pit Vehicle Question?

Ed Carpenter · 03-02-2011, 04:35 PM

ok what's the deal if you have a scooter etc at a NHRA divisional race. Do I have to register it or something? Thanks for the info. Ed

Yes.

My understanding, there is a form you fill out at your very 1st event of the year at any NHRA track. There is a $10 fee for the sticker they will give you. It's good at any NHRA track for the 2011 season.

Doesn't matter if your scooter/atv/golf cart has proper insurance or not.

Thought that was for National only.?

The form is on our D5 web page...and states, "Not valid at NHRA National Events"

Didn't see anything on Div 3 web yet.
Sounds like just another way to get $10. from everyone.......and the enhancements just keep on coming.

This is nothing new. I've been doing this at least the last two years. I don't believe they are valid for national events. You can usually get them at the gate when you get your tech card for your first race of the year.

Thx.

I know the National event tracks have a decal. It is good for year and is distributed with an entry. I have insurance on my scooter. In D4 last year they were trying to get money for a sticker. I asked if it would be good at any division race and was told that it was not. I declined to pay. I don't think it served any purpose other than a money grab.
I think that if the tracks want to limit the number of non racer traffic, a sticker once a year that is included in the entry would be appropriate. Heck, if the DDs got together and honored any division's sticker, I think I could take it, but when you race 2-3 divisions, it seems ridiculous to have to pay at each one.
