Attention High Schools Competitors

The racing technique referred to as "sand bagging" will be prohibited at the fall Battle of the High Schools on Sunday, October 9, 2011. Sandbagging is dialing your vehicle (car, truck or bike) significantly slower than your capable elapsed time. The quickest allowable dial-in for this event is 11.50. Should your vehicle (car, truck or bike) be capable of running significantly quicker than the 11.50 standard, you would not be allowed to dial higher than 11.50. This applies to any estimated elapsed times (not just vehicles quicker than 11.50).

The rule will be applied on the sole interpretation of the race director. This policy has been instituted after discussions with officials of the NHRA and is put in place for this event because of the "novice" nature of this racing. Simply put the act is prohibited.
