Ignorance on any rule and/or guideline does NOT excuse or justify for being out of compliance, all violations (intentional or not) will be subject to and handle by proper series action.

6.  2008 rules will apply for 2009 ARA Trucks.  If you are a non-ARA truck and you are running our Hoosier approved tire you must weigh 3100 lbs and have left percentage of 56 and nose percentage of 55.

 Stay posted to the website for further information throughout the off season.

 Please call Stu 317-938-8527 if you have any questions about the 2009 rules or for information.

 

We are in the process of simplifying the rules for the 305 motors.  New information will be posted soon.

 

Please note the following rule additions...
1. We will be enforcing a 3:10 rule in the series effective August 2, 2008.
2.  If your team has radios and you have a spotter, at least one spotter from each team will be required to be on top of the tower anytime your race vehicle is on the track.  There will be no more single spotting from the pit area.  If you are the caught spotting from the pits, your driver will be asked to pull off the track. (Note: Spotters will be mandatory in 2009)
3.  Roll call will be taken and EVERY driver must be on time and attend the drivers meeting.  If you are not at the drivers meeting you will start on the tail end of the field.
