i teched with the slicks off. then the guy looks in my back seat and says "you are not allowed to run on slicks on wednesday nights" so i just give my tech card and line up with street tires. yes i do have extended wheel studs. he said they started enforcing this rule as of today.

yep you ran slicks on test and tune nights. better to test your car out on that night/day because you get more runs in. Also track offical are more lay back.

That's crap! They didn't want me to run my slicks either last time I was there, but I complained about other domestics that were allowed to use them then they let me.

What fun is drag racing without slicks? Might as well race on some open streets.

Did they give a reason for not running slicks? I'll just sneak them on.

I swear I hate the officials here. One time I won my round and when i came back to the staging lanes, one of them tells me that I didn't. I showed him my slip and he looked at my # and it all matches, and he still says I didn't win. ****.

chrisCNL, how many runs do you usually get? It's written on the website that street legal vehicles may be limited to only 3 runs, though. You guys have a race car.
