Club Meetings

Club Meetings will now be held at the Pennsville VFW 171 S. Broadway, Pennsville, NJ 08070  

Jim's Notes: 

We will be cracking down on the use of Raceceivers every one should be getting them figured out by now. It looked like maybe a few more cars had them on and working.

From now on Raceceivers must be within the car turned on, ear phones in your ear, and on the proper channel.  If the Race Director cannot tell you what to do, you will be pulled into the infield.  We will check that the Raceceiver is on, and on the proper channel and in your ear. If not, you will be put into the infield. Then if you are checked you must go to the Scale House at the end of the race where we will have someone talk on the Raceceiver channel. If it is not working, it must be fixed or rent one, or we will be putting you back in the infield again in the feature. The Raceceivers are going to be handled the same as a transponder, it is the drivers responsibility to make sure this is done. If you can not hear very loud, then try different ear phones. Most say they can hear fine, you also can buy a kit to form mold your own. This is all part of the wording mandatory and is common sense.

Is there any one that does not understand this description of what is expected because the rule book says on the car?

Reminders: 

Race Receivers Are Mandatory 

All cars entering the track for all race events must have the appropriate Race Receiver. Cars without a Race Receiver will not be scored unless the Race Receiver was accidentally lost or damaged during the race. Make sure you have one on when entering the track at all times. They will be available for rental or purchase at the sign in booth. See Sandy

Transponders

Drivers if you have not raced or are changing transponder numbers at the Speedway, bring your transponder number to the pit shack.  The transponder number needs to be registered before warm-ups. See Donna

Points

Drivers if you intend to run for points and have not done your work detail party, the WDF must be paid before the warm-ups begin. See Barbara  

NIK STAMP

The area that has been determined by the Board for the Nikoseal stamp on a Stock cylinder.  All cylinders that are to be in the stock class that has been niked must be marked with NIC or NIK in the general spot shown. When you have a cylinder done and it hasn’t been marked, you can then mark it yourself.  We do however advise that you should let the company that is doing the work to mark it. You can have the work done by any company that offers Nikoseal.

It is very common for the small bridged areas on each side of the exhaust port to crack. The Board of Directors has agreed the welding and minimal grinding if needed can be done when it is necessary in these areas.

Push Vehicles Fee

Anyone with a push vehicle at the Speedway is now required to pay a fee of $25.00 yearly.  A sticker will be 

placed on the push vehicle as proof of being registered.  See any Safety inspector at the track to fill the

form out and receive the sticker..
