So there will be no confusion when people get there here are the rules of the race track. Rember this is a special event so all Scions, Toyota's, and lexus cars and trucks are free to enter and only have to pay $5 dollars to race. All other cars must pay at the gate and can not race (unless preaproved befor the day of the event, ie promod cars.)
Info taken off of capitol's web page
CAPITOL TRACK INFO:
WE ARE 20FT. ABOVE SEA LEVEL. WE ARE A NHRA TRACK MEMBER AND ABIDE BY THEIR RULES. OUR TRACK IS CLEANED AND SCRAPED DURING THE WEEK DAYS AND IS ALWAYS SPRAYED ONE NIGHT BEFORE THE RACES FOR BETTER TRACTION. WE HAVE JET DRYER, TRACTOR WITH A LARGE BLOWER, TRAILERED SPRAYER. THE GENERAL ADMISSION ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY IS ALWAYS $10.00 EXCEPT ON SPECIAL EVENTS. CHILDREN UNDER 12 ARE ALWAYS FREE. DIRECTIONS FROM THE NORTH ARE: INTERSTATE 95 SOUTH TO 695WEST TO 97 SOUTH TO RT. 3 SOUTH G APPROX. 3 MILES TO A RIGHT ON CAPITOL RACEWAY RD. IF YOU USE 83 SOUTH TAKE 695 WEST TO 97 SOUTH. FROM THE SOUTH TAKE 95/495 NORTH TO 50 EAST TO RT. 3 NORTH GO APPROX. 6 MILES INTO THE TOWN OF CROFTON TO A LEFT AT THE CROSS OVER BETWEEN BOSTON CHICKEN AND WENDY’S TURN LEFT ON RT. 3 SOUTH GET ALL THE WAY IN THE RIGHT TURN LANE, GO 100 FEET TO A RIGHT ONTO CAPITOL RACEWAY RD.
NHRA RULES
14.99 sec
To prevent radiator overflow from leaking onto the track, NHRA requires an overflow can of at least one pint in volume. This can be as simple as routing a radiator overflow tube into a windshield washer reservoir.
All cars should also be equipped with a proper battery hold-down, even when the battery is in the stock location. Factory stock hold-downs are acceptable in this case. Otherwise, bolts of 3/8-inch diameter must be used to retain the battery. Lug nuts are another area of concern, especially with aftermarket wheels. NHRA recommends all cars be equipped with open-ended lug nuts to allow the inspector to verify the length of thread engagement.
Obviously, all lug nuts and studs must be in place. For slower cars, this isn’t a critical point, especially when using O.E.M. wheels. But with faster cars and aftermarket wheels, the concern is that the lug nut engage the threads of the stud for a distance at least equal to the diameter of the stud. Inquire at your local track as to what the tech inspector will accept.
Since fire is an ever-present threat, NHRA specifies no more than a total of 12 inches of rubber fuel line in the fuel delivery system. This includes the rubber line between the pickup and an external fuel pump and also between the fuel pump and carburetor. In the case of an accident, rubber line is susceptible to damage that could cause a fire. Investing in either steel hard line or braided-steel fuel line is both wise and far safer than using rubber fuel line. Some type of reverse lockout for aftermarket shifters is also required for all cars.
13.99 sec
NHRA requires a DOT, SNELL or SFI helmet for any car quicker than 14.00. There are a number of different specs so you should check with your local tech inspector.
For cars that run e.t.’s between 12.00 and 13.99, all of the above requirements apply along with the addition of a driveshaft loop. A new-for-’95 rule exempts cars running 13.00 and slower when equipped with street tires. Since traction is the key to going quick, this places more strain on the driveshaft. To prevent the driveshaft from breaking at the front U-joint area and perhaps coming into the interior of the car, or digging into the track and pole-vaulting the car, NHRA mandates that a steel loop be placed just behind the front U-joint of the driveshaft. A universal driveshaft loop is available from Lakewood that bolts to the floorpan. A rollbar is required in this e.t. bracket only if the car is a convertible.
11.99 sec
By the time a car is capable of running between 11.00 and 11.99 seconds in the quarter-mile, safety requirements are especially important. Up until this point, factory seatbelts are acceptable, but in the 11-second-and-quicker time zone you need a quality safety harness. The minimum requirement is a 3-inch-wide, five-point harness meeting SFI spec 16.1. The 1995 National Hot Rod Association Rulebook outlines the proper way to mount the shoulder harness and belts.
An NHRA-legal rollbar is also required in the category. Recent rule changes have reconfigured what NHRA classifies as a rollbar. The classic four-point bar is no longer acceptable. The new standard is mild-steel tubing of at least .120-inch wall thickness (most chassis companies, like Art Morrison, use .134-inch wall tubing) that includes a forward-running side bar from the main hoop past the driver’s shoulder. This bar is only required on the driver’s side, but most systems include both sides for a six-point rollbar.
An SFI-approved scattershield is also necessary in this e.t. category. NHRA requires the scattershield to have an SFI aluminum-foil sticker. According to Red Roberts of McLeod Industries, older bellhousings can be certified by sending the scattershield and block plate to the original manufacturer. The company will inspect the housing and if it passes, it will receive an SFI 6-1 certification. Most SFI certifications are good for five years. Contact your manufacturer if you’re not sure.
The clutch and flywheel must also be SFI certified. The main consideration in this area is to avoid using a cast-iron flywheel. According to Roberts, sometime in the mid-’70s most of the new car companies began using nodular iron flywheels that are much safer. Most, if not all, current high-performance aluminum and steel flywheels are safe when used in conjunction with an approved scattershield, but the rules state that the pressure plate and flywheel need an SFI certification number. Roberts says the best plan is to record all your SFI numbers in a logbook. This makes it easier for the tech inspector and it shows the inspector that you understand the importance of the inspection process. This e.t. level also requires steel valve stems in all wheels, along with arm restraints for open-cockpit cars like roadsters.
10.99 sec
Cars running between 10.00 and 10.99 need all the above-mentioned safety equipment, plus driver’s protective clothing, aftermarket axles and an SFI-approved harmonic balancer. The driver needs to have at least a single-layer, SFI-approved jacket such as those sold by companies like Diest, Simpson, RJR and others, as well as long pants and approved driver’s gloves.
The aftermarket axle requirement also extends to installing a C-clip eliminator kit in any rearend that uses a C-clip to retain the rear axle, such as the GM 10- and 12-bolts and the Ford 8.8-inch rearends. While the current NHRA axle rule does not include an SFI spec for axles, experienced axle manufacturers such as Summers Brothers, Mark Williams, Strange and others offer axles intended for this kind of abuse.
Harmonic balancers first became a subject of concern on blown cars that placed enormous loads on the balancer driving the supercharger. Now, any car running quicker than 10.99 needs an SFI-approved harmonic balancer to be legal. Companies like Vibratech, TCI, BHJ and others can supply the necessary legal part.
A new NHRA safety rule change for 1995 states that cars running between 10.00 and 10.99 must have a rollcage unless the car has an unaltered firewall, floorpan and body (except for wheeltubs). This means if you have a street car with a stock floorpan and firewall but have tubbed it for bigger tires, all you need is a five-point rollbar until the car runs quicker than 10.00. Of course, a rollcage is perfectly acceptable if you wish to install one.
9.99 sec
Now we’re into the really quick cars, those running from 9.00 to 9.99 seconds in the quarter. These cars are blazingly fast and capable of speeds approaching 150 mph. Significant improvements must be made to the car in order to step into the 9-second zone. Foremost among these is a rollcage. The cage must be constructed of mild-steel tubing at least 15/8 inch in diameter, with .120-inch wall thickness. It can also be chrome-moly tubing of .083-inch wall thickness with a total of eight attachment points. These eight points refer to the placement of the cage surrounding the driver, including the two rear support bars. NHRA does not require bars that run forward to the front suspension, although many cage designs include them. All cars running 9.99 or quicker must have the cage certified by NHRA and have the NHRA certification sticker attached to the cage.
Attached to the cage is a window net to keep the driver’s arms inside the car. The driver must also wear a neck collar and fireproof clothing meeting an SFI spec. Additional requirements include an NHRA competition license, an external electrical shutoff and a flexplate/automatic transmission shield. If your car can run over 150 mph in the quarter, as many of these cars do, then NHRA also requires a parachute to help slow the car down. Now that we’ve primed the pump, your best bet is to obtain a 1995 NHRA Rulebook for $10 and carefully read the E.T. Bracket General Regulations section. The Rulebook specifies exactly what will be required depending upon your car’s e.t. capability. Drag racing with fast street cars is tons of fun. It’s even better when you do it safely.

Gotta agree with Zach, Chris was extremely chill, cool to chat with.
I had fun. Gotta see how bad the sun got to me. And sitting in front of the band all day probably wasn't great. (Though they kind of invaded my setup.)
Great talking to people I hadn't met before and seeing the badass cars.

Was a very fun day, wish I could have stayed until it ended. More Scions than I expected, though I kinda thought more of the heavily modded ones would be there. I guess with the OC show on Saturday the crowd was a little split.
I really liked the way the track was ran, the staff was very nice and laid back, but kept the lanes running quick, or maybe they just had more time to stage between runs with xB's going 20s in the quarter

I just want to thank everybody for coming out yesterday and supporting our show. I had a great time and from what I heard from people, its seems like you guys had a great time too (which is what matters the most). It was a great turnout, although I was hoping for more Scion to come out. When we originally picked the date we didn't realize that the OC car show was the same weekend, so I'm pretty sure that had a lot to do with it.
We definitely hope to do this again next year. With the word of mouth from this show and hopefully some more support from even more Scion dealers we can make next years show twice as big. I had a chance to talk with Rado before he left and he is definitely down with coming out next year and even has a few ideas of his own to make the show better (but we will discuss those later :D).
Again, thanks for those that came out and we will see you next year at the 2nd Annual Show of Champions!!

This event was pretty darn good.... I wouldnt rank it as high as the Scion campout a year ago but it was good. I really wanted to go to the auto-x but I made a last minute decision to go because I learned there was serious prize money awarded for the gamblers race drag winner. I have been stressed about $ for a while and went with vivid intentions of grabbing the gold prize of $1000.
many Scion raced, as well as Toyotas and Lexus' ... as well as some invited pro-drag cars. Moises took home fastest tC with his orange and black turbo'd tC... but what is cool is he also took 1st place in the show! Passes went on throughout the day and times were recorded . later on they opened staging lanes to cars that wanted to enter the "gamblers race". A gamblers race is bracket racing with a twist... If you loose you can buy your way back in, but only in the first rounds can you do so. I lined up thinking that it was just Scions and toyotas....that was a big NO as right away some serious drag race cars lined up as well. Ever seen "Pinks All-Out"?? it was an enviornment like that in a way. 30-50 cars entered... my nerves were controlled but on edge lol.
1st round went by... Scions kicked booty! they took out many heavy hitters and it was awsome to see so many Scions make it past 1st round! My 1st round match was hard because i was matched up against an 11 second car so it was hard to judge when a car is coming up so fast... but I prevailed, come to find out he bought back in after I beat him.........I saw him again later...
Rounds went by and I judged my car well as I monitored the temperature of it and the outside air... adjusted my dial-in time accordingly. Throughout the day I helped a few Nova SE peeps with their dial-ins and advise because bracket racing was new to some of them.
Before long I was in the semi-finals... Mike was in the semi finals(SE guy with auto tC) and I was matched against the car I put out 1st round, he was against his buddy, also with an 11 second car. This race was awsome because I ran my dial-in time DEAD ON and had a .073 reaction time, yet I only won by .02 seconds!!!!!!!! talk about a close race!! I WAS SO HAPPY TO MAKE IT TO THE FINAL!! 1 minute later I see Mike roll back into the staging lanes!!!! SCIONS FTW!!! all-Scion final lol! Now at this time I thought i was guaranteed $ as I was under the impression that 2nd place got $200 and 1st got $1000, but the lady came from the tower and told us that is was nothing for 2nd place, but $1000 for 1st unless we came to agreement on a split.
Throughout the day I helped Mike as it was his 1st time bracket racing, he grasped the concept after a couple of rounds and we monitored his car's times and adjusted his dial-in accordingly. His car proved to be consistant as an automatic is great for bracket racing! Between that and having decent reaction times, he made his way all the way to the final! So after learning there was no $ for second, we came to agreement to split the winnings 50/50 so we both come away with decent $... now the pressure was off for both of us and we were ready to rock! Last thing he said before we ran... "don't hold back because of our agreement" lol.
We both rolled up to the tree, happy as heck that we made it to the final but without pressure as we already felt like we won with an Scion Scion final.... both took off... I took the win but it was close! first time he had broken out all day and it happened, and i had my worst reaction time so I was open for defeat... But YYYYAAAAYYYY!!! I was so happy i was smackin my roof from inside the car and onkin my horn LOL. We then both pulled in front of the tower and racers came up and shook my hand as well as the track workers... It felt GREAT!!! Somebody then handed me a stack of $ which WAS REALLY GREAT!!!! :D Then one of the track officials told me he wanted to take photos of me with my car and the $$$$$$$ and I said... "only if Mike is in it too!" so we lined up our cars, I handed Mike $500 for photos and fanned out the $$$$$ like gangstas... felt like stars we did!!! GREAT DAY!!!
