JEGS QUICK 16

We're always looking for the fastest cars topping out the drag strip and to find them, we created the Quick 16!

With Top Sportsman, Top Dragster, and Altered vehicles in a qualified field with competition conducted in a dial-in ET format. This will be a 1/8th mile race on a .500 sportsman tree with scoreboards on. It is "run what you brung", but the car must meet NHRA safety requirements for the times it runs.

MELLING PERFORMANCE GRUDGE TEST-N-TUNE

This is a no-payout class focused on keeping fun at a premium. It's perfect for those looking for a fun-run style class just like they have at their home track.

This class is ideal for any of those scenarios. The class will run throughout the entire weekend. There will be a staging lane specifically for No-Time racers during Grudge Test-N-Tune. When this lane runs, the boards will not be lit.


Grudge Test-N-Tune Rules Other than having an LS or Gen V LT engine, there are no rules or limitations to this class. All vehicles MUST pass NHRA safety inspection for ET and speed.
