This is based on a google search and my knowledge of Midnight Madness.
15 bucks to race. Gates open at 10 AM, Elimination (bracket-style) starts at 2:30 PM.
Basically we'll want to show up early (this is going to be the second day the track is open) I'd say around 9-9:30. Yes that means we'll be sitting around for a while, but it also means we'll get through tech inspection and the very first few rounds without problem. I'm actually writing up an article on the site for those who have never been to a dragstrip before and want to......just covers the basics of drag racing and what to expect so if you have any questions that should answer them.
The 15 bucks is going to cover as many runs as you can do. Basically there should be about 5 rounds.....maybe less maybe more depending ont he crowd before eliminations start. You'll have a chance to make one pass every round. Once eliminations start you run until you lose, and the way bracket racing is set up is that it gives both drivers an equal oppurtunity to win by giving a headstart equal to the differences in time to whoever is dialed in a slower. I'd expect somewhere between 4-7 passes but I have no way of knowing how crowded it will be.
