BUCKEYE RETRO SERIES

Race Day Procedures

• Tracks will open at 8:00 AM on race day. Most tracks will be open on Fridays for practice. Please call individual tracks to confirm. A maximum $10.00 track pass fee may be charged.

• ENTRY FEES:

First BRS class raced: $15.00 (Fee covers pre-race practice and track-provided lunch)
Second BRS class raced: $10.00
Third non-BRS class raced: TBD by individual tracks

• Pre-race practice will be held from 8:00 to 9:30 AM. Track power will be shut off promptly at 9:30. Practice will be conducted in an ‘open’ format. Please be courteous to fellow racers and not monopolize lanes and leave controllers hooked-up when not physically at the track panel. There will be NO practice sessions held between the F1/Indy and Can-Am races

• Tech opens at 9:30 AM and will close at 10:15 AM. Both F1/Indy and Can-Am will be teched at the same time. Tech procedures for the third class will be announced by the individual tracks. Following tech all cars will be placed in a secure impound area. Racers are not permitted to touch their cars until the start of pre-race warm-up. Following a race all cars will be returned to secure impound until it is determined that no protests have been filed and that a racer has fulfilled his marshalling assignment. Cars will then be released to the racers.

• A one-minute qualifying session will be held for both F1/Indy and Can-Am classes. A racers best lap and/or laps/sections will determine placement into mains/heats. Qualifying order will be determined by tech entry… first in line for tech will qualify last. Both classes will qualify immediately following tech.

• F1/Indy and Can-Am mains/heats will be three (3) minutes on… two (2) minutes off. Best lap totals from all mains/heats will determine the overall finish of the race. Lane assignments in mains/heats will be determined by qualifying results. Fast time will get first lane choice etc. A one-minute ‘warm-up’ period will be conducted prior to the start of each heat/main. There will be NO break taken for lunch. Participants will eat when not racing and/or marshalling.

• Concours judging will be held for F1/Indy and Can-Am classes at all events.

• Lane change cards MUST be used by all racers. A five-lap penalty may be given for non-use following a warning.

• Any unsportsmanlike conduct may also result in a five-lap penalty, or disqualification.

• Legitimate track calls will be discussed prior to the beginning of the race.

• BLACK FLAG RULE: Damaged cars that are a hazard may be ‘black flagged’ by the race director. A car that is black flagged must be removed and repaired before returning to competition. A car that loses its lane sticker will be immediately black flagged. Loss of a lane sticker is NOT a track call. Cars must have lane stickers at all times.

• Marshalling assignments will be announced. All racers are expected to marshal, or provide a replacement.

• Motor and tire protest fees and procedures are covered in the general IRRA LLC rule set. Please see: retroslotracing.com

• All Buckeye Retro Series events will be conducted under the rules, guidelines, procedures and by-laws of the IRRA LLC.
