Ben Bruce Memorial Airpark Raceway

Spectators:
Rain checks will be honored for all tickets purchased 2 hours prior to the Official Rain Out time as determined by BBMAR. Eligible spectators only need to keep their STAMPED original BBMAR issued admission ticket and may use such ticket at any future BBMAR event as an admission credit up to its original face value. No refunds will be given under any circumstance.

Any racer that uses a test & tune tech card that makes a pass, will NOT receive a rain check, should a BBMAR event be rained out prior to its completion

Should a BBMAR Event be rained out prior to its completion, that Event will be rescheduled. Any participant unable to attend the rescheduled date will be issued a credit for the face value of the entry fee and such credit may be applied towards the entry fee for any future event. Only those purse monies actually earned and due through completed, final, race standings at the time of the rain out will be issued on the day of the rain out. All other purse monies will continue to be guaranteed at the rescheduled date. In the situation that an event cannot be rescheduled, all participants will be issued a credit towards the face value of the entry fee that may be applied at any future event. Due diligence will be taken by BBMAR to not conflict with a similar event at another local facility. No refunds will be given under any circumstance .

This policy may or may not apply to events held at BBMAR but leased to outside individuals, promoters or companies. Please contact those parties for exact details regarding their rain out policies.

The Rule Books will be available as a CD from IHRA, or go to www.ihra.com

Enrollment for the point series is done in the track office. All drivers must have an IHRA competition number or a BBMAR permanent number to earn points.

Drivers in all classes are advised to purchase an IHRA membership. If a driver chooses not to purchase an IHRA number, BBMAR will assign you a permanent number @ no charge. Numbers have to be at least 4” tall.
The points are earned according to the number displayed on the vehicle. Should a driver change vehicles during the season, his or her permanent must be on that vehicle.
All numbers and dial-ins are to be displayed on the driver’s side of the vehicle and right side windshield. The numbers have to be legible for the tower crew. (4" tall)
Points will be given in eliminations unless there is a special event. Drivers will be notified if points are not given at a special event.

Points will be awarded to the driver and may not be transferred, even if the driver changes eliminator.
Buy backs allowed only after 1st round. If you are a buy back after 1st round you will not earn points. However you can race for the purse.
There will be Two Guarenteed Bracket Time Trials. A driver will be allowed to get into the Test & Tune lanes (3 & 4) before the Two Guarenteed Bracket Time Trials. For the Two Guarenteed Bracket Time Trials, come to the staging lanes when you're called and the appropriate colored light comes on, on the back of the stands. If a driver misses the 1st round of time trials, he will be allowed to get into the Test & Tune lanes. Should anyone decide to get into the Test & Tune Lanes (3 & 4), make as many passes as you feel you can. If you can not make the call for the race due to being hung up in the T & T lanes there will be no refund given and the race will start without you.

Courtesy staging is in effect during all points races except for Jr. Dragsters. If a car stages before both cars have pre-staged, the car will be backed out of the lights (one time only) and both cars will then restage.
No deep staging is allowed.
Jr. Dragster crew members will fire the car up when the two (2) cars before them have pre-staged. A maximum of 3 push-backs and 1 engine restart will be allowed prior to staging. Once the dragster has lit the pre-stage bulb, no crewmember will be allowed to touch the vehicle, other than to turn on a data switch.
No driver may change vehicles once eliminations have begun.
A driver may change vehicles before eliminations have begun, as long as the vehicle is not entered in the same class during the event. The tower must be notified of these changes.

Reaction times and intermediate times are given as a courtesy to the driver and no races will be re-run over disputed times.
It is the sole responsibility of the driver to check his or her dial-in before staging. Once both cars have staged, it is a race.
License Runs: We have always supported our license applicants by offering drivers unlimited access to the track and will continue to do so every Saturday.
Time Trails Only & Exhibition Runs: Some drivers attend our Saturday events in an effort to make only time trial or exhibition runs (test & tune). We understand that not all drivers and/or cars attend our Saturday events to compete in our bracket race. However, Saturday is our RACE DAY.
