Drag Racing Classes

Exhibition Class 
This is an unregulated exhibition class for people who are simply coming to TX2K to run a record ET and/or MPH. The intent here is to have a class for shop cars, big build and high profile cars that are out to set records without running eliminations.  No coolant allowed (water only, no water wetter allowed). Engine pan OR engine diaper and transmission diaper required (diaper must provide full engine coverage, pan must have at least 2″ lip and liquid absorbent pad at bottom of pan).  Spots for this class will be limited and must be approved by Peter B.
