 As you know there may or may not be rain Saturday morning. We feel the top speeds on Canaan’s Half Track 2 are too high for rain racing. So in the interest of safety we will be running clockwise on Half Track 1 all day. That way if it does rain there will be no need to change the track set up and you all will get some laps around the course.
This also means that we will need to add a couple extra practice groups to accommodate the Karting Safety Course. We will also combine a few practice groups as we are able. We will start at 9am sharp to make sure everyone gets two practice sessions before lunch break. Then we will likely split back up into the normal race groups, which will be joined by the new drivers who pass the Safety Course. Bottom line: It’ll take a smooth, trouble-free day on track to fit in all the planned laps, so we ask all drivers to use their heads, keep it on the asphalt and not be the ass at fault.
Finally, the Kid Karts typically get four sessions up to and during lunch break. However, as is always the policy, Kid Karts will not race on a wet track. It’s impossible to predict what the morning will bring, but we will get them out there as soon and as often as we can before the end of lunch.
LeCont/Levanto rain tires (white or purple label) are the only rain tires allowed. NHKA will have limited quantities available at the track, however pre-orders/reservations are now closed. We suggest making whatever arrangements available with your preferred NHKA Authorized Dealer.
