Also worth noting is, whilst normal seat belts are allowed, if you haven't got a roof on your car, you'll need a crash helmet.

You'll also need a crash helmet if your car will do more than 100mph at the finish line, which should apply to all you Ultima owners!

I have been to the pod before to watch but I followed drag racing for quite a while.
My advice would be to get there early and watch the other competitors as see how the regulars are doing things.
There will be water down befor the lights for people to do a burn out to warm their tyres. when doing the burn out make sure you roll out of it so you dond leave and water on your tyres. If you dont want to do a burn out then drive round the water.
Check which lights you will be using as there are two sequences they can use. They will be probably be running sportsman lights which means the yellows go on one after the other and the green light, lights 1/2 second after the last yellow. Probably better to ask someone who races regually to explain the staged and pre-staged lights.
Ill try and dig up some more details
ok go to www.santapod.com/ and take a look that their how to start racing section.
