Import Showdown 2009

As with all Import Showdowns (and any other event at an NHRA sanctioned track) long pants are required for ALL racers. Every year in the Spring, the weather gets warm and the shorts come out. If you are racing, be sure to bring long pants. Even if just to wear while making passes In addition, NHRA safety requirements are enforced, including helmets for those with times quicker than 13.99. Please note that safety rules are enforced by the track and you must adhere to all track officials requests.

Pre-Register now and save $5 off the day of event pricing for those who are racing! This also guarantees you a spot to race, even if we are forced to shut down tech sales when we hit the maximum number of people the day of the event (which has happened several times).

We've announced the Spring 2009 classes and rules. And there are definitely some changes you will want to be aware of. The biggest change is that we have dropped Modified Street class, Hybrid Luxury, and split RWD and AWD into seperate classes! The classes for Spring 2009 will be:
Showdown (competitive>
RWD
AWD
FWD
All Motor

We've annouced the Spring 2009 Import Showdown dates!  The Spring Import Showdown will be Sunday May 3rd, 2009 at Silver Dollar Raceway!

We're exicted and actively planning the 2009 Season of Import Showdown, including drag racing and another Track Day! Stay tuned as we expect to have dates very soon for the Spring Drag Racing Day!!

The Import Showdown needs your help. One of our racers recently had their car stolen. Although it wasn't stolen from the Import Showdown, he was a competitor at our Spring event and is offering a $3000 reward. Since he car was at our event and drew a lot of attention, we are hoping one of our other attendees recongizes the car and can provider information.

A few final thoughts on the Spring 2008 - we are expecting beautiful weather tomorrow. Partly cloud and highs in the low 80s. Should be perfect weather for Drag Racing! However, with the nice weather, don't forget the long pants if you are racing. Also, if you are a fan of Road Courses/Track Days, we are going to be giving away a pass to the 2008 Import Showdown Track Day! (The date of the Import Showdown is TBD)

The Import Showdown staff will be traveling to the Silver Dollar Area beginning Saturday afternoon. Although we will make every effort to continue to check in for questions about the event, we may not be able to respond or may be delayed in our respones. See everyone Sunday!
