lets not forget the stupid but most important things....
1. You must be wearing Pants, and close toed shoes. A jacket isnt a bad idea either.
2. Your battery must be secure with a mount. You can not use tape, leather belt, or anything else(trust me on this :smt120 ). They will try to move it and it shoudnt budge.
3. There is not a catchcan on most cars. What there is, is a overflow line coming from the top of the radiator to the collant fill bottle... so if your stock your fine.
4. You can not be leaking ANY fluids or you will not race.
5. Only you can race your car.
6. You can only have a passenger if you run a 14.00 or slower and they have signed a waver.
Now here is something for first timers to know.
1. Do not do a long burnout with street tires... do a quick spin to clear off the rocks and shit
2. With Drag Radials do not go through the water box. Drag Radials have tread and trap water in them... when you roll up to the line this water comes out and only makes the ground even slicker....
3. Only go through the water box with slicks
4. There are 2 staging lights you must pull up to. The first one means you are close to the line and the second one means you are right on it. So pull up till you see the two lights light up.
5. To get a good RT dont hit the gas when the light goes green. Hit it right before as it takes time for the power to transfer and the reaction time between your mind seeing green and hitting the gas isnt instant lol
6. TURN OFF YOUR AC... it only wastes power
7. Turn off your radio and any other accessory
8. Cant think of anymore...
I have learned most of these by messing up so... so i have learned from my mistakes... just trying to save you guys the imbarassment
