With all the problems NHRA Division 1 is bringing-on themselves regarding deep-staging

this might be someplace for a foot-brake racer to go in mid-summer, as deep-staging is honored

That is the type of racing we need up here in the north. That flyer makes me want to come down for some racing. If they reach a car count they will raise the payout to $10,000. That is great.

..... of the 17 Summit Points Series Saturday evening events at Bradenton this year, 6 of them are 1/8-mile events, with a 1/4-mile, $2500-to-win race for Super Pro in the morning/early-afternoon, and with S/P having a 13.99/quicker cut-off, a foot-brake racer can double-dip on those days.

Deep Staging allowed & the word "DEEP" allowed on vehicles. Tip: The better you display it, the better the starter will see it.
Tree will be held for double deep who do not abuse the privilege.
Autostart used for all other combinations with extra cycle time (Same as 2007 Island & Maple Grove 10K tree).

This is a non-electronics Footbrake race. Transbrakes, shift solenoids, pneumatic or electric throttle stops, delay boxes may not be used. Delay Boxes are not allowed in vehicle-No exceptions.
