Renegade Sportsman Rules

The Renegade Sportsman division (formerly Super Street) was designed to limit the costs for someone to race a full-blown V8 Stock Car and level the playing field between today’s tube chassis and yesterday’s stock cars. This is a perfect division for someone who likes that raw V8 power without the enormous cost of trying to run Late Model Stock Cars.

Shock Claim Procedure:

  2. Shock Claim must be made in writing with cash to the tech man before the initial technical inspection is completed. Once the car leaves the scale/tech area, a shock claim will not be accepted.
  3. The driver/team being claimed has 5 minutes to decide whether to accept the claim or deny it.
  4. If the driver/team being claimed denies the claim, they will be disqualified from the night’s event and will not be allowed to run those shocks again this season.
  5. The driver/team denying the protest may also be subject to a monetary fine and/or points deduction at the discretion of the promoter/race director/tech inspector.

Cheating bans are only for the division caught cheating. A driver may move to another division once banned from competing in one division. A suspension for cheating doesn’t prevent you from attending the race or competing in another division.
