    Tintmasters Street Legal
    Weekend Event
    August 7th-8th


    Location: Interstate Dragways in Sabin, MN. ~5 miles east of Moorhead on I94, take Sabin exit, go 1 mile south and the track will be on the right http://thedragraceplace.com/


    Gates Open: 10am Saturday & Sunday (For Those Not Camping)
    Racing Starts: 12pm Saturday & Sunday
    Car Show: 12pm-5pm Saturday $ 12pm-4pm Sunday (Trophies - 5pm Sunday)

    NO PREREGISTRATION REQUIRED FOR ANY OF THE WEEKEND EVENTS


    Participant – All Inclusive (Racing, Camping, Car Show) = $45 Per Day / $80 Weekend Pass
    Spectators – All Inclusive (Watch Racing, Car Show, Camp) = $15 Per Day / $25 Weekend Pass

    To help alleviate the costs incurred with this event (track rental, security, camping), the fees are the same for both days, whether you choose to take advantage of the camping epicness or not. To ensure nobody attempts to pay for one day and stay all weekend, we will require those without a ‘weekend’ wristband to pay again on Sunday and get a wristband. There are discounts for those wishing to buy the ‘weekend’ pass up front. If you do not purchase a ‘weekend’ wristband, you are allowed to camp Saturday for the 1 day price, however those without wristbands at 10am on Sunday will be asked to leave or pay for the Sunday’s events. To keep things simple, we encourage you to purchase the ‘weekend’ pass at a discounted rate!

    Car Show
    The car show will be a ‘People’s Choice’ judged event. Everyone who enters the weekend event on either day will be given 1 judging sheet to pick their favorite. We will tally up the totals on Sunday at 4pm, and offer trophies for Best of Show 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Being this is a combined event, if you choose to show AND race, you will be allowed to come and go from your space in the show as you please. We are incorporating racing with the show in the pricing, so please feel free to take advantage of both events offered! Whether you have a fast car or not, drag racing is an extremely fun sport and we encourage everyone to give it a try. Again, there is no further fee if you choose to race, show, or both.

    Racing
    The racing portion of this event will be ran exactly as it is for other Tintmasters Street Legal events. You will need to go through tech inspection and given a number to race. Once you have your number and have been inspected, please feel free to enter the staging lanes at your leisure. Race as often as your would like, there is no limitation on the amount of runs you can take. If you would like to race your buddy, please have them line up next to you in the staging lanes and inform the staff when you near the burnout box whom you wish to race against. After you are done racing, please hang onto ALL of your time slips, as there will be trophies for random challenges throughout the day. Some of the trophies may include: Best Burnout, Best Reaction Time (in the event of 2 perfect reactions, we will take the next best from the 2 individuals), Best ‘I Broke It’, Quickest ET (Bike & Car), Slowest ET (WOT run), etc… We will keep it fun for everyone and not require a fast car for a chance at a trophy!

    Camping
    About 5 years ago, we had a low key camping event at Interstate Dragways that turned into A HUGE camping event. From bon fires to partying, fun was had by all. Alcohol is allowed after the drag racing has completed on Saturday. If you are seen drinking anything with alcohol prior to the completion of the drag races, you will be asked to leave without a refund. This will be STRICTLY enforced. To ensure the safety of everyone at the event as well as those on the roads, we will not allow anyone to leave or reenter the track after 10pm on Saturday. Exceptions can be made on an individual basis through Tintmasters staff. If you must leave after 10pm, you will not be allowed to return until the following morning, so have everything you will need for a night of fun BEFORE 10pm! This year we will also have security hired to ensure no illegal activities ensue. Our first weekend event had burnouts in the grass, a huge tractor tire pushed into a fire, as well as other vandalism in the restrooms. We will not tolerate any of this, and if you are caught damaging any part of the Interstate Dragways facility, you will be prosecuted. Please just have a great time and respect the property and people around you.

    I look forward to seeing everyone out at the weekend event on August 7-8th!

    Damn I am going to this one might need someone to drive one of my cars wife cant drive a stick and is scared of my Nova. Most of the streetlegal drags have been rained out the first 2 times this year i think. Then i had to work today yay and forgot about it till 6pm.

    How late do you guys run? Would be nice to know for sure if there is a reason to drive out there. Not your fault but last year we went there 3 times when the bikers were doing it and it was already closed down. That idea blew up in there face. Maybe someone could use the phone to say on your website everything is a go. Out there they cancel if the grass parking is to wet and such. Cant let guys drag on muddy tires. Not bitching at u last year sucked bigtime and glad to have you back!!!!!

    Here is car pics cuz i cant drive 2 out.

    We keep www.tintmasters.net/forums/ updated if any weather creates issues. If it rains, we will wait it out and see if it will clear up. They have access to aviation information, so they will be able to make a fairly accurate prediction if it looks bad way ahead of time...but weather does weird things, so I can't promise anything.

    This event will be more focused on a combination of events, rather than solely on a car show. Our hope is to get a few people that have never tried drag racing, to give it a shot, while having an area to show their car (show n shine style). Bring a tent and cooler, this will be an awesome event!
