2nd rider ?
« on: July 13, 2009, 07:42:03 AM »
Bob,
I am sorry if this has been covered previously, blame it on my "Old-timer's disease"

Do you have a process for registering a 2nd rider?

I'm gonna share riding my heap with someone who actually knows somnething.

.. right from the  http://www.lta-lsr.com  website;

Registration is $125, if you pre-register.  Pre-entries MUST be received two weeks prior to the event.  If you register at the track, the registration fee is $150.  Registration is per vehicle, per event weekend for the class in which you initially register.  Class changes are an additional $50 for the first such change and $25 for each additional change, and can be paid at the event.  Driver/rider changes are free of charge.  There is no discount for multiple vehicles entered by a single member or for running just one day of the event.

Be safe, go fast, have FUN !

Is Doug from the New England Area, and did he 'used to' race at the old CT dragway?

Was asking, because went through the 1/4 mile traps with a Doug Meyer in the other lane, he had a rear tire blowout, kept the bike upright on the wheelie bars, went through shutdown, and got a broken ankle out of the deal. May have been NMRA summer nationals or something like that, early mid '80s timeframe.
