**EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY** once your vehicle passes tech, it will be sent straight to impound/line up. There will be no returning to your pit once a stick is taped onto your vehicle. If anything at all is needed to be done before show time including adding fuel it must be run by us before doing so. If not you will not run. This goes for all classes at any of our shows. We will have people in the impound/lineup area making sure no cars are tampered with and everyone abides by these regulations.

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and have a safe and happy new years.
We were hoping to share some proposed rule changes for the 2024 season. Please let us know your thoughts on these proposed rule changes.
They are as follows:

Light weld compacts/mini vans: (1) rear window bars. (2) 2 spots of 9 wire anywhere on the vehicle

Bone stock compacts: (2) spots of using a factory seat belt anywhere on the vehicle.

Full size: (2) 4"x6" plates on the front frame rails starting from the back of the front bumper.

Finally, we are gauging intrest in adding a mwfa style class, with the exception to the mwfa class rules a fuel cell must be mounted in the vehicle and the battery be relocated to the passenger floorboard.

These are not set in stone and just proposed changes/additions. Your feedback is much appreciated and valued.

we are looking for a few on track photos of the full size cars from Bedford the last two years, if anyone has any please post them below.

26/04/2023

After meeting with the Bedford County fair Board we are happy to announce that all classes will receive increased payouts. the largest increase in payout will be for the bone stock compacts, as that class has had the biggest turnout and we are looking to keep expanding the class. ***FULLSIZE TRUCKS*** the turnout the last few years has not been good, therefore in a last ditch effort to keep the trucks at Bedford we had to compromise. In doing so the full-size truck payout will be handled differently this year. Each full-size truck will pay a $50 entry fee, we will then match the total entry fee money and that will become the payout. this is a last ditch effort and the best compromise we could assemble. If you are on the fence about running a full-size truck this is the time to get it to the track. The full size trucks will be utilizing our full size v8 rules. Please call for any questions on building. Bed sides may not be layed over or turned into a wedge.

Payouts

Bone stock compacts
1st, $1000
2nd, $600
Heat winners will receive a $50 bonus

Light weld Compacts
1st, $750
2nd, $350
Heat winners will receive a $50 bonus
