    The Lone Star Performance Buick Club is hosting their second points race event of 2008 at Redline Raceway on June 14th. Our Race Director, John Martin, will be there to help you get in the program. The gates open at 6:00pm, there will be a mandatory driver's meeting at 8:30pm and eliminations will begin promptly at 9:00pm. So come race or hang out with us for some great Buick action!

    Important Details:
    $10.00 (paid to LSPBC) to bracket race, you must be a current LSPBC member to enter and your vehicle must be Buick or Buick powered to gain Points. Memberships and renewals are available on location.

    1. Street cars only*, No delay boxes, and No throttle stops are allowed.
    2. Any tire is ok. DO NOT burnout past the starting line. This will result in an automatic disqualification.
    3. You may race any brand/model of car you want and win money at the monthly races; however, your vehicle must be Buick or Buick powered to be awarded points.
    4. You must be a paid club member to run brackets. Club dues are $30 annually.
    5. The monthly payouts are pending car count. Therefore, more cars = a higher payout. Payouts are for 1st, 2nd, 3rd & 4th places.

    All time trials will be run out of lane 4 with one exception. If you are running street tires and get in line early, 6:30pm, please line up in lane 3 for your first pass. Redline officials like to run cars with slicks for the first 10-15 pairings from lane 4. We do not want to block lane 4 with street tire cars early. All time trials will be out of lane 4 after 7pm for LSPBC racers.

    2008 rule additions
    1. All LSPBC racers are required to meet in the pits with the race director at 8:30pm to pay their entry fee and draw for positions. Drawing order will determine your position on the standard "Sportsman Ladder" rather than your qualifying time. (Sportsman Ladder Link Click on Sportsman ladder 2 to 16 for examples of running orders.) Do not be late or you will be left out!*
    2. The ladder will be set up prior to 9:00pm to determine the pairings or bye run if applicable.
    3. The higher seeded racer for each pairing will have lane choice.
    4. All eliminations will be out of lanes 5 and 6 and start at 9pm sharp.
    5. Breaking or not showing will result in an automatic loss and a win for your opponent. You must stage and break the starting line beams under your vehicle's own power to receive credit.
    6. Redline has requested that the racers to be ready to run in 5 minutes from when they call us to the lanes. Therefore, know who your opponent for the next round is as soon as possible.

    Points:
    10 points are earned for each round in which you make a qualified run.
    5 bonus points will awarded to the event winner.
    The top three season points leaders will be awarded at the year end LSPBC Christmas party. ($$$ TBD)
