2011 EMPIRE DRAGWAY'S
"1320 CLUB" POINTS PROGRAM

You can download a registration form by clicking here
                                                               (Adobe acrobat required)

By signing up for the "1320 CLUB" Points program you will be eligible for Empire Dragway’s $8,000 Cash & Awards payout. 1320 CLUB members are also eligible for the Big E Light program.  Members may also join the Summit Super Series $100,000 World Championship Program.

POINTS WILL BEGIN WHEN A DRIVER OR TEAM SIGNS UP FOR THE "1320 CLUB".

The points will begin on Saturday, April 30 and end on Sunday, October 9. There will be one SUNDAY DOUBLE POINTS  race in 2011, our MID-SEASON CHAMPIONSHIP, SUNDAY, July 24, 2011. Class winners for the night will run-off for a 2012 SEASON PASS .

Points will be given to drivers, not cars.

Points are calculated by your assigned number. It is the driver’s responsibility to use the assigned Empire Dragway number on a weekly basis. Drivers must check their points on a weekly basis and notify the timing tower of any discrepancies in their "1320 Club" points or the Summit Super Series points.

SUMMIT SUPER SERIES In 2011 Empire Dragway will be participating in the Summit Super Series Program. To be eligible for the Summit Super Series you must join the "1320 Club" Points Series, and obtain an "X" number from IHRA. For complete details log onto IHRA.com or call the track at 585-382-3030.  Empire Dragway's points program will determine the Summit Super Series winners.  Note: The No-box winner and runner-up will be determined by running off the points leaders in Pro, Street and Bike/Sled who are participating in the Summit Super Series.  The run off will determine the overall No-Box Summit Super Series Champion and Runner-up, as well as the No-Box representative at the Bracket Finals.  The run-off will be held on Saturday, September 10.  If it rains on September 10, the run-off will be on Sunday, September 18.  If both September 10 and 18 are rained out, a drawing will determine the winner and runner-up.

The BIG E LIGHT PROGRAM - Open to all 1320 CLUB POINTS MEMBERS
There will be 2 categories, Box and No-Box.  Every time a racer's reaction time is .500 to .509 during eliminations they will receive a BIG E LIGHT certificate.  The racer in each category, Box and No-Box, who receives the most BIG E LIGHT certificates during the 2011 Season will be awarded a .500 Club Jacket at the AWARDS BANQUET.  We will also be drawing for .500 Club jackets at the FRIGID NATIONALS, Sunday, October 9 by collecting all certificates won during the 2011 season and selecting a winner from each category by a random drawing.

Team drivers will be allowed, but they MUST register as a team when signing up for the "1320 CLUB" Points. The fee for co-drivers is $35.

TEAM MEMBERS WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO RACE EACH OTHER UNTIL WE REACH THE SEMI-FINALS.

TEAMS WILL BE ASSIGNED ONE CAR NUMBER. The driver running for the points must use that assigned number. In the event that both team members are racing on the same day, the person running for the points will use the assigned team points number. The other driver must use a different number.  If both team members use the  assigned number on the same day, the driver who earns the least amount of points is what we will count.

Points will be given as follows: 1 POINT FOR EACH ROUND WON

Double Points Day is: Sunday, July 24

In the event a driver is racing in two classes the driver must notify the timing tower officials, prior to the first round of competition, as to which class he would like points calculated. If the driver fails to notify the tower before eliminations begin, the class in which the least amount of points was earned is what we will count.

Registration fee will be $60 per driver, which includes permanent number registration. Permanent numbers may be obtained from Empire Dragway.

Drivers should familiarize themselves with the Wisenberg Insurance Waiver & Release of Liability. (copies available upon request)

TO RECEIVE YOUR PRIZE MONEY & AWARDS, THE WINNING DRIVER MUST PERSONALLY ATTEND THE AWARDS BANQUET.

BRACKET FINALS

Empire Dragway will be forming a team of 39 competitors to participate in the 2011 Bracket Finals held at Pittsburgh Raceway Park, Pittsburgh, PA on September 22-25, 2011. In 2011, the Bracket Finals will be run on a QUARTER MILE.

The number of competitors from each eliminator that will make up the team will be determined on a percentage basis of the number of entrants in the points program for each eliminator. The number of eligible participants from each eliminator will be determined on August 6, 2011. The points standings as of September 10 will determine who is eligible to participate in the Bracket Finals.

GRAND CHAMPION

The Grand Champion will be determined by racing the Super Pro, Pro, Street and Bike/Sled points winners on October 9. The Grand Champion will receive a Grand Champion Jacket, 54 Gallons of Racing Fuel compliments of Insinger Performance, 2012 reserved pit parking, Grand Champion Trophy, Exit Gate Privileges  and a Hotel Suite at the Banquet compliments of the CLARION HOTEL of  Batavia.

(Prizes cannot be substituted for cash)

In the event of a rain-out on October 9, the final points day and Grand Champion run-off will be on Sunday, October 16, 2011. In the event of a rain-out on October 9 and October 16, the Class Champions will be determined by the points standings on October 2. The Grand Champion will be determined by a drawing.
