Hey Mark, since I've got the Talon back together now I may be going to the Midnight Mayem on the 31st as well. Really depends on the weather.

Cordova has always seemed to be relaxed in their tech screening. Not to take away from their expertise, I just think they have a few key factors they look for and are otherwise, unconcerned.

It's been 3-4 years since I've been to a MM event, so I don't know about track prep. I heard the last MM had little or no track prep. Normally there is plenty.

AS far as the rules...heres what's on their site (Beyond these generalities they follow standard NHRA rules):

Midnight Mayhem
Street Legal, DOT Tires & Mufflers (Cars Only)
Grudge Racing, Class Racing & Instant Green Starts, Flag Girl Contest
Gates Open - 10:00pm
Racing - 11:00pm - 4:00am

General Rules:
