OVERNIGHT CAMPING: For the racers and crew that want to camp at the dragstrip, we have worked with the Marion County Raceway to finalize a plan that will allow the facility to host those looking to camp overnight both on Friday and on Saturday nights. Campers will be required to do the following:
1. Racers: purchase a racer tech card (Sat/Sun) or a Test-and-Tune/Fun Run tech card for both Saturday and Sunday on =AT1mGazeeGHSmzVu6n6RGE8AQRbPmOFZAyNFxtO_g5_JfNFXn Dl1xpSk-xCvrLSTS45ggj0ktWOVmPUL3ZAi_FYMbKOHky0H47kjEqhlu0l 8MIX-ru1S7IbX0-EUm5LI9emK9GIqqcp4LweSW3xm7gSTrW9uM64eSQIjLL7HdePF 59KKh7kUvW_k]theFOAT.com by this Sunday, July 19th.

a. The money collected for camping passes will allow the staffing of gate personal to allow campers access into and out of the track after the normal event hours.
4. Friday Entry: Those wishing to camp on Friday have the option of participating in the Friday night Test-n-Tune event from 6-11pm. This would require purchasing tickets at the gate for this event. For those not participating in the Friday night Test-n-Tune event, you may enter between 11:00-11:30pm at no charge.
¼-MILE DRAG RACING: While Marion County Raceway has one of the longest shutdown areas of all the tracks in Ohio, the first 600-800 feet after the finish line are not in the best condition. This area has had the asphalt scraped with the intention of repaving with new asphalt. While there are no potholes, there are some patterns in the scraping that can cause the skinny front tires to exhibit bad behavior. Past this area, the shutdown pavement is in satisfactory condition. If you are racing a vehicle with standard width front tires or you use a parachute, the shutdown area should pose no issues. If you have a RWD vehicle with skinny front tires and are running 8s or quicker, you should consider an 1/8-mile class. All of the following classes are confirmed to run full ¼-mile:
a. All IDRC Index classes 12.5-, 11.5-, 10.5- and 9.5-second
b. The Following IDRC Heads-Up Classes (non-GTR)
i. Stock Appearing
ii. Morrison Fabrication Street Eliminator
iii. Exedy Racing Stock Appearing
iv. Haltech Street 32
c. The Following R35 GT-R Classes
i. GTR Stock
ii. GTR Stock Appearing
iii. GTR Eliminator
The following classes will run 1/8-mile* (unless all competitors in the class are comfortable with the shutdown area available):
a. FIC Quick 32
b. Pro RWD
c. GTR Pro Street
d. GTR Quick
ONLINE TICKET SALES ONLY: Please get tickets ASAP. So that we are prepared for the number of racers and crew that will be attending the event, we need participants to purchase their tickets this week so that we can have enough facilities and food on hand. The amount of presale for each class will also let us know if we have full fields or if we must consider the combining of any classes. Please get your tickets this week as the sponsors need to also decide if they will be attending the event and in what capacity.
COVID19 Considerations: The health of the Shootout attendees is our first priority. Social distancing will be enforced at The Shootout this year. We are asking all attendees to wear masks whenever possible and to bring hand sanitizer. If you don’t feel 100% or you have come in contact with those infected Covid19, please skip The Shootout this year.
