Series Rules: All competitors will be permitted to run in one of the following Series and points earned in that series will not transfer to another series if the competitor chooses to change:

The three series to earn points will be:

Street Sedan Series: Open to all cars that run in the following Eliminators.  Quick Eliminator 10.50 – 12.99, Hot Street 13.00 – 14.99, and Street Eliminator 15.00 and slower.  Cars will earn points in each Eliminator to be part of the Street Series.  Willowbank Raceway reserves the right to change the Eliminator cut-offs at any time throughout the year to ensure equal point scoring opportunities for all competitors.

Street Powder Puff Series: Open to ladies only.  Ladies who choose to run the Powder Puff Series are not permitted to run the same vehicle in the Street or Bike Series.  A vehicle competing in Street Sedan or Street Bike series driven by another person may compete with a different lady driver in the Street Powder Puff Series.

Street Bike Series: Open to all bikes 9.50 and slower.

Any vehicle that contests the Track Championship during the 2018 season will not be permitted to run in the Street Sedan Series, Street Powder Puff Series or Street Bike Series, however the competitor may run any other vehicle at these Events.

Once a vehicle has been raced in the Sedan, Powder Puff or Bike Series and then competes in a Track Championship round, the points earned in the relative Series will remain with the entrant only if contested by another vehicle.

Please Note:

• Gates open at 4.00pm.  Qualifying from 4.30pm

• Street Sedan, Powder Puff and Street Bike will all have the Top eight for the final

• Competitors must hold and produce a current IHRA licence to use a IHRA number

• In the event of a tie on points in any position in the top eight, qualifying positions will be determined by the better performer at the final round of the Series.  The better performer will be the competitor who lasts the longest in their elimination rounds.  If there is still a tie on points the better performer will be the competitor who performs best in relation to their dial-in on their last elimination run.  If there is still a tie on points the better performer will be the competitor who has the better reaction time.

• If the final round is not run due to weather the tie breaks will be determined by the previous round completed of the series.

All competitors, even if running the same vehicle must have a separate Street Series number.

Those who don't have a permanent race number will be given a special "Street Series" number.  If you are not an IHRA member you will need to purchase an on day licence at the track.

The series commences on 10 February 2018.  Please check the website for further dates.

The top eight qualifiers of Street Sedan, Powder Puff and Bike Eliminator will be presented with a specially designed "Street Championship Qualifier" trophy.

We have allocated Prizemoney for the Street Series, Bike Eliminator and Powder Puff brackets, with $1,000 to the winner and $200 to the runner up.  The bracket winners will become the Willowbank Street Sedan Champion, Willowbank Street Bike Champion and Willowbank Powder Puff Champion for 2018 and will receive the same "Track Championship" Trophy as our major meeting champions.  Runner-up will receive their cheque on the night of the Shootout, and the winner trophies and cheques will be presented at Willowbank Raceway’s Track Championship Presentation.  The winners will receive free entry to all Street Series events only and a Special pass which admits two people to all events at Willowbank Raceway for the following season.

Points for all brackets are earned on the basis of five points for each race that you win.  As well, five bonus points are awarded for entering an event, provided you do at least one run in the eliminations.  Points updates are available on our website site.  www.willowbankraceway.com.au.

If you earned points in the 2017 Street Series, you do not need to notify us unless you change the series you wish to earn points in or to change your number.  This needs to be done prior to you earning any points.

If you are new or are changing series, fill out the following details NOW and send it back to us.  Remember that we must have your form before you can earn points.  Forms handed in at an event will not earn points for that round.
