RULE REVISIONS & CHANGES
In order to maintain the most level playing field possible, MIR will constantly monitor the performance numbers of the numerous combinations in this class. From time to time, it may be necessary to adjust minimum weights to help promote class parity. These changes will be made if a particular combination is deemed too dominant. Racers should take this into consideration whenever they are constructing their cars. Also MIR reserves the right to change Outlaw Drag Radial back to 1/4 mile at any time during the season, with one week’s notice. Any rule revisions deemed necessary by MIR will be officially posted on www.mirdrag.com before the event in which they become effective. Be sure to check the website often for changes throughout the year.
