Race City.
Street racing is extremely dangerous and one of the most irresponsible driving habits imaginable. To this end Race City is continuing with its program to keep street drags alive in Calgary but in a more appropriate environment. Secret Street roars to life every April on Race City's dragstrip. The intent of Secret Street is to provide an opportunity for street racers and drag enthusiasts to race their cars every Friday night at Race City, thereby reducing the amount of street racing in Calgary. Race City provides an informal environment making it easy and fun for anyone to participate. Vehicles must be 'Street Legal' with proper working muffler systems - and they must be properly registered and insured. All vehicles must meet IHRA safety regulations by passing a simple tech inspection before racing. Racers must have a valid drivers license and must wear a helmet with a rating of SNELL 90 or higher. Cars, trucks, and motorcycles are all welcome. The same timing and scoring system used for regular drag racing events is utilized for Secret Street - racers use the 'Christmas Tree' light system and receive time slips detailing reaction times and speed. The water box is open for use. Gates open at 6:30 p.m., tech starts at 7:30 p.m. and runs until 10:30 p.m. Secret Street racing begins at 9:00 p.m. and can run as late as 1:00 a.m., depending on the number of participants and level of interest. | |||||||
