- The car impound will take place next Friday, February 14th, from 6 – 8 pm, in the Family Life Center at Mt Tabor UMC (the big gym). For those who are not familiar with impound, this process includes the car being checked to ensure it meets requirements to race.
- The dimensions, weight, axle slots and tires are all looked over and measured to ensure they meet the guidelines. Please click the following link to ensure you are in compliance

When your car is finalized it will be assigned a number and put in the holding area. It cannot be touched again until race time. (impound). Once the car is impounded the only people to touch the car are the Boy Scout “runners”, the staff only when they need to touch a car for race purposes and your child when they place it on the track. Every car that will be racing must be impounded by 8pm Friday.

Around 11:15 it will be transitioned to lunch items being offered until approximately 1 PM, at which time there will be only snacks available.
