Truck Racing
Aimed
at light truck devotees, these colourful vehicles
are providing plenty of unusual
entertainment at the Blue Ribbon
Raceway.Scrutineers and Team members have
formulated a set of specifications and safety
regulations for the trucks, not only to keep costs
down, but to make for an even field. This has
proven successful so far with the trucks racing
four wide on many occasions.
Specifications include:
* Petrol engines not to exceed 345 cubic inches
* Standard Carburettor as per factory installation
* a limit of 20 litres of fuel to be carried
* transmission can be manual or auto
* dual wheels, with a minimum wheelbase of 12
feet, with no added weight allowed at the rear of
the truck.
Safety regulations include:
* rollcage to be made from two inch diameter black
steel pipe, mounted at six points to the chassis
* interior rollcage must contain a Nascar type
frame on the driver's side door
* passenger door must have slide bolt lock to shut
* seat to be made of fibreglass or aluminium with
a five-point racing harness fitted
* drivers must wear approved full-cover racing
suits and helmets.
The truck racing team is programmed at all race
meetings at the Blue Ribbon Raceway.
The team are more than happy to chat to any person
interested in joining their team and will assist
wherever possible. The most common
description of the experience from those driving
in this team
is "awesome"
