yes, usually the heats are 5min. and they normally run 3 rounds of qualifying.

Get this race under your belt and pay close attention to everything going on. After a few races, you'll start to figure out just how it all works. It's really simple to be honest. Remember to have fun. I know I did when I went racing.

My first race I ever went to I got there 30 minutes late. I drove 1.5 hours to get there. The RD told me I was too late to enter the race but he said to stick around and when they are done, I could run my car on the track. Being I missed out on that race, it gave me a entire day to hang out learn and figure out exactly how it all worked. I asked a ton of questions throughout the day. It made a huge difference. 3 years later, I was un-touchable at the track in 8th scale. I won every club race and pretty much all the big events the track hosted. MANY years later, I have since retired from racing. The cost to go FAST was killing my wallet. LOL

Again, have fun with it. It's a great hobby to be in and most are very helpful at the tracks I've been too so I'm sure it's no different at Willcott. Matter of fact, Find Mark Chrisman or Kelby Roberts and tell them Greg H told you to MAKE them help you. LOL They'll get a good laugh I'm sure. Those 2 guys excelled faster then any person I've ever met getting started. Now they are some of the fastest in the region!

good luck and have fun.
