FAQ's

Like other events held at outdoor venues, there is a chance that we will have to cancel due to rain, severe wind, and/or lightning. In the case that an event is canceled due to weather before or within the first hour of hot track time, racers and spectators will be allowed to put the value of their paid admission toward a future entry. NO REFUNDS WILL BE ISSUED - ONLY RAINCHECKS. Racers and spectators MUST keep their wristband or tech card, or show a receipt for a pre-paid ticket for the date of the canceled event, and present one of these items at the time of re-entry.

We allow a limited number of photo credentials per event. These credentials will be available prior to each event on our ticket page. Once they sell out, additional photographers will NOT be allowed at that specific event. (The cost of each credential will be the same as a spectator ticket). An annual photo credential packet must be filled out prior to shooting. Anyone caught shooting without a media pass for the event in progress will be asked to leave without a refund. 

Ride-alongs are allowed in drift cars. Long pants, at least a t-shirt (no tank tops/tube tops/crop tops), and full-coverage shoes are required for drivers and passengers. To ride along, passengers must pay an additional $5 and sign a waiver. 

Ride-alongs are allowed in drag race cars running 14.00 seconds or slower. Drag race passengers must sign the tech card and a waiver, and wear full coverage attire as mentioned above.

No outside food or beverages are allowed except sealed water bottles. Food vendors are on site for all spectator events.

If the admission to the event you will attend is more than the price you paid for the canceled event, you'll pay only the difference. 

Example: A drifter paid $80 for the canceled event but wishes to run west track & skidpad at a future event which costs $130 - they will only pay the $50 difference.

Example 2: A drag racer paid $45 for test and tune but wishes to run Sportsman class at a future event which costs $75 - they will pay only the $30 difference.

If the admission to the event you wish to attend is less than the price you paid, we will not issue a refund for the difference.

Example: A spectator paid $25 to attend a Drift N Drag that was canceled and wants to attend a Friday Night Drags which costs $20. We will not refund the $5 difference. 

This varies by event. Please send us a message so we can find out for you.

All other circumstances are handled on a case-by-case basis. Contact us by sending a message or find a GoFast supervisor during the event.
