A strict closed hood policy is in effect until vehicle has completed the required three back to back passes. No refueling once vehicle leaves on cruise. Engines must remain off during cool down. External cooling by any means is prohibited. Any engine adjustments or repairs are prohibited. No laptops in vehicle during the cool down period.

Air may not be added to tires at anytime during the back to back passes. Vehicles are required to make all three passes to complete event. Any vehicle not able to make all three passes will be disqualified. After the racer has completed a pass they must return immediately to the staging lanes for the next pass. Any vehicles trying to gain additional time for cool down between passes by not returning to staging lanes immediately will be disqualified. The only exception to this rule is vehicles that must use a parachute if required by trap speed. The driver is the only person allowed to push vehicle in staging lanes between runs. No laptops allowed in during race portion of event or in staging lanes.
