Greetings open track enthusiasts! The Mustang Club of Central Iowa and NQS Performance www.NQSperformance.com would like to invite you to the Mid America Motorplex (MAM) on July 17-18, 2010, for a weekend of high speed driving. We are proud to celebrate this event’s ninth anniversary this year, and we have added some special attractions for your enjoyment.

Saturday and Sunday will both be high speed open track days. 20-minute sessions will commence after the drivers meeting. Expect 5-6 sessions per day. Many drivers wish to record lap times to compare from year-to-year, so timing transponders will be available on Saturday if you desire. Times will be posted throughout the day to keep track of your sessions.

Sunday will be traditional open track touring without timing. 20-minute sessions will commence after the drivers meeting.

Back this year will be Roush Mustang, F-150, Focus and Cougar owners to a reunion of these fine vehicles. A special group photo is planned for the Roush vehicles on Saturday.

This year's Honored Marque will be the Fox Body Mustangs, 1979-1993. These Mustangs are, as a whole, responsible for the renewed interest in performance Mustangs we all enjoy today. We will honor them with a group photo on Sunday.

MAM’s photographer will also be on hand Saturday, so if you’d like you will be able to purchase a shot of your car at speed to hang on your home or office wall.

Please take note of the special early registration pricing. There is a significant savings for registering before the July 1st deadline, and an even greater savings to attend both days. We have again held firm on our pricing, despite the fact that costs continue to increase. Also please take note of the revised helmet requirements detailed in the General Rules. This may affect some of you with older helmets.

The Mid America Motorplex is conveniently located along Interstate 29 at the Glenwood exit, approximately 15 miles south of Interstate 80 near the Omaha/Council Bluffs metro area. The Omaha area has many attractions to offer, including the Henry Doorly Zoo, Rainforest, Aquarium and IMAX theatre, Strategic Air Command Museum, the Omaha Royals baseball team, Bluffs Run greyhound track and casino, Harvey’s Casino, Ameristar Casino, the Old Market shopping and dining district, and many others. Bring the whole family to MCCI@MAM 9 for an enjoyable weekend in the heartland!

General Rules

Cars will be divided into groups at tech. We will divide the entrants up into run groups of similar abilities. We will have run groups for raw beginners up to the pros, so be assured you can come and enjoy the track with drivers of similar skills. This is an opportunity for you to drive your car at speed, in a safe, controlled environment. This is not a competitive event. Safety is our paramount concern. Instructors will be available for first-timers.

All cars must pass tech inspection. Tech will be available at the track on Friday, July 16th, from 4-6 PM. Tech will also be available at the track on Saturday, July 17th from 6:30 AM- 9:00 AM, and on Sunday July 18th from 6:30 AM- 9:00 AM. In addition, early pre-event tech will be held at Dewey Ford in Ankeny, Iowa, at 7:00 PM on Wednesday, July 14th. Contact Doug Hammond at 515-288-1308 or dshammond@q.com to sign up for early tech. If you can make one of the early tech sessions, it will help to reduce the lines at the track.

When you arrive at tech, you and your car should be in ready-to-run condition. You are responsible for the condition of your car. Fill out the tech form beforehand and check off each area as you inspect it. Remove all loose items from the trunk, passenger compartment, etc. Bring the helmet you will run. Insurance regulations dictate that all helmets must meet Snell M2000, M2005, SA2000, SA2005, M2010 or SA2010 specs. WE WILL NO LONGER ACCEPT SNELL 95 RATED HELMETS. There will not be any helmets to borrow. You must bring your own. Tech inspection will include, but is not limited to, the following items: Battery hold down, throttle return spring(s), suspension wear and play, brakes, tires, fluids, radiator catch can, seatbelts, helmet, and no loose articles in car. Any in-car cameras/video cameras must be securely mounted. No hand held in-car cameras will be allowed. Roll bars are required for convertibles. No open-wheel cars or motorcycles allowed. A single adult passenger will be allowed, with the appropriate helmet and seat belts. Minor passengers must have a signed parent/guardian waiver. Exact tech requirements will be mailed to you with your confirmation packet upon receipt of your registration.

Drivers meetings are mandatory. Each driver will receive a wristband indicating that they have been to the drivers meeting. No driver will be allowed onto the track without the appropriate wristband. This is not a racing event. Please note that any damage done to the facility, any of its parts, to other drivers or their cars and property, is your responsibility. Let’s be careful out there. You are financially responsible for any damage you may cause.

Registration is per driver. Multiple drivers per car will be assigned to separate run groups, and each must pay the registration fees. Drivers must be at least 18 years old and have a valid driver’s license.

Car numbers will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis upon receipt of payment. Payment must accompany registration to reserve your number and spot. Numbers must be at least 8 inches high, and must be visible on each side of your car by corner workers. “Taped” numbers are acceptable.

Early Registration Deadline is July 1st, 2010. Payment must be received or postmarked by this date or the late registration fee will be assessed. Register early to ensure you have a spot. The event will be held rain or shine. We have already rented the track for the weekend, so we will use it.

No cash refunds will be issued after July 1st, 2010. We may, however, grant you credit for use at next year’s event. Refund requests received in writing, on or before July 1st will be honored and charged a $20.00 fee to cover administrative costs.

When we receive your registration form and payment, we will send you a detailed confirmation packet, along with a car number and hotel info. Room reservations must be made directly with the hotels. If you have any questions, please contact one of the following people:
