PRO
STICK Racing â
WELCOME!
Real Race Cars Have A Clutch! By popular demand, in 1996 a few long time
stick shift bracket racers got together and held a race at the famed 75-80
dragway in Maryland. The class became
known as Pro Stick. Over the years
since, this Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia based group continues to
attract new cars and grow in spectator popularity. This site is intended to provide some general information to our
racers and fans. You will find current
news, a list of our supporters, our rules, the schedule, race results, and
series points. For additional
information other than what is provided below, or to purchase our Real Race
Cars logo T-Shirts etc., please phone 301-416-2319.
PRO STICK CURRENT NEWS
The site was last updated on March 31, 2014
The schedule is final in the usual spot
below.
As you may have noticed on our Facebook page,
the April issue of RPM magazine has done an article about our group, and Ed
Brady is the cover shot. Other cars
pictured within the article include Frank Jenkins, Freddie Leyland, Greg
Corbin, Brian Barker, Matt Bergenstock, Dan Hoyler, Larry Carasea, Michael
Ford, both Charcalla cars, Wayne Whittington, Fred House, Leonard Long, and
Eric Kitchen. Eric ordered thirty
copies of the magazine and will give one each to the drivers who are
pictured. The magazines are available
at Walmart Supercenters, Books a Million, and News Center stores.
ARC Racecars continues to sponsor the
reaction time award. New for 2014
though is that you must display the ARC decal on both sides of the car in order
to receive the money. Eric will have
the decals available in his trailer.
ARC also now offers either a bolt on or weld on header collector
retention device which has been approved by NHRA to comply with the new
rule. For more information call ARC at
717-624-8181.
The banquet was held on 2/22/14. A sincere thank you from Eric Kitchen to all
who contributed to the very nice gift that he received at the banquet. Todd has pictures posted on his web site
from the banquet. Visit www.tdspeedshotz.com to check them
out. Todd is also taking orders for
calendars. We ran out at the banquet as
they were a big hit and more are needed.
Contact Todd through his web site to order yours. The couple of photos below from the banquet

Some sponsors updates:
The bounty program: Phil Marshall is one of our original sponsors. In recognition of that, and to promote his
newest division to Marshall Automotive, Gravely Lawn Tractor Sales and Service,
the bounty program will undergo a name change.
The program will be called the Marshall Gravely ‘we keep you cutting’
Bonus. New decals will be available at
the track. You are required to display
them on both sides of the car to be eligible for the bonus. Remember our long time sponsor for your automotive

** Al
Matteucci:
Fellow racer Al Matteucci was seriously injured in a racing accident
on November 2, 2008. Al is in great
spirits and wants to get back in the car.
However, he will have an extensive recovery period. Al will need a very expensive wheelchair
during his rehabilitation. Our group is
selling decals in an effort to offset the cost of the wheelchair. The decal as pictured above is 4 ½ inches in
diameter. They are being sold for a
suggested donation of $20 each, but any smaller or larger donation will be
accepted in return for a decal. All of
this money goes directly to Al. The
decals will be available at the track through Paul Hillier or Eric
Kitchen. You may also send a check made
payable to Al to Pro Stick Racing, 115 Orchard Drive, Boonsboro MD 21713. Please state the number of decals wanted.
Al has moved in to his new home in Virginia. The address is below, he is about twenty
minutes away from the dragstrip in Manassas.
Al continues to make progress slowly.

PRO STICK CLASS RULES AND SAFETY
INFORMATION
WARNING
Drag racing is hazardous. Injury to participants or spectators is possible in all areas of the racetrack. Promoters, organizers, etc. assume no liability for injuries. You are attending the event at your own risk. Your attendance acknowledges your acceptance of all risks associated with racing, and releases all other parties from any liability.
Always keep your speeds down in the pit area to 5 MPH or less. There are spectators, small children, golf carts, etc. moving around all the time, and they are not always paying attention.
1. The vehicle
must use a transmission that is clutch operated off of the starting line. A clutchless type transmission is also
permitted (lenco type or similar).
2. The class ET cut-off is 7.50 through 11.49 in the quarter
mile. (4.75 through 7.39 eighth mile)
RULE EXCEPTION for cars
running 11.50 through 11.99 (7.40 through 7.65 1/8 mile). These cars may run if you meet any one
of the following criteria stated in 2a, 2b, or 2c.
2a) If you traveled with the group from track to
track running at least five events in 2007, and at least five events in 2008,
you are grandfathered in and you may run.
2b) If your car is a legal, currently registered
NHRA or IHRA stock class car, you may run.
2c) If your vehicle is a 1979 model year or
older, you may run.
3. The class will run on a five tenths bracket style full tree with
handicap dial in.
4. Absolutely no
type of delay devices are permitted, electronic or otherwise.
5. MSD type
ignition and/or 2 step / 3 step is permitted.
6. No street
legal tires are permitted on the rear axle.
7. No dragsters
allowed.
8. No front
wheel drive vehicles allowed.
9. No hydraulic
throw-out bearings with release buttons allowed.
10. Once in
eliminations, you must drive the same car in all rounds. This rule does not apply to a run-off of a
rain-out of a previous event.
11. Courtesy staging is recommended. Wait until both cars are pre-staged before
either car stages.
12. NHRA, IHRA, or other host track sanctioning
body, and local rules apply.
13. Absolutely no use of drugs or alcohol will
be tolerated.
14. The use of nitrous oxide is NOT permitted by
anyone.
15. In appreciation of our sponsors, it is
suggested that their decals be displayed on both sides of the car.
16. During random elimination rounds, once you
pull in to the staging lanes and have secured your spot, do not move your car
in an effort to avoid running any particular opponent, or in an effort to
run a particular opponent.
ADDITIONAL GENERAL INFORMATION
It is
the responsibility of the driver to take their car to the pre-race tech.
Inspection. The host track officials
will check driver credentials/safety equipment, and vehicle safety equipment as
described in the NHRA/IHRA rulebook.
The track may disqualify any driver or vehicle for failure to meet these
requirements. All drivers must be a
dues paying member of the sanctioning bodies of NHRA and IHRA. The decision of host track officials
regarding win/loss disputes, crossing of boundaries, or infractions of any
rules (sanctioning body or local) is final.
Safety Suggestions For Your Own Good:
1. If you are
unfamiliar with a track, always look around before making any runs to get
yourself familiar with the surroundings and operation of the track. Pay special attention to the shut down area
of the drag strip should any emergency type situation occur.
2. Consider
wearing a SFI neck collar no matter how fast your car is.
3. Tighten down
your seat AND shoulder belts before every run.
Loose belts will do you no good.
Warren
Frank is working a deal to get a group discount for anyone who is interested in
purchasing a Hans device. A sportsman
model is available that you can easily put on yourself after you are in the
car. ARC also offers bolt on or weld on
header collector retention devices as approved by NHRA. Call Warren at 717-624-8181 for more
information.
Event Registration and Drivers Meeting:
The racer entry fee for all races will be $45 unless
otherwise posted on this web site per event.
The entry fee is paid at the gate.
Anyone can run with the group as long as they meet the specific track
rules, and our group rules. Check the
white board in Eric’s trailer for pertinent information pertaining to each
event. You can locate the trailer by
looking for the Pro / Stick Racing flag at the yellow Chevelle H118. Make sure Eric knows you are at the track
for tracking of your points. Let Eric
know of breakage if you can not run.
There are no refunds for breakage if you pulled in to the staging lanes
to attempt at least one time run.
The drivers meeting is usually 15 minutes after first
round of eliminations at Eric’s trailer, please plan accordingly. First round of eliminations is always random
pairings. At the meeting, we will
establish our race ladder sheet by drawing cards. We use a bracket type ladder sheet as is used at local tracks.
Lane choice may be discussed and determined by a coin flip.
Bye Runs: Of all the drivers appearing for first round of eliminations, the
driver with the best reaction time during all time run sessions will receive
the bye run if there is an odd number of cars.
Bye runs needed for all other rounds go to the winning driver having the
best reaction time in the previous round.
Depending on specific track rules, bye run cars may or may not have to
go down the track, but under full power is at the drivers option. Bye run cars always go to the top of the
ladder for the next round. One bye run
per car per event maximum.
Break Runs: After the ladder has been established at the meeting, if a car
cannot make a run, the competitor gets a single run and this does not count as
a bye run. Single runs are conducted as stated in the sanctioning rulebook.
Win/Loss: If you lose, you are out even if your competition breaks after
you lost. An example of an exception to
this would be as stated in the sanctioning rulebook under disqualifications
regarding crossing of boundaries. Also,
you or your crew must check your dial on the scoreboards before pre-staging. Be proactive and be responsible, there have
been cases where the track makes mistakes.
No reruns due to incorrect dial-ins.
Rain: Many races have a posted rain date on the schedule. If no elimination rounds start, it can be
expected that we will run the event on the posted rain date. In the event of rain after eliminations
start, a decision will be made depending on the particular situation. Some example situations would include:
1. If a few
rounds have been completed, we will usually split the purse among the remaining
drivers.
2. If we are
down to the last round or two, the purse may be split, or we may run the cars
off at another date as decided on by the remaining drivers vote. If we have a tied vote, the cars are to be
run off at a later date.
3. If an early
round starts and it rains before the round is complete, a decision will be made
depending on the exact situation.
Winners so far during the round will receive their points.
4. If a late
round starts and it rains before the round is complete, a decision will be made
depending on the exact situation.
Winners so far during the round will receive their points. Drivers still in will vote to make a
decision. If we have a tied vote, the
cars are to be run off at a later date.
Other:
Make
sure Eric has your current address and car number. Don’t use your engine size or the year of your car for your
number. That is not a unique idea and
duplicate numbers show up in the computer.
Keep in mind that the track employees change. They may not know how our program
works. Staging officials may need
reminded that we are on a ladder, etc.
From time to time, tracks at the start of our first time trial will by
mistake give us a Pro tree. If that
happens, do not go down the track.
Instead just back out, cut the engine off, inform the starter
accordingly that we run on a full five tenths tree.
Clarification
on car counts:
The 64 maximum car count is no longer. If there are over 64 cars, we will run two
rounds of random before holding our meeting and going on a ladder.
Points:
There is no charge to join the points tracking
program. The points program is just for
fun and bragging rights. It is a good
idea to track your own points as a double check and let Eric know if issues. Each driver receives 10 show-up points per
event. You will get the points for
showing up with the intent of running with the group even if you broke before
eliminations, or you do not qualify as described above. Each driver also receives 10 points for each
round won including bye runs or singles if your competition broke. The reaction winner of each event will
receive 5 points. Additional points are
awarded at each event as follows:
Ø an
extra 11 points to the winner
Ø an
extra 7 points to the runner-up
Ø an
extra 3 points for a semi-final loss
Tie breaker rule to determine the series
champion (if necessary):
If at the end of the season there are multiple
drivers tied in points for the championship, we will determine the champion
from those tied drivers by naming the driver with the most event wins
throughout the season.
