The exact length of track will be determined by space available. Unlike the TSA rules, a guideline is not used to secure dragster to the track. The lane is 6 inches wide with a 1-inch tall wall on each side. There may be bumps where sections fit together. An Impulse race system, which uses a student's reaction time to launch their vehicle, will be connected directly to the finish gate. If a race time is not recorded, event coordinators will determine if the car should race again. If the cars design is a factor, it will not race again. (Example: light mass of vehicle causes it to fly off track.)
