What items are your concern?

You wont need a special license to race at MIR since this is mainly a street car event.

We also have some tolerance on roll bars as well.

Blankets and diapers are not required in the Index or ET classes, only the Heads-Up classes.

Only a month away!

We look forward to seeing alot of DSM's at the track that day! We need more representtaion by the DSM's at IREV.

Also remember, if you enter the E.T. Bracket class or an Index class and lose, you can still make as many time runs the rest of the day as you want. We will give you your moneys worth at IREV!

You will be fine with the cage, if the battery is in the trunk just try your best to mount a kill switch. If battery is under hood, then you are fine.

Hope to see you at IREV!

Yes, the IREV events are basically our Import Only version of the WCF. Same rules for the Heads-Up and Index classes.

See ya at IREV!

I guess the engine diaper thing is a must ? Also If a car has the light weight carbon hatch with a lexan back it won't qualify for any of the heads up classes ?

Yes the engine diaper or bellypan is a must in the heads-up classes. Its not that tough to make a bellypan, a good fab shop should be able to make on in half a day and it will make the car much safer for you and the racers that run behind you if there was ever a problem. Safety first!

Carbon fiber hatch is permitted but the window must remain glass.

Hope the info helps

How about we get some of those DSM's off jackstands and come out to support Jason's event?? Jason Miller and MIR are by FAR some of Import Racing's biggest advocates. He genuinely cares and wants to see more of us out there! My Boost Boyz Racing/Modern Automotive Dynamics Toyota Corolla is broke, but we'll still be there respresentin' DSM's with Wendy's Wings! Plus, if you guys don't come out, you won't get to meet Don Omar who played in (and produced the music for) the Fast Five. He'll be there racing the Blue Zone Celica against some of the nation's fastest rear wheel drive Imports. Check out IREVRACING.COM, there's a class for everyone, fast or slow!! Come on out and have a good time watching/racing fast Imports at Import Revolution this weekend!!
