http://hunnertcarheadsup.com/ The Hunnert Car Heads-Up 6 will be June 6-7, 2014 at the historic Great Lakes Dragaway in Union Grove, WI!!! That's right, Two fun filled days of traditional hot rod drag racing. (stay tuned for details and schedules) We have also again partnered with the Meltdown Drags (July 19, 20, 21, 2014) at the historic Byron Dragway (Byron, IL) for a special nostalgia drag series – The Heads Up * Meltdown Vintage Drag Series - Compete at both events and get a special waterslide decal that only racers can get. We are also welcoming back the Gasser Magazine Gasser Nationals North! This is REAL drag racing, NOT exhibition runs! *1965 and earlier ONLY. If your car is newer than 1965, you’re not racing* Some things to look forward to at the Hunnert Car Heads-Up: * Handwritten time slips! * Real flagman starts! * Mini bike drag races! * Heads up racing with gassers, A/FX cars, hot rods, dragsters, and even those low n’ slow customs! * Car show in The Pits for traditional hot rods & customs only! 8 Simple rules that everyone (14 seconds and slower) should be able to follow: 1. Seat belts 2. All lugnuts installed 3. Metal oil pressure lines 4. No fuel pressure gauges in the cabin without an isolator 5. Dual throttle return springs 6. Non-glass coolant overflow can 7. No more than 12″ of rubber fuel line total 8. Closed toe shoes and long pants If your car is quicker than 14 sec, you’ll have to look up the NHRA rules, but you should not have any trouble running at the Heads Up. We like fast cars. Tech inspection opens at 9am. Racing starts as soon as the first 2 cars go through tech, and won’t stop until the last car quits running. *9am to Noon is Test n’ tune *11am (Saturday) – mandatory driver’s meeting. *Noon – Minibike drags. *1pm Round 1 – handwritten time slips, waterslide decals Round 3 starts round-robin eliminations $15 for Spectators $20 for ’65 and earlier cars who want to park in the pits, but not race $30 to Race $50 for open track Test & Tune Friday and all day Saturday $20 to camp – no water/electric hook-up, but there will be overnight security Hope to see you there!

i cant wait. this race is very cool. we are all very fortunate to have two cool events so close to one another.
What a wonderful idea real drag racing without all the electronic stuff. This is what it's all about. Jimbo
Wow, the new HAMB will take some getting used to! Heads Up is fast approaching though! Maybe by then we'll all have this figured out!
Could someone post up a few details regarding the minibike drags? Namely, can my 13 yr. old boy run his Lil' Indian, or is he too young?
Ok, that's fine either way. Thanks for checking. I guess the same rules apply to passengers in the cars as well. He was too young to take a pass down the track last year too. He's going to have to wait until 2017.
5pm on Friday for Test and Tune. Gates Saturday at 9am. Tech at 10am. I believe they will open the lanes up shortly thereafter. Drivers meeting at 11am at the Sunoco sign. Mini Bikes at noon. Lanes open up at 1 again. Eliminations at 5pm.
It's unfortunate we only had Friday to attend. Paid $30 to enter, only to watch the few pre '65 vehicles there race (maybe a dozen?) and mainly all '80's and newer race. Not what was stated, not what we expected. Stayed until 9:30 hoping it would get better, but ended up leaving pretty disappointed. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Sat. was a great time. The Czars pulled it off again. The gasser nats. tied in works great. Already looking foward to next year.
Way cool day at the races, thanks Czars, our club brother Bill Astrouski won the 14.00 and slower class in Big Vics 1930 model A Tudor. Nice!
