Street Legal Drags: Competition of bracket racing street legal cars or simply test n tune for street legal cars.
Test n Tune: No competition. Open to street legal and non-street legal cars.
For several years, the Fontana crew did not do a good job handling the TnT weekend events. There were too many cars (get maybe 2-3 runs in over 10hrs) and the prep was terrible. I just stuck with the specialty events there like PSCA. For an event like this the track is prepped very well. I always bog to 1.5x 60 footers with my 17in MT ET Street Radials.

Can I run in a PSCA event just for fun to get more passes? Or do I need to join the league and pay fees etc?

Running at this event will not neccessarily provde more passes then a TnT or private track event. What it will provide are quality passes. Provided you are running at least a drag radial, traction will not be an issue.
The cost to become a member is $40 for the year. You are permitted to participate at one event without joining the membership. However, there will be a $10 "fee" added to your class entry fee. Here is the breakdown:
Tech card $60
Mustange Madness class entry fee $40 if you become a member or $50 if you do not.
Membership $40 (if you choose to)
Total would be $140 to run in Mustang Madness for the weekend and become a member or $110 choosing not to become a member.
You will get 2-3 qualifying passes on Saturday. On Sunday the eliminations start. If you race in one of the bracket classes like B-1 or Street Muscle, you get 2-3 passes on Saturday, 1 pass sunday morning, then start eliminations soon after.
I typiclly run two classes to get a decent amount of passes on a properly prepped track. So to race in two classes it will cost me $60 (first tech card) + $40 (second tech card) + $40 (MM class entry fee) + $40 (Street Muscle entry fee) + $40 (membership), total $220. For this I will get a minimum of 7 runs. If there is time to get 3 qualifying passes on Saturday I will get a minimum of 9 runs. If I win reounds on Sunday I will get that many more passes, plus the opportunity to win money.
As for stickers, you will need to put event and class sponsor stickers on the sides and lower windshield. They are vinal and are easy to put on and pull off. I do it all year long.
If you are interested in going you can pit with us in Mustang Madness. I will walk you though any questions you have.

Thanks for the offer. I am interested in checking out the event. Are you planning on running all the events?

You are welcome. Yes. I will be racing at all of the PSCA and NMCW West events. Plus, I will be racing at all West Coast Hot Rod and Saturday Night Nitro events at Famoso that do not conflict with the events at Fontana.
