On behalf of the Rotary Club of Drayton Valley thank you for your interest and involvement in the 6th Annual Thunder in the Valley Drag Race. We are excited to bring the sport of drag-racing to our community. We are additionally excited to dedicate all proceeds of this event toward Rotary projects.

We have had a remarkable response from the business and volunteer community in the way of sponsorships, assistance, and donations. We ask that you support the volunteer groups and sponsors not only this weekend, but throughout the rest of the year, as we would not be here without them. Thunder in the Valley Drag Race operates on a volunteer basis. Therefore, we ask your consideration and respect when dealing with those involved.

We have been the recipient of some excellent assistance and guidance in organizing our 6th Annual Drag Race. Even though there will inevitably be some glitches during the event, we hope to see the patience that we know you all possess during any of these inconveniences. Please bear with us and put petty grievances and personal agendas aside. Your attention and consideration will help to make the 6th Annual Thunder in the Valley Drag Race a huge success.

TECH: Will be in your pit.

A Volunteer with a Bull horn will call classes beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Your TECH sticker includes run cards for Saturday and Sunday. They will be verified in staging. A closed FM Band will be used for class calls and track information; the frequency will be announced at the event.

There is a Food Concession in the Pits. There will be a Pancake Breakfast on Saturday and Sunday mornings for everyone. (minimal charge)

We have a fire pit for our use on Saturday night. If you want to join us for some social time, please do.

Grand Tire and KAL Tire will have a tire repair service available for both Saturday and Sunday. They are located on the main grounds. We have two oil and anti-freeze collection points on site. To protect our pavement, PLEASE use plywood under your jack stands. We have provided plywood at the oil/anti-freeze collection site. Just a reminder, when your race vehicle is running there must be someone in the driver's seat.

The large "R" is to be displayed on your tow vehicle if you leave the venue and return. Please print the sign here and bring it with you to Drayton Valley. Please show at the gate.
