MIROCK Brock's Performance
Street E.T. Purse Flyer Correction
The purse
for the Brock's Performance Street E.T. class at ALL MIROCK events is $1,000
to win, $300 to runner-up, $100 to semis, $50 to 1/4 finals, and $25 to 1/8
finals. Entry Fee is $50 (one-day) or $80 (two-day). The 2013 brochure for
MIROCK events at MIR & Atco that was just mailed out to the mailing list
still has last year's purse and entry fees on it, and we apologize about
that typo. So, yes the purse is now $1,000 to win in Street E.T. and we wish
everyone good luck in the upcoming 2013 season.

The 2"
Ground Clearance Rule will be enforced now at all MIROCK events starting in
2013 in all sportsman and grudge classes. All sportsman bikes and
grudge bikes must have 2" ground clearance including bodywork, exhaust, oil
pans, suspension, etc. Pro Street and Real Street still must have 3" ground
clearance and will be checked at Pro Tech as usual. Track Officials at MIR,
The ROCK, and Atco will have these tools at tech inspection and in the
staging lanes. This has always been a rule but will now be enforced for
rider safety and to minimize downtime and accidents due to oil downs from
busted oil pans and parts and debris from coming off the bottom of the
motorcycle. If your bike is too low you will be sent back to the pits with
no warning. Random checks may be done in tech, staging lanes, starting line,
or at the scales to make sure riders are not changing the bike's height
after it has already been checked. If your bike is too low, raise it up and
have a safe race. This will help greatly to reduce the number of motorcycle
oil downs and accidents, so the race gets completed earlier and everyone
gets their track time including "Afterdark Underground". So make sure you
are prepared and good luck at the races!
