broken glass remains in car to fall out later. No screening may be
substituted for windshield, no lexan or plexi glass. All glass must be
removed before coming to the race track. Duct tape is to be placed
around window edge where glass was broken out. We will not allow any
glass to be removed at the race track. Any cars coming to the race track
with glass remaining will be disqualified.
2. Doors (front and rear) must be securely fastened shut. They may be
bolted, chained (with bolts) no knots, or welded closed. Cars with

(1)number in each race meet. There will be no changing of numbers on
cars after registration or after racing begins. Points will be awarded
to the car # and the registered driver of that car for each race. If a
drivers car becomes disabled they will not be permitted to purchase or
borrow another car and put their number on that car. Any attempt to do
so will result in the immediate disqualification of the drivers and cars
involved and points & prizes for the event will be revoked.
Any infraction of these rules will result in penalties and Track

penalties. We withhold the right to withhold monies earned, disqualify
drivers from future Demolitions or ban people from Miramichi City
Speedway indefinitely.
