Copy -n- paste:



NHRA YOUTH RACING
As part of its wide variety of racing series, NHRA offers the Youth Racing program, in which teenagers who are 13 to 16 years old can race one another in street vehicles, be they vintage machines or models straight from the showroom floor. The cars must be full-bodied street-legal vehicles that meet program requirements. Participants must have a licensed supervising adult in the car on all runs, which are made on the eighth-mile track using an elapsed time dial-in format and limited to 10.00 seconds and slower.



The way I understand the wording, the youth cannot drive the car from the ticket booth to their pit area, or from their pit area to the entrance of the staging lanes.

Interesting.
