[3] The basic format of time-attack racing is that production based sports cars compete for the fastest single lap around a paved road course.
Since drivers compete against the clock, instead of wheel-to-wheel as in traditional road course racing, the potential risk to participants is minimized.
The higher classes include semi and fully professional racing teams who often have some level of sponsorship.
Participation is limited to teams with a sufficiently fast qualifying lap and possessing a car with the required safety equipment.
Cars are allowed the use of R-Compound track tires as well as much flexibility in the areas of suspension, aerodynamics, and body work.
Super Modified cars make use of carbon/composite body panels, large wings, wide racing slick tires and massive amounts of power.
Redline Time Attack also offers driver instruction from professional driving instructors to anyone that requests it.
One race with mixed classes is conducted in a traditional wheel-to-wheel format, with the grid arranged with the fastest cars up front and slowest in back.
The field takes the green under a rolling start, and the winner is the first to cross the finish line after five laps.
