TRACK RULES & REGULATIONS
Our main priority at Acadiana Speedway is to maintain a Safe atmosphere. We follow WKA rules; however, IKF motors are allowed to run with WKA restrictor plates where applicable.
- Upon entering the racetrack, you will be given an armband to show that your entry fee (not driver’s fee) has been paid at the gate. Everyone entering the gates MUST wear the armbands. This policy will be strictly enforced. Failure to show proof of an armband will require you to pay an additional $10.00 at the gate.
- Drivers will be responsible for their conduct and the conduct of all those associated with their team while at Acadiana Speedway.
- We will not tolerate any yelling at flag men or any track official at anytime. All official calls stand. You cannot protest an official call.
