THE INSPECTION
Build it to the rules!

The DENT inspection process is unparalleled and is classified as the fairest and toughest in the sport. The entire DENT Inspection Team is hand picked and based on their knowledge and expertise in the sport. Each and every car inspection will be very strict, extremely thorough and based on the 2003 DENT Super Modified Class rules. All safety requirements, chassis, and full exterior and interior body regulations will be checked. Drivers needing to make minor changes will be given the opportunity to return to their truck and trailer to make those specified changes. All re-inspections will be done ONLY after the last car from the last Heat has passed through inspection. If time runs out before the show starts and re-inspection of completed work is not done, those drivers will not be permitted to compete, and no refunds will be allowed. Any driver found to be in complete violation (cheating) of the car building rules will not be permitted to run and will be escorted off the property by State Police, pit passes for the driver and crew will be revoked and no refunds will be given.

30-MINUTE WORK PERIOD
After the completion of each Heat, drivers who have qualified for the Feature will have their cars taken to an impound area to prepare car for the Feature. Drivers will have to bring their truck and equipment to the designated impound area. Each driver will be given only 30-minutes to work on their cars regardless of what Heat they were in. This 30-minute work period will take place after each Heat and will be supervised by a DENT Official. Drivers will be allowed a maximum of 5 crewmembers and themselves (total 6) to complete as much work to their car in this 30-minute time period.

THE ENFORCER
The DENT ENFORCER will be used to get cars unstuck from each other while the show remains running. It will also enter the derby pit with lights flashing to stop the event if a red-flag is called and the derby is to be stopped for a car fire or an injured driver. Any driver who has been black-flagged and refuses to acknowledge the DENT on-track Official and shut their car down will be pushed out of the competition area by the ENFORCER.
