Welcome to West Plains Speedway Pit area. Drivers eagerly anticipating the opening of the gates to the Pit area. Various makes and models are distributed throughout the pit area before the races actually begin. Each driver and crew supply their own tools, tires and various car parts needed to insure a safe race not just for themselves but for the other drivers they are competing against. All personnel in the pit area are equipped with an identifying tag to insure they belong there.
Cars are unloaded, watched over and worked on prior to each heat, and race.
Once the vehicles are unloaded they are inspected. Tires are checked. There is always an IMCA Official making sure everyone complies with the rules. Next the drivers meet to get instructions. All other pertinent information needed before the racing begins.
