Race format and scoring

This will be a single-elimination tournament.

The car that wins the final race will be declared the winner. Race host has final decision in all races.

Bracket seeding based on time trials. Video of time trials will be shown on YouTube along with all races on my Chanel.

Penalties/DNF

Cars are given a grace of 1g over the stated weight limit to account for variance in scales.

If a car fails to meet any of the restrictions listed above, the car will not qualify for victory. Offending cars will still race. Finish position and any prize will go to the runner-up in the case of the penalty car winning.

Cars that fail to run or fit on the track, or that happen to break during racing, will forfeit their matches. Cars that arrive broken will attempt to be minimally repaired before the racing begins. Cars that break during racing will not be repaired or replaced.

Prizes

All cars that was entered
A Rick's diecast racing cup
A place in my Hall of Fame.
