Race format and scoring
This will be a single-elimination tournament. A car will move on in the bracket only when it wins 2/3 races. Cars will alternate lanes between each race. If neither car finishes the farthest on track regardless of if on all four wheels wins.
The car that wins the final race will be declared the winner. Race host has final decision in all races.
Bracket seeding will be random.
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.

I'm in
Matching numbers or unique numbers on each car?
I'll take #49 and #17 if it's unique. #49 if it's matching.
Thanks!
- If you want numbers that’s fine but they are not necessary. I do know that 17 is already taken — Kingshark
- Ok I'll take 49 for both then. — RustBeltRacing
Okay, I'm in.

#86
- Awesome sounds good — Kingshark
- I am assuming the same number can be used on both cars, as they are a team. — SpyDude
- Question: Is the Rally Speciale considered a legal entry? — SpyDude
- Sadly I don’t believe so as I’d like to keep it as more of a realistic car. — Kingshark
- Yes you can use the same # — Kingshark
I'll give it a shot
