Thanksgiving Thunder at Flips Strip

This will be our last mail-in race of the year. We will have two classes. A Pro and a No Pro class. You will determine if you're a pro or not. The pros will race for a trophy and the No Pros will race for a prize pack and bragging rights. How to determine if you are a pro. Ask yourself this question, can I complete against the fastest in the world and be competitive? If the answer is yes then you are a pro. If the answer is no, then you should probably race in the no pro class. Make sure you put in the enty slip if your are racing in the Pro class or No Pro. Read ALL the rules down below. Thanks for checking out this event and hope to see you at the track.

Track

Race format and scoring

This will be a timed event. Each car will be randomly paired up and will get one run down each lane. The fastest time will be recorded. Any ties will fall back to the second lap time. After each round the field will be cut in half with the fastest times moving until we have a winner. Both classes pro and No pro will race this way.

Penalties/DNF

If a car fails to meet any of the restrictions listed above, the car will not qualify for victory. Offending cars will still race in the first round but will not continue.

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
