STANDARD BRACKET/SINGLE ELIMINATIONS:
-During Elimination Rounds the winner of each round is determined by a Voting System determined by 3 judges with the criteria of qualification scoring in mind.
-A 1-win/1-win battle will lead into a OMT (One More Time) until a winner is determined.
-The loser of each battle is eliminated from the competition.
-There is no 4th place battle.
QUALIFYING/JUDGING:
-Each participant has two rounds to execute their best qualifying round. That score places the participant in their bracket position as the Highest Vs. Lowest Score.
-If there is an odd number of participants, top score gets the BYE first round.
-There will be 2-3 judges spread across different sections of the course. Each judge is in charge of their particular section.
SCORING FOR QUALIFYING:
-Scoring is used for Qualification and Bracket Placement.
-EACH SECTION is out of 50 points with an overall max total of 150 points and is based on the following criteria:
-Speed (10 pts)
-Angle (10 pts)
-Clipping Points Hit (15 pts)
-Proximity (15 pts) [Proximity to Walls]
-SPINOUTS ARE AN AUTOMATIC LOSS OF TOTAL POINTS FOR THAT SECTION.
ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES/RULES:
-Courtesy Start: We understand that not all cars have the same initial start speed. At the beginning of each round after the start light has lit and the lead car is ahead, the lead car must slow down (if necessary) for the chase car to catch up until the first section of judging. There will be a marker on the track that shows the maximum amount of space allotted for the chase car to catch up. After this marker, there is no mercy for the chase car.
-If the LEAD CAR spins out the opposing car must wait for the spun out car to recover. The course is then resumed.
-If the lead car stalls and causes a collision, the lead car is at fault.
-If the lead car break checks and causes a collision, the lead car is at fault.
-If the lead car is tapped by the chase car at any time due to proximity of chase, and is spun out or thrown off their course/ideal track line, the chase care is at fault.
-If the lead car is tapped by the chase car at any time due to proximity of chase, but is not thrown off
their course/ideal track line then the chase car is not at fault.
-Judging for the CHASE CAR is strictly based off of proximity to the lead car. NOT THE LINE FOLLOWED.
-Participants Qualifying Chassis MUST BE THE SAME as the Chassis used for competing.
-The competition will be capped out at a MAXIMUM of 40 Participants.
