2020 Diecast Games!!!!
OK, I've been at this now and think I have things hammered out. There will be a few changes.
What do you guys think?
2020 Diecast Games
4 “stock” entries per team (1 American, 1 Euro, 1 Asian, 1 Fantasy)
(Under 65 grams) (Dry Lube Allowed)
10 Events: 1) ¼ Mile, 2) ½ Mile, 3) Roll, 4) Push, 5) Obstacle, 6) Climb,
7) Slalom, 8) Jump, 9) Fat Track Free For All, 10) Team Relay
Each team will have 2 cars per event, except for the 2 mandatory events (9 & 10) all 4 will compete in them.
Each car will be in 6 events, 2 mandatory & 4 selected.
Send the 4 cars and $5, for return postage. Cars here by June 1st.
Points distribution for 1st – 20th places for each event.
Points for 1st – 20, 2nd – 19, 3rd – 18 and so on to 20th – 1.
Awards for Top 3 Americans, Top 3 Euros, Top 3 Asians, Top 3 Fantasies, Top 3 Overall Cars, and Top 3 Overall Teams.
Limit 1 team per individual, 3 per household unless cleared with me before sending cars.
Right now I am setting NO limit to cars.
So there's where I am at right now. The tracks will be improved this year, as well as the video.
Let me know if you can think of anything to help it!

Check out last year's inaugural diecast games on the Big Poppy Racing YouTube channel to get an idea of what each event looks like.
- Will do! — Mattman213
- Just watched all 10 events and that was cool. I have my american car picked out. Still looking around for the others. Love the concept of all the possible winners. — Mayfield41
Possibly obvious answer to this: Are we allowed to take the car apart to lube and put it back together with screws or no?
- No...I can answer that one — LeagueofSpeed
- No sir, I'm sorry car must be as from the shelf. — Big_Poppy
My team is ready!
- Rust Belt bringing Tom tom the Pain Train.... Haha good luck guys! — Houdini0333
- Haha he's comin for ya! — RustBeltRacing
I know it's unwise to show your hand but I'm pretty happy with what my team looks like because they are all original owner cars from 20+ years ago :)
It's a good thing time travel isn't available because my 13 y.o. self would hate me for doing this haha
Wow, sounds great...sounds like a lot! I think if you get all the details hammered out on what push, roll, climb, etc. all means you'd have a lot of interest. And having top positions for each class is a great idea too, lets everyone have a better chance at winning something.
I had been kicking around the idea of some sort of a Hot Wheels tractor pull (or push) type of thing but haven't quite figured out how I'd do it. I'm excited to see how you're planning out the events...this could be something we offer every year or even as one-off events in the future.
