The Nashville
Collectors Experience
Show & Go Race


The Show & Go Race is an event that will test your ability to mix form and function.

We will open the event to sixteen entries. Eight entries will be invitation only and eight will be open enrollment.
There will be two individually scored portions of the event. The total score of both events will be combined to produce the overall standings.

The show portion of the event will be based on a peoples choice vote. Attendees of the Convention will be allowed to choose their top five favorites.
The chosen cars will be awarded between one and five points depending on their rated position. All points will be totaled and cars will be ranked
from one to sixteen. The first place car will receive sixteen points while the sixteenth place car will receive one point.

The race event will be scored by elapsed times. Each entry will make two passes - one in the right lane and one in the left. The two times
will be combined for an overall total. The total will then be used to set the finishing order. Just as in the show portion, cars will be awarded
points from one to sixteen depending on finishing order.The first place car will receive sixteen points while the sixteenth place car will receive one point.

In the event a car does not make it to the end of the track, it will be scored by the distance it completed.
Each entry will be allowed one re-run in case of an accident or off track incident.
No modifications will be allowed to the cars between the show and the race or betwen race rounds.

The show portion will be considered a wild category and the race class is Unlimited. You are allowed to use any casting in any style as long as it fits on the standard orange track. The Unlimited race class allows the use of weights, dry graphite lubricants, custom chassis and wheel modifications.
The only restrictions are to the physcial size of the entry. The maximum width is 1.25 inches, maximum height is 2.75 inches
and entries cannot be longer then six inches.

In the event there is a tie after final scoring, the race results will be used to determine final standings.

Okay, so this is one part beauty pageant and one part race, right?

And the racing part is open to all mods, tricks and hacks, true? Sounds like a good time. If one of those spots is open, I'll be happy to take one. I'm not sure I can compete in the beauty department but I'd like to think I could make a decent racer.

How long is the track?

You got it Bro. I got you penciled in.

They have to be Pretty Fast, lol. It's an unlimited class, so anything goes as long as it's not a propulsion system. Track will be the big 8 lane. It's 50'.

Do I have to be there to enter?

Unfortunately yes, but we will be running another race in Dallas at the Kustom Kon.


There may be something in the works for a derby race in Nashville.....
