The race will start in June, so you have quite a bit of time to get them ready
Just so I have a running count on the colors, I'll start a list here. So far it's...
Eastbound - Emerald Green
2Seven - I assume carbon fiber or flames (?)
Smitty - Black and White checkered
CCRider - Blue
Chevy C10 - Black and Orange
JDC442 - Pink
CrzyTrkrDude/TrkrWife - Pink and Black
NightStalker - Metallic Purple
Wizard of Oz - Charcoal Gray
Traction Event - Light Green (I'm assuming he'd want Lt Green, anyway)
Voxxer Racing - Black, White and Red Stripes
MoHasFastCars - Copper
Delta 6 - Aqua w/White stripes
Redneck Racing - Green camo
Rules & Restrictions
- Weight minimum/maximum - one 40 gram car, one 57 gram car
- Size restrictions; length and height - The usual, 1.3 high, 3.5 long orange track wide
- Cars per entrant/household - 2 cars per team (one 40g, one 57g), 2 teams per person, max
- Brand, body style, year, make/model requirements - Muscle Cars...anything on this listhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_car#Models
- Wheel limitations, requirements FTE allowed
- Must be drilled rivets
- Dry lubes only
- Misc requirements - If you look back at last year's Bare Muscle race, you will see that the cars are all stripped with a different color roof on each. Pretty cool stuff. Please paint your own roofs a unique "team" color. So, please post in this thread what color you will be using.
- *New this year* Please keep the wheels in the wheel wells (they can stick out width-wise, juse no altering the wheelbase)...this isn't an altered drag car race...no Way2Fast frames with a muscle car body on it...you can still run whatever chassis you'd like, as long as the wheels are in the wheel well
Prizes
This is a PINKS race...the winner of the 40 gram class gets all the 40 gram cars and the winner of the 57 gram class gets all the 57 gram cars
How to enter

Scoring and Winning
The usual scoring...1 point per win, with an extra point for making the finals
Penalties
I will be enforcing the 'Traction Event Rule' in regards to weight...I will give you 3 grams over, maximum (to allow for scale variance). Any heavier than that, and your car will be PAINTED PINK and run, but not scored. But, please, try to keep the weights at the 57g and 40g limits...Thanks!
Tracks & Dates
I will be using the Traction event penalty rule...if your car is over 3 grams too heavy, it will be painted pink, raced and not scored :)

Discussion
Count me in on two teams!!!! Both teams will have (Emerald) Green roofs.
Thanks! Yeah, this one is a big deal to me as well! I missed the first one two years ago, and the race last year was a really good event!
I'll be sending invitations to everyone that races on here to come join this one. Muscle Cars hold a special place in my heart, and what could be more fun than building your favorite Muscle car and pitting it against the best!
A 64 car field? How awesome would that be? 16 guys, entering 4 cars each...that's all it would take! And you've got until June to put them together!!
Let's make this one epic :)
I'm in! Blue roofs for me.
nose in the air '64 Galaxie... yup...
black and white checkerboard rooves for the sloppies... if un-taken...
- i will host if we don't get enough hosts by series comencement... — fordman
- Cool, thanks for offering to host, Smitty! — 72_Chevy_C10
Started work on my four today my son has a team and me and my wife are a team hopefully they'll be fast
I'll can host on the 18th.
Okay, I listed 2Seven for the 11th and CCRider for the 18th....thanks for hosting, Guys! This will be one you'll really enjoy hosting!
Oh, I guess I should call Black and Orange for my roof color
I'll host June 25th.
If anyone else wants to host, let me know...it does not have to be limited to 5 events.
Would you consider a true WTA? I think idea of winner receiving the entire field he/she beat to be the cherry on top! Just my thought, I'm cool with whatever but getting a common car in exchange demishes the risk/reward.
2seven
- there is no greater prize than another racers car... built with blood, sweat, tears, ... that is the risk, and why the reward is so great! — Traction-Event
- I actually prefer WTA! I thought I'd just ad that as an option...I know Rally Case likes to get his cars back — 72_Chevy_C10
- yea, i give mine away anyway , but i don't care either way... — fordman
I'm in and I can host as well, can't wait! This is always a great series and with all the new guys too this should be one of the series that makes the year at RLD! Highly encourage everyone to enter, let's make it a goal for 60+ cars. Seriously, guys think about it, enter 2 cars you may have $10 in material and walk away with ALL the cars (which should be held as the greatest trophy & something to cherish).....I challenge any/all RLD racers to enter, let's make this a blow out tourney.
