Race format and scoring

The top 10 in each of the events will earn points.

Speed events will have rounds where the field will be reduced each round until there is a single winner. 10 points for 1st down to 1 point for 10th. 11th and below receive zero points for the event.

Distance events will have rounds where the field will be reduced each round until there is a single winner. 10 points for 1st down to 1 point for 10th. 11th and below receive zero points for the event.

Accuracy events will have rounds where a car will score points for stopping in zones closest to the target. High scores move on to the next round until there is a single winner. 10 points for 1st down to 1 point for 10th. 11th and below receive zero points for the event.

A perfect score would be 100 by winning all 10 events.

Penalties/DNF

Cars are given a grace of 1g over the stated weight limit to account for variance in scales.

If a car fails to meet any of the restrictions listed above, the car will not qualify for victory. Offending cars will still race. Finish position and any prize will go to the runner-up in the case of the penalty car winning.

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

In the spirit of the Olympics, this will be a fund raising event to help out Mako Racing. Mako had a house fire a few months ago and if you would like to donate to the Go fund me that they have set up you can do that as an 'Entry fee'. I do not need proof of donation this is a free to enter event. Only donate if you feel like it and if you already have donated, Awesome!
