LeagueofSpeed Sunday, 6/28/2020

Jump to last page

This race has been rescheduled and picked up by a new host

Please see the new thread for details.


Muscle Mania is a Race that consists of 3 Categories...

American Muscle
American Street
Low Riders

Some Racing Veterans may remember our November race as American Muscle...which that category is still viable and will still be recognized as American Muscle 4 this year...but there will no longer be a separate Stock and Modified Divisions...Stocks will be Racing Mods in all 3 Categories of the new setup. Hot Wheels produced the Mainline line of Muscle Mania...in which you have 3 types of Castings with definite differences...hence the 3 Categories of Muscle Mania 2020.

So pay attention to the year Models listed for the different Categories...

Examples...
67 Plymouth GTX is American Street and 71 Plymouth GTX is American Muscle

65 Pontiac GTO is American Street and 67 Pontiac GTO is American Muscle

...Low Riders will be self explanatory

American Street is a category that I created with the help of MDG Racing...the specs on a American Street casting will become evident as you yourself start prepping for the Race...

Rules & restrictions

  • Stock and modified entries allowed
  • 65g max maximum weight
  • 1/64 scale...Check the 3 Categories for Eligible Castings
  • Team must be 2 Cars, if Racing in all 3 Categories that would be 6 cars
  • Retail axles and wheels only. FTE/NPA axles allowed...axel tubing allowed.
  • Dry lube only
  • Team is 2 cars
  • No exterior weight..Car must keep orginal silhouette and Body
  • Absolutely NO WHEEL WELL Hogging...castings must keep Original Track Stance and the Tucked Wheels 
  • Builds must look like a American Production car...Like something you'd see on the Street aka Original Body

Dates & deadlines

All entries must be received by the host on or before Wednesday, 11/11/2020. Racing is scheduled for Saturday, 11/14/2020. Results will be posted on or after that date as is convenient for the host.

How to enter

Include at least $5.00 for return shipping if you want your entries back. Entries not getting returned will be given to the winner as part of the prize.

Include a Race Entry ID slip with your entry

 

Race format and scoring

This will be a single-elimination tournament. A car will move on in the bracket only when it wins two races in a row. Cars will alternate lanes between each race.

The car that wins the final race will be declared the winner. Race host has final decision in all races.

Bracket seeding will be random.

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

Trophy and Bragging Rights

There will be 3 Capped Fields of 32 Teams/64 Cars...Team must be 2 Car.

So essentially Muscle has larger wheel openings with the wheels past them, Street will have the rear or in some cases both front and rear wheels tucked into the fenders?  I imagine, in the spirit of sticking with the designs the Street (and lowrides) need to stay with the wheels inside the fenders similar to the Pro Street class in Poppa Speed?

Count me in for all 3.  At the moment Ill just send 2 cars, one from me and the other from L&M.  If that changes Ill let you know to add L&M but for now Im thinking 6 cars total.

I couldn't figure out how to add a photo to a reply. 


  • That's a go for American Muscle Class — LeagueofSpeed
  • That car is listed for average 20 bucks on Ebay. Maybe should find a different one — Mayfield41
  • Race it!!! — Foursix
  • I am... I stripped the paint and it's like chrome. I'm not going to repaint. — Mayfield41

***Also, it's in the Rules above...but Absolutely No Wheel Well Hogging allowed...All Castings must keep the Original Track Stance...That's why we have 3 Classes...It's for a Reason***


  • I like it which is why I brought it up as well. No cyance if someone "not realizing" it and being DQed lol — Mattman213
