The Slow Mo Showdown

FALL FEST ’26 RECAP: SLOW MO SHOWDOWN OFFICIAL RESULTS & ROOKIE SPOTLIGHT!

What an unbelievable day of gravity racing at Fall Fest ’26! The P1 Sim Racing Slow Mo Showdown brought a massive field of 359 total carded entries to the track.

With the main bracket locked at 256, entries beyond that mark became "Race-In" (RI) wildcards, battling head-to-head in preliminary showdowns to earn their spot in the final field of 256. The strategy was simple, but brutal: build the slowest legal car down the 4-lane track without stalling or suffering a DNF. Several builders pushed the absolute ragged edge near the 3.8-second mark, making every single heat a nail-biter!

A massive thank you to our headline series sponsor, OnSite Computers (Charm City Cup Diecast Racing Series), and our feature race sponsor, P1 Sim Racing, for making this event possible!
