“OFFICIAL” RULES • Cars will be built using an actual rocker cover from a VW engine; steel and or aluminum are allowed. • No engines or propulsion of any kind save gravity. • No moving weights/counter weights. • Wheels can be attached to the car in any manner, but must not extend beyond the front or rear of the valve cover. • Nothing can extend beyond the front or rear of the valve cover. • Cars will have at least four wheels, each no more than six inches in diameter. • Wheel must have a non-metallic surface contacting the track. • 10 inch maximum overall car width. • 10 inch maximum overall height. • 8 pounds maximum weight by Official** scales. • Valve covers will be clean (no sludge). If the racer drips oil or grease, it is disqualified! • Each racer will have a name to be used to identify it during races. Rules of the track and race are as follows: · The judge's decision is final! · The track will consist of two lanes with each lane 18 inches wide, (length to be determined at a later date and only to be limited by my imagination =). · If a racer (person) interferes with another car, it (they) automatically lose that round. · If a racer is hampered by a track issue, it will get another run. · If there is a tech issue, the judge's decision is final. · “official” rules are subject to change. ** official scales have been tested using state of the art weights and measures designed and operated by qualified NASA space engineers.
