2008-2009 Rules & Regulations

The intent of Scale Dirt Racing (SDR) bring

● Realism to slot car racing making the looks of the cars first priority

● A real racing format, as much as possible

● Keep performance cost to a minimum.

Plus running the alternating class weekly gives the racer that can’t run every week a chance to run for points. Pick your favorite class and run that week. That eliminates the weekly pressure. If you can make all classes every week, that’s great. You’re a die-hard. To run SDR you must be willing to go the extra mile on looks of the cars and must have the discipline to run the format with “sportsman like conduct”. If this describes you, welcome to the SDR.

CLUB RULES & POLICY:

1. No smoking in building

2. No arguing or poor sportsman like conduct

3. Clean up any mess you make in your pit before you leave (throw garbage in cans).

4. No ruff riding. This is wrecking someone on purpose. We will also be watching for driving over your capability and wrecking racers or running your car that is working bad. You will be warned 2 times, 3^rd time you will have to pull your car. It’s not fair to wreck others because of poor sportsman like conduct.

5. No stealing or damaging others equipment.

6. No fighting

7. No cheating

8. No foul language.

All rules and policies will be enforced. Some verbal warnings, but continued abuse will result in suspension. Some infractions will result in loss of points. Some infraction will result in immediate dismissal and loss of membership.

All enforcement will be voted on by committee the day of infraction or will notify driver before next race.

Possible Club Ventures:

1. Articals in slotcar magazines / area auto racing news

2. Show cars at race car shows

3. Set up races at other tracks on Friday night or Sunday for exhibition non points.

4. Get businesses for race sponsors for cash races or add to the end of year point fund. At the end it could turn into a really good point fund. We could get trophies, banquet, and possible cash payout at the end of the season for points.

5. 6% discount on parts and 5% discount on LRE cars.

GENERAL RULES:

1. Any new or replacement parts for use in the current year must be approved by the SDR. The part will not be allowed in use until the part is available for 2 weeks to the general public over the sales counter. At that time the new or replacement part will be added to the current rules. At the end of the season the new part will replace the old in the rules. Till then you can race old and new parts after meeting the 2 week availability. Old part still could be legal if it is still available.

2. If you have an idea about the cars or format or if you are not clear on a rule, bring it up with one of the SDR directors and they will be able to give you an explanation or yes or no answer. If the director deems it necessary, it will be brought up with the other directors to be discussed with the person bringing up the question or idea. Do not make a scene during racing. See a director before or after the race. It is your responsibility to find out all the rules and procedures before you start racing with the SDR because it might not be for you and we do not want the negative attitude. Plus we don’t want you wasting your money on cars if you can’t adapt to the SDR system. We will be strict on penalizing poor sportsman like conduct.

3. No oil or braid juice during mains(heats, consi, and feature).

4. At the track the driver only may work on the car. No pit crews. It is not fair to the other racers that do not have a crew. In the pits It does not matter, but on the track you check the car yourself. A quick tweak after a wreck by a turn marshall and that’s it. Drivers will not leave the panel unless asked to do so. If the starter feels your car is a hazard to the other cars, he can black flag your car for the segment or until the cause of the hazard is repaired. If you can’t get your car fixed, have consideration for the others in the race and pull the car without going until a black flag condition is put on you. It is better to make your own decision to pull, than be publicly black flagged.

5. At the end of each segment, drivers will have approximately 30 – 45 sconds to change lands and make a quick adjustment to car if necessary. If you are not ready at the panel when timer gets down to 3 seconds, your car will be pulled for that segment.

6. There will be a 10 minute prep period for consolation and feature. This will be policed by the use of a timer. If you do not have your car to tech in that time you will sit out the first segment.

7. Every Member will participate in turn marshaling. (Unless exempt for health reasons or other reasons ok’d by committee. If you are not racing you are to be marshaling unless exempt. There will be no working on equipment while racing is going on. You will be warned on the 1^st offense, 2^nd offense you will sit out a segment in your race.

8. There will not be mandatory tear downs unless the directors feel something is not right. They have the right to tear you down at any time. Any minor rule violation causes loss of points for that night. Any major rule violation causes loss of points for the night plus 1 week off in the class you had the infraction. Refusal to allow your car to be inspected will be treated as a major rule violation.

9. You may loan or change cars but the car must go through tech and the driver must do the work on the car while the car is on the track. If the driver qualified his own car in the heat he forfeits his finish and has to run the consi. If a driver comes in late and gets a ride, he can race as long as the consi did not start and the car has gone through tech. The driver must be the one to work on the car at the track, not the owner of the car. If a driver comes in late with his own entry the same applies for the driver getting a ride.

10. Decisions on rule interpretations or additions are made by the directors and considered final. If you still don’t agree, you will get a DNF and 1 week suspension. If the same person brings up the issue again or trouble just because of the last DNF at another race, and you get a DNF again from it, you will be suspended for 1 month. Continuing this again for a 3^rd time will remove you from SDR racing in that class for the rest of the season.

11. Tech will be done by each committee member on a rotating schedule. If committee member will be absent the week he is scheduled to Tech, it is his responsibility to switch with another committee member.

12. If for any reason (track maintenance, track owner gets phone call, etc...) that a red flag is called, there will be no working on cars.

13. Do not go up to computer between segments.

Race Format

Racing starts at 2:00 pm (all drivers should be signed in and have there cars teched)

Motors must be purchased and etched at the track. Only motors that have been etched at the track are legal.

This number sets you up for the heat.

(example: heat#1-1,4,7,10 heat#2- 2,5,8,11 heat #3-3,6,9,12)

The number of heats will depend on the number of drivers signed in.

4 drivers - just run a feature.

5-12 drivers - run 2 heats (3 drivers will qualify from each heat)

13-24 drivers - run 3 heats (2 drivers will qualify from each heat)

25 and more - only heat winner will qualify from each heat.

The heats will be 8 laps.

The unqualified drivers will run a consi for the remaining spots in the feature, this will be an 8 lap round robin. Lineup will be as follows: first non qualifier in heat#1(black), first non qualifier in heat#2 (purple), 2^nd non qualifier in heat#1(yellow), 2^nd non qualifier in heat#2(blue) and so on.

If there are sit outs, the sit out driver will come on red. Driver on white will sit out till its his turn to come back on.

Features will be 12 laps.

Start of mains will be a staggered start.

Crash spots: anywhere in the turn will start at the beginning of turn, coming off the turn will start at the beginning of the straight or just in front of lap counter if you got your lap.

Racers are allowed to pay for weeks that they will be absent in advance. They will be awarded sign in bonus and 9^th place points.

SDR POINT SYSTEM:

heat winners 2 pts

feature: 1^st - 10, 2^nd - 8, 3^rd - 7, 4^th - 6, 5^th - 5, 6^th - 4, 7^th - 3, 8^th - 2

9^th place on back will receive 1 point.

Overall Champion will be determined at the end of the year by the total points earned in all classes. The more classes you run the greater your chance to win this title.
