El Piloto Series
Description: The club will purchase one slot car for each available lane. Each car will be tuned-up by the same mechanic for the duration of the series, this person will not be allowed to race. Since there are 3 lanes on our club track, we would have 3 cars; each car would be assigned to a specific lane. Drivers would use their own controllers in each heat but cars would not change lanes (everybody would race the same model in each lane). The series constitute of 10 Thursday night races to be scheduled, the best 8 results will count towards a drivers total.
Race Fees: $40 for club member and $80 for a non-member, fees are for the entire series and should be paid in advance. A minimum of 6 racers is required.
Car Selection & Tune-up: The car selection and non-magnetic tune-up will be chosen by the series mechanic (any better work for this position?).
Prizes: Box plaques for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place series finishers. Slot cars used in the series may be auctioned or given as prizes at the end of the series.
Budget: The budget for cars, tune-up & box plaques is limited to the amount collected during signup($240 minimum), any money left over after expenses goes to the club.
