    More info:

    Stock class: Open to any bought Hot Wheels, Matchbox, etc car that will stage and fit on the track.

    Modified class: Any stock car that has been modified with wheels, weight, paint, etc...to make it go faster. No model rocket engines fellas!

    HAMB class: Open to any stock car modeled on a 1964 or older vehicle, open to hot rods, customs, etc..No performance mods allowed.

    Dry Graphite lube is allowed in any class.

    NO WET LUBES! Don't make me bring out the hammer!

    You can run up to 3 cars in each class.

    I'm also supposed to have some sponsor goodies by the races...that's right the VP of Hot Wheels design in on the HAMB and took notice of my little shindig! How awesome is that!

    Bring it on!

    Thanks.

    Can't wait! Word to the Wise: If you had a fast car last time, don't sit back and think you're safe... I think I speak for everyone when I say that research has been done and the bar has been raised :)

    That's awesome. I especially like the "smashed" rule. I want to put one on here in SLC.

    The Deora is retired after it's dismal showing, time for some Poncho Power!

    HAMB un-friendly 1964 Pontiac GTO 389 tri-power 4-speed in Singapore Gold metallic with factory vinyl top. Prepare for an ass-woopin'!!!

    O.K. - Thats it! yesterday we tested two kinds of "dry" lube! I would think that some of yall in the structural core drilling industry would have thought of this...but after 30 minutes of research it was obvious, we have your match!!! When we added weights to our modified car, it just got faster and faster. Bring on all takers !
