AMain Performance Hobbies Manufacturers Cup, Presented by Tekin
AMain Performance Hobbies and Silver Dollar RC Raceway would like to welcome you to the 2017 AMain Performance Hobbies Manufacturers Cup, Presented by Tekin . A race with the intent to bring all the manufacturers together and compete against each other for the 2017 Manufacturers Cup title . The race will award each class individual awards, but the addition of the Manufacturers Cup will add a great team fun element to the race.
The Manufacturer Cup will be awarded to the Manufacturer chassis top two pro finishes combined with the one top open finisher chassis on a combined chassis result. First will be awarded one point and 15th will be awarded 15 points in the pro and open divisions. Low points win with the tie breaker going to combined laps and times of the three drivers.
The open division will be doing 3 rounds of IFMAR qualifying (14-15 minutes nitro 8-10 minute electric) with single main events with bumps (14-15 minutes nitro 8-10 minute electric main events). How you finish in the final main event will be your result. All drivers should get an hour of track time in this format on top of what they get in practice Friday and Saturday morning.
The pro will be running 4 heads up mains reshuffled with stagger starts for points (14-15 minutes nitro 8-10 minute electric mains) . A 1st in an individual main will be one point a 12th will be twelve points. Low points win with one throw out ( Just like Reedy Style) except there will be one pit stop more than likely for all drivers unless they can go 14-15 minutes. Each racer will ideally receive a different row start as best allowed with the reshuffling every round with goal being one for sure front row start. All drivers should get an hour of track time in this format on top of what they get in practice Friday and Saturday morning.
Also, the event will be about all spectators and racers getting the opportunity to see what the pros are running and get a chance for some one on one with top pro drivers and their products they are running in a manufacturer booth setup.
This premier event will be the first of many for the 2017 AMain race season. This will also serve as an opportunity for drivers to get some time on the track for the 2017 ROAR 1:8th Electric Offroad Nationals July 20-23. As temperatures in June are close to what they are in July.
