Rules for a rule-less racing series to be known as the Super Hot Mod
Unlimited Championship (SHMUC)
Chassis: Tyco 440 chassis. Any Tyco (440, 440×2, 440×3), (USA,
Malaysian, European), (wide or narrow) chassis can be utilized. Chassis
must not be modified, shaved, or cut in any way. Chassis must be stock
and not physically altered (chassis can be mentally altered).
Exception: Special chassis night at the Dekertring – we will be running
the Super G+ chassis using the same rules as the ISF GTP class – stock
chassis with no electrical system, Armature or Magnet modifications
allowed.
Body: Any non-open wheel slotcar body that you can get to fit on the
chassis without altering the body or chassis and will remain on the
chassis during normal racing conditions is allowed. All windows that are
stock to the body must remain. Older bodies can be missing items like
side pipes, exhaust but any larger holes in the body caused by the
missing pieces should be filled or taped up (this will be on a case by
case basis with majority vote by event drivers ruling). Body can be
attached to the body with glue, silicone, or any other substance that
will remain with the body/chassis and will not fall or drip off on to
the track. Resin bodies are legal as long as they are not open-wheel
type bodies. Lexan bodies and Paper bodies are not legal.
Special Body Races: There will be special events that will limit the
bodies that can be run.
Asia Cup: Only bodies from the Asian area of the world. Ex: Mazda,
Nissan, Datsun, Honda, Kia, Toyota...
Europe Cup: Only bodies from the European area of the world. Ex:
Ferrari, BMW, Lamorghini, Jaguar...
USA Cup: Only bodies from the USA. Ex: Dodge, Chevy, Ford, Oldsmobile,
Tucker...
World Cup: Only bodies from the manufacturers that won the Asia, Europe
and USA Cup.
NASCAR 90s +/NASCAR Pre 90s: NASCAR bodies are stockcars with numbers.
Trucks: Bodies that are trucks. They can be off-road, drag, NASCAR or
just plain trucks. No vans or Jeeps.
Pre 80's: Bodies that are prior to the 1980's.
Electrical system: Any way that you want to modify/replace the way the
power gets to the motor is up to you, as long as there are no
modifications to the chassis or body as noted above – they cannot be
altered.
Armature: Any arm that fits into the chassis without modification to the
chassis is allowed.
Magnets: Any magnets that fit into the chassis without modifications to
the chassis are allowed. Magnets can be glued or attached to the chassis
in any way as long as they stay attached under normal racing conditions
and do not alter the chassis.
Tires/Wheels: Run any tires/wheels that you would like.
RaceDay Schedule:
Practice is open until 6:50pm.
Announcements at 6:50pm.
Qualifying Rounds start at 7pm.
Qualifying races (3 minutes) set up with a random draw of drivers will
determine the letter main race lineups. Qualifying races will be filled
with 4 drivers per each race until the driver list is depleted.
The top qualifier will be seeded in the A main, the next fastest
qualifier will be seeded in the B main, then the next two will be seeded
in the C main and so on until there are three or four drivers left for
the final main. The mains will be run with the lowest letter main first
and the top two finishers in that main will bump up to the next main
until the C main when the top three will bump into the B main and the
top three in the B main will bump into the A main .
(Example: 12 drivers – A Main: 1st qualifier, B Main: 2nd qualifier, C
Main: 3 & 4, D Main: 5 & 6, E Main: 7 & 8, F Main: 9, 10, 11 & 12.)
A main will run 4 minute halves. B & C Mains will run 2:30 minute
halves, and lower mains will run 2 minute halves.
All races will utilize ISF style lane switch at halfway break. Race
clock is only stopped for multicar accidents.
