Quick 8 Street Car Tournament This show/event is very simple.
I want to know who has the fastest street car. A street car will be defined by a vehicle in compliance with the rules listed below and able to complete a no B.S. cruise led by me in a pace car. The cruise will be held at significant (not outrageous) speed on a closed circuit oval track.
The length of the cruise will be determined by me on the fly from behind the wheel of the pace car. Each car will get two qualifying runs before the cruise to determine their position in line for the cruise. If a car breaks down on the cruise they are out of the tournament and the car behind them takes their position on the qualifying ladder.
When the cruise is complete the field for the tournament is set. The fastest 8 cars that qualify and complete the cruise compete in a heads up shootout, Hot Lap style, winner take all race.
There will be 5 races total. Each race will be its own episode. The top two cars from the first 4 races earn a spot in the 5th and final Championship race.
Quick 8 Street Car Rules
1 Cars must weigh a minimum of 3000lbs with driver
2 Cars must retain the stock frame rails (notching for clearence is allowed)
3 Cars must retain the factory Dash and stock apearing interior
4 Cars must retain the factory Glass in all windows
5 Cars must compete on a DOT approved drag radial tire. MT, Goodyear, BFG, and NITTO are all acceptable tires
6 Cars must pass NHRA tech inspection
7 Major engine and or power adder components must not be replaced at any time during the races, qualifying, or cruise.
8 Any front and rear suspension combination is allowed as long the stock frame rails remain in their factory location
9 Interpretation of these rules is ultimately judged by Nate Pritchett and the Quick 8 technical staff. If we do not feel that the car competes within the spirit of a street car you will be eliminated from competition.
10 Cars must be street legal : working headlights , tailights ,blinkers ,etc.
11 All rules subject to change at the discretion of Nate Pritchett
