I'm wanting to start sending in my two wheel cars but am unsure what category they would be eligible for. I also have some specific question regarding staging for a two-wheel car and what would be allowed.

Some of the rules don't make sense for the two-wheel car but I feel I could still abide by the spirit of more than a couple of these classes.

The wheel will ride between the hole and rail based on my calculations.

Problem I see here, is it is on a wood track with no drop-off for a stop section.

With the best tracks, that car is going to do a barrel roll when it hits the stop section drop-off.

Have you run this car on any kind of aluminum track? What did it do to your car? Did it do anything to any of the other cars?

Ask me about the Mojo Pinewood Academy! If you are interested in reducing the learning curve and learning how to properly build and prep your car, I can help you turn your cars into Hot Rods!
