The Hot Wheels Racing League Championship Series is a series that will test the racers ability to assemble a team of cars that will be successful on a variety of courses under a variety of conditions. Some races only allow stock cars so it will test a racers ability to collect and pick the right car for the situation. Some races will allow custom cars, but all races will allow stock cars so a racers modifying abilities will be put to the test to create cars that can go faster than the stock cars.
Points will be awarded for each race and accumulated throughout the season.
Points will be awarded as follows:
- 10 points for 1st place
- 9 points for 2nd place
- 8 points for 3rd place
- 7 points for 4th place
- 6 points for 5th place
- 5 points for 6th place
- 4 points for 7th place
- 3 points for 8 place
- 2 points for 9 place
- 1 point for 10th place on down
If there is ever a tie, the total points will be split between the cars. For example, if two cars tied for 5 and 6th place they would each get 5.5 points (6 points for 5th place + 5 points for 6th place = 11 points divided by 2 = 5.5 points)
Each team can have up to 6 cars. They do not all have to be entered at once. Cars can be added to the team throughout the season until the max of 6 is reached. Teams do not need to have 6 cars, however it is advisable that a team have at least 4 cars so they will be able to compete in the team race.
Cars can be any brand 1/64 scale cars.
- Any wheels are allowed.
- Max length 4 inches.
- Max height 2.5 inches.
- Max weight 85 grams.
- Width - should fit on Hot Wheels orange track.
Unless otherwise noted, a team may enter 2 cars in each race. Only the top finishing car will score points for the team. However, it may still be to a team’s advantage to race 2 cars because while the teams 2nd place car won’t score points for the team, it could cause another team to not score as many points. ie if a team has a 1st place car and a 2nd place car, they will only score 10 points for their team, but nobody will get 9 points, the 3rd place finisher will get 8 points.
One race will be a team event where 4 cars will be raced. The place of each car will be added together and the team with the lowest total will win the event. If a team does not have 4 cars they will not be able to race in this event.
