Modified- Same rule clarification as Stock class.
XMod- Same as bearing class. This will encompass all needle cars.

All venues will run same software and 42' Best Track with solenoid starting systems. Class rules will pertain to all events. Different special classes might be added at the separate events. All information will be kept together and up to date at www.npwdrl.com. The updated site should be ready by Dec 15th.

There will be points standings that will be tracked on a per class basis and overall basis. The scoring system will be the same as the NPWDRL Reboot used. The National Championship race will be an open invitational event. It will be made up of a qualifying round and a Championship round. The top 2 finishers in the qualifying round will advance to race against the racers that prequalified during the racing season. You prequalify for the Championship round for each class by earning 50 points in that particular class throughout the racing season.

We will award prizes and trophies to be determined for winning the points race for the season in each class and overall. We will also award prizes and trophies to the winners of the National Championship event. Prizes will be announced as we get more information.

We are still looking for 1 or 2 more venues that would like to host an event.

We are also looking for sponsors. You can help us here! Lets grow the series by each of us trying to find more and more sponsors. This series is 100% for the racers.

There will be new levels and awards of recognition to shoot for. More will coming on this.

Race fees $10 per car. Pre Paid return shipping labels will be highly recommended!!!

DerbyDad4Hire will be sponsoring the series and will be giving a racer discount to all participants.

More to come!

I would like it better if the final MOTM championship was limited to the four major classes. But maybe that is because I bombed out in the Slammer class, putting me in last place.

Opa, as far as i know, the Championship Race will only be the 4 classes with NO door slammer race.
I will be running a door slammer race at the CFC, but it is NOT for points and will be just for S&G's, i may call it the S&G's race. There will only be the 1 trophy for 1st place.
 
If the slammer class does stay around I think there needs to be clarification on what kits, bodies that can be used. Model bodies and size, slot car bodies, rc bodies, ect.
