Are Tuff ones wheels legal for s/s? Does any one know the width of the tuff ones wheel?? Can the p/u's have weight added to them instead of the body? Any buddy got pics of their s/s to share?? Last but not least, here is a duuugh question. If .250 equal one quarter of an inch what does .215 equal??

It's a tad less than 7/32" inch . I think the measurement came from an existing wheel set, possibly Tuff ones., plus a fudge factor Let me get back to you on this one.
Tthanks for the question on pics of existing SS cars. Its a good idea to post a few and we will later today.
The weighted pick up idea is an interesting one,. I seem to recall considering the value of such a modification at one time or another. I am interested as to how you would weight the pickup.......a layer of Solder on the inner surface perhaps??
Anyway, let me check on this one.
Questions and ideas like this one lead to innovations.
We will get back on these questions some time today.
BTW we'll probably move this question to another area in order to keep the scoring section "clean." We'll be sure the new location is flagged. Thats another tip, BTW, If you guys are ever unsure of where to post, just post in the most active thread you see and we will see that it gets where it belongs. The Psychoslots board is becoming a large archive and keeping it organized is a task, indeed.

Just one added note guys. The last chart is the actual standings in TWO different categories. Championship and Top eliminator are two DIFFERENT competitions.
All the previous charts have been painstakingly produced so that you can understand howe the scoring system works.
At the end of the year we will crown a Champion and we will also crown a Top Eliminator. It should become clearer with each race.

Ninja, Excellent job on the charts and points keeping also I just looked at the PDF file for the Winter Nat's. What a cool way to have a easy printable hard copy of that race to show the racing buddies.  |

I'll likely be moving this answer, but since you asked here, I'll leave it here for now. I mic'd (ok i calipered) A set of tuff ones tires. They come out around .215," so I assume thjats the standard we were using. Short answer: tuff ones wheels and tires are fine. We are going to loosen the number a bit from .215 to allow a fudge factor (tolerance) but the intent is to make legal the Tuff ones tire and wheel.
As a separate note, many guys got to the .460 diameter by strectching a silicone tuff ones slip over a large RRR wheel.

A note about Manufacturers Points Race.
During a race event for the purpose of scoring manufacturer points, it is assumed that the power plant
used coincides with the body's manufacturer. In the case of Gasser, Ratt Rod, and Altered race events
the power plant used is not always so obvious. If you will be using a vehicle whose power plant is not
obvious (like Henry J, Willy's, Studebaker, etc. . .), you need to identify which manufacturer it is to be
classified as. The same goes for Chevy powered Ford, Ford powered Chrysler, or a Hemi powered
Pontiac. Unidentified vehicles assume the manufacturer of the body style if obvious, else will not be
counted in the manufacturers' race.
Gator Nationals are for Gassers and Ratt Rods, the above stated method will be used when calculating
manufacturers' points. ID you car(s) before the race.
