    Default Import Showdown May19th @ Silverdollar Raceway in Reynolds, GA!!!

    Hello Everyone,
    So as you may have heard or already seen, we have a lot of new stuff happening this year.
    Import Showdown has partnered with SOUTHRNFRESH, JDM Parts Garage, and S3 Magazine, bringing together ALL MAKES & MODELS for an afternoon of Drag Racing & Hard Parking.

    The event is held at Silver Dollar Raceway in Reynolds, GA. Event will be held Sunday May 19th, 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.

    As always pay outs will be based on turnouts, but with more sponsors chomping at the bit to be apart of our grassroots event, more money is coming in.
    We also have Comp Clutch giving away 3 clutchs to the winners of the M/S, Streen Tuner & All Motor Classes this year!
    This event is a blast guys We do not profit from this event, but payout as much as possible to the racers. The goal is to have fun, bring the racing community together, and maybe make a little money if you win.


    Gates open @ 10am

    10$ Admission
    20$ tech card to race

    100$ Vendor Booths
    * email us for details on Vendor spots

    Track information can be found here:
    Silver Dollar Raceway - Home



    Sorry, a 240 with a Chevy motor is not qualified to race. But you can TnT or hang out in the REVIVAL.

    the rules haven't been changed since January. I don't understand the confusion.There is a MASTER rules at the bottom that covers all classes generally speaking


    Rules That Apply to All Classes
    · 3, 4, 5, or 6 Cyl Vehicles Only or those with Rotary motors. V8 can run TNT
    -Note: This is a total cylinder count, any additional form of combustion engine or cylinder adds to the count!
    · Any name plate (import or domestic)
    · Doors must open and close from inside and outside the vehicle. No center drive configurations. Dash must remain.
    · Vehicles must be street legal in all other aspects not specifically defined as allowed by rule such as, but not limited to: headlights (removal of one for air indication is allowed except where noted), cooling system & brake lights. This includes hoods, bumper covers (bumper removal ok).
    · No Lexan except in Showdown and All Motor Comp, no single piece front ends except in Showdown and All Motor Comp
    · All classes except "Showdown" and "All Motor Comp" must carry a recently valid registration tag (current year or previous year i.e. expired is ok, 2+ years old is not).
    · Wheelie bars are only allowed in Showdown. Strictly forbidden in all other classes.
    · Vehicles can be towed to the track in all classes, assuming other street ability requirements of that class are met
    · Only one vehicle is allowed in one class. A driver my enter multiple vehicles and run multiple classes. However, there are no considerations made for delaying competitions to accommodate this.
    · Factory frames, no significant frame replacement. No back halving or tube chassis vehicles including Rail Cars.
    · Any protests of competitors in your class MUST BE BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF ISD STAFF BEFORE THE 1ST ROUND OF ELIMINATIONS, NO EXCEPTIONS!

    I don't have a car that qualifies for any of these classes anymore, but I might come down just to support the event as a spectator. It's a great event.

    I agree 100% with you on this. There really aren't any events around here for a Pro Chassis import. Street class is where its at.

    hell theres not really a class ANYWHERE for a pro chassis sport compact. Englishtown, thats it...for the most part.

    The rules are what they are but usually when those cars show up, they are slow as xmas in the AMC class and the street chassis cars are raping.

    we were originally planned for Formula-D weekend which is much harder to compete with than Rolex for sure. Cant win them all.

    I'd imagine with this crowd, that would be disaster competing with Formula D. Hope you guys had fun. Who has some good reviews or battles to tell from this event?

    no it will not move. Theres a chance of rain everyday, right now theres only a 50% chance of rain. If you have lived in GA long enough you should know a 50% forecast in the summer means It might rain for a half hour and move on. The track has no curfew and water can be dried. Most weather will stay north. make your own judgements at the last minute if you wish but my rig will be parked in its pit spot sat night.

    i've driven 7 hrs for a race with the same forecast. It rained for 30 minutes the whole day and we finished everything just fine.
