Hubley Race Rules:
1. Scale Model, Gabriel, and Hubley Model A Fords are eligible. There are 7 body styles: station wagon,
coupe, roadster, pickup, and Phaeton, Victoria and Town sedan.
2. You may paint the cars any color you want or leave them unpainted.
3. Maximum weight of the car ready to race is 1 pound 5 ounces. As some scales may differ, a small
amount of variation will be allowed at any particular race with permission of the race judge.
4. Free or fixed steering may be used.
5. Weights, if you add them, must be secured, not loose inside the car.
6. You may file smooth, but not alter or modify the axles, axle screws, wheels, or tires. For example
you may not put in bearings or use a different type of axle screw. The original axle screws found
over the years in Hubley, Gabriel, and Scale Models are fillister head 4-40 machine screws, fillister head
4-40 self-taping machine screws, and fillister head #4 sheet metal screws. These are the only three
types of screws allowed.
7. Once the car is weighed in, the race judges will handle the cars on the track. Cars will be checked into
an impound area and will, from that point on until the end of the derby, be handled by race personnel
only. (Owner may make simple repairs between races, but races will not be delayed).
8. You may use a dry lubricant such as graphite on the wheels or none at all because wet oily lubricant
drips on the track.
9. One entrant, one car per registrant name, who must also be present to be eligible to race
10. The judge may ask the owner to remove one or more axle screw(s) and wheel for inspection before
the race.
Winners are determined by the average time of three races on different lanes. Awards are given for first,
second, and third places in each age group.
Decisions of the race personnel will be final. The top 3 places in each group might be asked to remove a
wheel and screw for inspection.
While every effort will be made to assure the safety of the cars, the committee cannot be responsible for
damage.
This area is to record your own car times.
