Womp Mafia Purpose & Class Rules
Last update 10/3/2022 to correct motor part numbers
The Womp Mafia is a different concept designed to attract new racers to the hobby by improving the scale racing appearance with minimal investment. How do we do this? First a minimal choice of parts are approved. Second, those parts are flexible to tailor the racing to your current customers. Third, there are no additional organization race fees. Last, Caveman Bodeez sponsors prizes, plaques, goodies and pays for Facebook advertising of the event in your zip code.
The Womp Mafia racing focuses around the appearance of the body. This offers racers a wider variety of racing while still reducing costs. It’s very simple. Choose a body, some parts details, a date for you’re event and you are racing. But it will take more than just going fast to win a Womp Mafia event. You have to look good doing it too.
Please do not look for “gray” areas to exploit. If it isn’t mentioned, it is not legal. Tech Inspector/Store Owners have the final say. This hobby is suppose to be fun. Lets keep it that way. Please leave attitudes and language at home. Remember, a bad day of racing is better than a closed store. Competition is real but these are inexpensive toy cars. It isn’t the corner marshal’s fault you crashed. Learn to drive.
NOTE: Race fees are at the discretion of individual stores or clubs.
The use of tire traction compounds, softening agents or silicone tires are at the discretion of individual store or clubs.
***All other rules are to be followed without exception***
These rules are free to use. We only ask stores or clubs wishing to use these rules for events, points series or weekly racing venues to contact us at Cavemanbodeez@gmail.com for free advertising opportunities.

Race Points
Points will be awarded in an inverted configuration beginning with last place getting 1 point, next to last gets 2 points and so on. When reaching the third finish position, each podium spot is awarded an additional point from the previous position. Example 4th gets 10 points, 3rd gets 12 points, 2nd gets 14 points and 1st gets 16 points.
These points along with concours points are used to determine the event winner.
Concours Judging
Concours will be judged on the following criteria. Judging is recommended to start at 5 points and add or decrease as determined by the guidelines.
Overall appearance 1-10 – Does the design and sponsors flow with the car, is it generally attractive. Single color car would not rate as high as multi color paint schemes. Do the colors match the sponsor colors?
Realistic concept 1-10 – What level of realism does the car have? Are the color choices realistic?Are the numbers/sponsors placed and sized in realistic proportions and locations? Airbrushing faded from one color to another isn’t very realistic. A single color paint with only sticker numbers generally is not very realistic.
Percentage of paint 1-10 – What percent of the car’s design is painted. Is the coverage even? Do colors bleed or show through? Are the sponsors painted? Single color and stickers would not rate as high as high as multi color paint and fewer stickers.
Sticker cut and placement 1-10 – Where stickers are used, are they placed even? Are they neat and cut close to the graphics? Are there wrinkles in the stickers?
Interior detail 1-10 – Is it off the shelf or did someone put time into it. Self painted interiors should considered effort for additional points regardless of neatness. Do the interior colors match the exterior colors? Did someone add details to a purchased interior?
Racer’s Choice Concours
Racers can vote for two separate cars they feel represent the best appearing cars at the event. Simply circle the next highest number available on the bottom of the tech sheet. Racer’s votes will be included when determining the concourse winners. Concours points are to be added to the race points to determine the overall event winner.
Final authority regarding parts & rule compliance is entirely at the discretion of the
raceway. If it is not explicitly written it is not allowed.
