Frequently Asked Questions
How do you build one of these?
Take a look at some of the build videos and see for yourself. A mini-series was prepared when the series was launched to help prospective competitors see how it’s done! (See Below)
How much does a vehicle cost?
The cheapest car in the series is valued at approximately $500. The most expensive car is valued at just over $2,000. The 2011 championship car was valued at about $1,000. How cost-effective your build will be will depend on what shape your car is in (ie. if the brake lines are gone, they cost money to replace), how much spare equipment you have, and how good your fabrication skills are. As the division matures, used cars are beginning to become available.
How many Bone Stock Chaos Cars are there?
When the new Bone Stock format was introduced 30 drivers arrived to compete in their first event, the Oct 15, 2011 Pumpkin Smasher. The event marked the largest single-day growth of a division, as the previous Chaos Car format record was 15 drivers. The Bone Stock Chaos Cars are the track’s fastest growing division.
Do Bone Stock Chaos drivers get paid?
Yes. The Bone Stocks do have a payout system (outlined below) which was introduced at the end of 2009. The Bone Stocks also have a payout structure used at their events which is announced for each race.
Are there plans to remove the obstacles from the Bone Stock Chaos Cars?
No. The obstacles have proven to be very popular with drivers and fans alike, and also control the speed of the cars around the speedway. The character of the formats depends on the presence of the obstacles and is what makes these events different from any other racing division. Drivers who wish to run full speedway without obstacles are encouraged to graduate to an upper-level division where they can continue their driver development.
Why would someone get involved with this series?
If you like thrills, meeting new people, driving cars, and generally having a great time in a safety-conscious, low-cost environment, the Bone Stock Chaos Cars are for you! Head down to the infield after the events and talk to a Chaos driver to learn how and why they got involved.
