Western States Dwarf Car Association 2022
GENERAL RULEBOOK
Includes Central States Dwarf Cars
2022 WSDCA
*UPDATED January 1, 2022
If it doesn't say it in this rule book, you can't do it!
With the nostalgic look of early stock cars, Dwarf Cars are 5/8 scaled copies of 1928 to 1948 vintage American coupes, sedans and trucks. They are powered by a motorcycle engine. The bodies are scaled down versions of full size cars.
The following are "COMMON SENSE" type rules. Our objective is to minimize rule changes. Do not attempt to build a Dwarf Car without first contacting WSDCA for rule clarification. No exotic equipment, (meaning unusual or out of the ordinary). If a car is built that does not meet the Dwarf Car specifications, it will not be a Dwarf Car.
Interpretations of or amendment to these rules may be made at any time. The rules and/or regulations set forth herein are designed to provide for the orderly conduct of racing events and to establish minimum acceptable requirements for such events. These rules shall govern the conditions of all events, and by participating in these events, all licensees will be deemed to have complied with these rules. No express or implied warranty of safety shall result from publication of, or compliance with, these rules and/or regulations. They are intended as a guide for the
conduct of the sport and are in no way a guarantee against injury or death to participants.
Racing is a dangerous sport and one that each driver understands and accepts the risk involved.
Check with a WSDCA official before building a new chassis. Any new style chassis
must be approved by WSDCA officials to be considered legal for competition. Any chassis that is built without approval may be considered illegal. It is the builder’s responsibility to adhere to these rules and get approval.

Each club who is a member, receives 1 vote on any rule decisions which makes you part of promoting and shaping the future of Dwarf Car Rules, locally and across the country. Each member club has a representative who speaks for them in all WSDCA Matters and the majority rules on the decisions. For
$250.00, it makes every member of your association automatically a member of WSDCA whether you have 10 members or 100, they are covered under this small fee. That membership gets drivers $25.00 less entry fee than any non member at any WSDCA event. Even if you have only a few drivers going to a few events, you got your $250.00 back quickly and have a say in the direction of Dwarf car racing.Drivers that participate are eligible for the National point fund money which is top 10 in Pro and Vet.All of the associations that host these events are VOLUNTEERS, they attend and work these events out of their own pockets.Every club in good standing that has participated in the events the year prior is eligible to host a WSDCA event. Any of you who have not attended one of these events, should plan on coming and see for yourself the comraderie and competition that exists. Bring your family and have a good time.

Friday night:
Saturday Fast Dash:
Saturday Night:
Basic Rules of Competition:
The Pro division is open to any driver allowed to compete in a WSDCA event. There will be points given in the Pro division and a champion will be crowned
The Veteran division is for driver 45 years of age or older. This division will have their own points and all of the existing rules apply. There will be points given in the Veteran division and a champion will be crowned. Drivers may enter both Pro and Veteran divisions in the same National event with 2 separate entries and 2 separate cars. Points cannot be transferred between divisions. The payout for Veterans will be based on the percentage of the cars they have for that event. A veteran division will be run at all WSDCA Nationals.
There will be points given in the Sportsman division and a champion will be crowned A Sportsman driver can be moved up to PRO or VET division at any time by WSDCA
Officials. Sportsman cannot run another dwarf division in the same night as racing. Any driver winning 2 main events in a season, will move up to Pro or Vets automatically for the following season.
WSDCA Points:
Only Saturday night Main Event points count. 300 points to the winner and then down by 2.
(ie: winner =300, 2nd place =298, 3rd place 296, etc.) Regionals will count for 150 Points to win and down by 1.
Cars who were present at the event will be receive points as long as they took a green flag. This includes DNF and DNS vehicles. They will receive equal points behind the last place finisher in Saturday night’s main event.
These are common sense type rule violations. They are designed to give Clubs an outline on how to deal with violations and categories those violations may fall under. We should keep in mind that it’s our goal as officials to promote and encourage the growth of our sport and to increase car count and not to use these violations as a method of singling out or disqualifying drivers from an event. All cars should
be teched prior to any event and all tech should be carried out by assigned personnel and should be between the driver/owner of the car in question and the tech person. Any tech issues not resolved should be brought up to the board of directors for clarification.
