paige simpson pass time

Before each pass (that is, each run down the drag strip), the racer and his or her car are brought out, and the contestants are permitted to ask questions about the car, such as the size or power of the engine, the type and size of the tires, and the number of previous passes the car has made.



Paige Simpson is the official

After all questions have been asked, the contestants secretly enter their predictions of the car's elapsed time to the nearest 1/100 of a second. (The display at the track usually indicates the car's time down to 1/1000 of a second; the thousandths digit is ignored.) The car then makes its pass, following procedures of drag racing (burnout, staged, and runs, using the Christmas Tree). The contestant whose prediction was closest to the actual time wins money; in addition to the scores being displayed on the contestants' podiums, host Wagner physically hands the winning contestant the money.

Occasionally, a driver will commit a foul (red light starts do not count, so mostly boundary line violations), or their car will break down in some way as to make a pass impossible or unsafe. These events are collectively known in-show as a "catastrophic failure". When that happens, the contestant who enters the slowest time wins the money.
