Pro:  You won’t experience more speed or noise in less than four seconds!  Two cars hurtle down a short drag strip side by side for 402 meters (1/4 mile). Top fuel dragsters can achieve speeds topping 338 miles per hour (544.0 km/h) and finishing the 1,000-foot (304.8 m) runs in 3.62 seconds. The loser of each run “goes home” in an elimination-style format.

 

Non-pro:  Not everyone can race in a sanctioned race such as NASCAR or National Hot Rod Association (“NHRA”). However, you can still race at a non-professional event hosted at an abandoned airfield or a real track.  There are many NHRA tracks utilized for such racing.   To qualify as an XDGE sport requires 256 kph (160 mph).

FICOR Score

(Fatality & Injury Classification of Risk)

Discipline : Amateur (180mph +)
Discipline : Amateur (160mph +)
Discipline : Professional
Fatality Rate of 1: X Participants
Severe Injury Rate of 1: X Participants

FICOR score is based on XDGE's proprietary scoring system

Minimum score to be considered for XDGE is 50, and the maximum is 100. This FICOR score is based on available data combined with XDGE's proprietary scoring system which weights several factors based on importance, including: insurance risk scores for the particular activity being evaluated, reaction time available as an adverse event unfolds, speed, height, depth, technical difficulty, ability to mitigate risk during activity, availability of backup equipment, involvment of other participants, location of activity, mental focus required, outcome resulting of most mishaps such as death or hospitalization, and a determination of the likelihood of having a major accident if that sport is done frequently.
