OWOOT stands for "One wheel on/over track", and is a rule for certain competitions.
The rule means that you have to have at least one wheel on or over the track at all times. This means you cannot leave the road and make shortcuts, which makes for a totally different, cleaner and more perfectionistic races. The expression and the rule were first developed by Ruepel and Pershing II who made the ISA competition with this rule in 2002.
There is one general exception to the OWOOT rule: the grass square in the middle of a jump.
"Strict" OWOOT rule means no shorcut at all, meaning that racers must drive all stunt elements completely and "follow the yellow dots" in loops and corkscrews.
"Free" OWOOT rule means that you can cut some stunt elements (like driving only the right side of the corkscrew left/right), or jump over them.
List of "Strict" OWOOT competitions :
- IRC competition
- WSC competition
List of "Free" OWOOT competitions :
- ISA competition
- IMSA Cup (jump over corks up/down and left/right allowed, but no loopcut allowed)
- HOTU Stunts competition in 2003 (all cuts allowed as long as you stayed over the road)
