The Boneshaker is an annual T-jet HO slot car race event hosted by Mark Frazin and his fabulous Boneshaker Speedway, and co-hosted and sanctioned by the Western Pennsylvania Slot Car Club. The Boneshaker is a challenging six lane Fray style track built in California by Scott Dunlap.

The event features Super Stock T-jets following the ECHORR rules package.  A round robin qualifying race seeds individual mains with move-ups. The round robin segment features 1.5 minute heat races scored by laps and sections. The finals (or “Mains”) feature 3 minute heat races scored by laps and sections.  The A-Main final to determine the overall winner and podium finishers is run with 4 minute heats.  There is an evening support race which traditionally features BSRT G-Jets in an IROC championship points format.
