Cheers

Thumbs up

21.5 seems to have the most entries::

Regards F1 what are the National Rules / requirements I have a fgx setup with at 27 turn brushed motor (it seems to go fairly well) will this need to be changed ?

Challenge Cup next year will be run under the new national rules that have been created. There will be a few changes in the rules but mainly to tires being rubber not foam, "except on carpet tracks" as per TC rules. Most clubs run 21.5 blinky now even Castle Hill is looking at changing the rules to this fomat next year. So Summer Nats 2013 will be following the same format.
Will post the full rule set for F1 over the weekend.

On a different note there has been discussion on other threads about bodies for 21.5 car next years CC rounds. The rules will not change for the Summer Nats as we are only 4 weeks out from the event but I would like to talk to all in that class on that weekend in regards to a set body style for the class for 2013 similar to IIC in vegas 2012 or TITC 2013 to create a approval list of bodies.

I think everyone should have to make their own out of cardboard. No commercially available bodies allowed!

It's not really railroading if it's what the majority of F1 drivers want. On Tuesday SMA's F1 drivers voted almost unanimously to drop 21.5 boosted and run blinky. The difference in lap time was 0.3s when some of the guys reverted to blinky for the final.
