For the 2012 event in the Netherlands, the 1:12th scale event was Sunday-Monday-Tuesday, and the TC event was Wednesday-Thursday-Friday-Saturday, meaning Sunday was the travel home day.
Are you saying for 2014, the finals day of the TC event will now be Sunday? That would massively change travel plans for people I think!

This should be the biggest event of the year for these classes, and yet there seems to be limited information available. It might seem like a long way off, but an event of this type represents a massive undertaking at considerable cost for the majority of competitors.
Where can we stay for the 1/12 event?
On which days will the event(s) actually run?
As for the idea of having the opening ceremony in Kissimmee and then driving to the other side of Florida to actually race... who on earth thought that would be a good idea?! If I was American I would want to fly into Tampa, race 1/12, drive to Kissimmee, race touring car, and then fly home from Orlando...

I thought the Sunday was always reserved for a makeup day in case of rain?

2300 mile drive... I doubt it!

With airport code as for opening ceremony that's Ifmar call on the idea but still working with them to make it sensible

Will the 'Timed Practice' will be in heats of some description, as opposed to being just an 'open track'?

Any chance that you guys can use Youtube for the event coverage like the ETS races? It's the best I've ever seen for R/C races.

That's a shame.
The free streams on LiveRC aren't worth watching and the advertising is infuriating.
You'd hope it could have been covered for free and in high quality like the ETS races. More people watching it and enjoying it can only be positive.
Missed opportunity by IFMAR.
