While I don't run this class - I have helped fellow racers and have been asked the question "What rules are the Dalton and Battlefield track using?" I hope I'm not out of line by posting the ROAR rules.

Dimension and Technical Inspections Practices

Technical Inspection

degradation of foam inserts, the pre‐race minimum allowable diameter of a mounted tire is 4.20 inches.
No Bald or custom cut tires are allowed. Tracks and Promoters are encouraged to select a “Stated” tire
that works best for their particular location.

Width and Wheelbase Inspection –
Width and Wheelbase of the vehicles will increase/decrease during the compression/extension of the
suspension. Vehicle should be inspected at Static Stance in ready to race condition.

Height –
Minimum Overall Height is measured with vehicle at Static Stance in ready to race condition
Body Inspection

Cab Setback –
Minimum setback is measured from a point equal to the Front (centerline) of the body to the beginning
of the windshield/lower rock guard.

Cab Profile –
Minimum depth of the cab is measured from the Beginning Point (centerline) of the Windshield/Lower
Rock Guard to the Rear Reference point of the Cab

Roof Panel –
Minimum Width is measured from outer most points of the roof section to the upper side window

Here are the directions from Atlanta to the Battlefield track.

Battlefield Directions

If you use the street view at the end point you can see the track.

We don't have any public pictures of the Battlefield track .Yet. but if you do a youtube search for offr0aden you can see last years track and Dalton's current track in action.

I'm sure it will be something like last year - we can toss out 2 or 3 races and the top 3 of each class place. Dion and Ed will / should jump in and explain in more detail.

**Fixed the link**

I believe a beginner class would be nice for the young ones and the true beginners is anyone else up for it.I would let the class be run what you bring and give these guys a fun day of racing instead of having to run people who have raced for years.
That is if ed and dion is alright with it!

I have added it already it is the stock core truck.

Adding more class will prolong the races. Which opens up the pouring in of complaints.

All I can say is 1/8th buggies and SC10's do not play well. I hit one at Dalton and the (Wheel assembly) front lower arm and the shock cap, broke off.

- What about a new class - where we install our ring gears on the opposite side and we can race in reverse????

The rear wheel steering would make for a good show
