Mobile RC Racing Mid-Summer Meltdown Series
by Brian Davis on Wed Jun 01, 2011 8:32 pm
In the past the local onroad club has hosted the Mid-Summer Meltdown trophy race in the parking lot. In lieu of running a single race, this year I'd like to run this as a series. The series would consist of five races on the following dates-
June 12th
June 26th
July 24th
August 14th
August 28th
The points will be awarded as follows-
1st place - 1 point
2nd place - 2 points
3rd place - 3 points
etc..
The lowest number of points at the end of the series is the champion. There will be no points awarded for TQ. This points series is meant to award racers who win during a large turnout versus beating only 1 or 2 other drivers. If a racer misses a week, they will still be given the maximum number of points given for that class on the missed date. There will only be one drop in this series, so the best 4 of 5 races count. If a class does not have at least 3 drivers at 4 of the 5 races, it will be dropped from the series. If a non-points class meets these qualifications, it will be added to the series for points.
The following classes will be eligible for points -
Stock Touring
17.5 brushless or 27t stock motor
2s lipo/6cell nimh
Open ESC
Rubber tires
4-door sedan body
Nitro Touring
4wd nitro-powered (.12-.15) touring car
Foam tires
4-door sedan body
Pan Car Oval
13.5 sensored brushless motors

Any oval body based on NASCAR, ARCA, or Nationwide series
Add-on wing allowed
Vintage Trans-Am
See USVTA rules for chassis/body/tire specs
21.5 with a maximum 5.2 FDR or 25.5 open FDR only
2wd Short Course Truck
Any shortcourse tire (rubber, foam, slick, treaded, whatever..)
Production 2wd offroad short course trucks
13.5 brushless or 19t brushed motor
2s lipo or 6cell nimh battery
Outlaw Oval (electric)
2wd offroad truck chassis
13.5 brushless or 19t brushed motor
2s lipo or 6cell nimh battery
Outlaw body preferred

**Classes may be added/dropped depending on turnout in those classes**
Good luck, and I hope to see everyone on June 12th.....
