I believe that is the initial qualifying list. Although I don't know how some people got into the Touring Worlds. HAHA. I am in the 12th Worlds list and will try to get into the Touring Worlds. Peace.

If your are not on the list and want to got to the Worlds you need to contact ROAR and petition to get in on your racing resume. You would have had to have done well at a ROAR Nats, in the Modified class, in the last 2-3 years or been a former Worlds participant to get in.
Email ROAR Administrator, Fred Howart for details:

Note that the Worlds Warm Up is a open race and anyone can go. It will be a great show and will draw more big name international drivers then the Snowbirds. There will be Stock and 19T classes at the Warm Up. The Worlds will be Mod only of course.

Warm Up Practice and Post Race Running
There will be a club race on Sunday April 25th. $15 Entry, One Class Only, 2 heats and single A-Mains. The track will open at 8am on Sunday for the Club race.
The Track will no be open on Saturday the 24th.
We have had a lot of requests from teams asking if the track will be open after the warm up. The track is open at all times as there is no locked fence to keep people out. So yes it will be open for people to run on.
The tent and table/chair rental company will be picking up their gear on Monday and Tuesday so Jorge will be on site. We have decided to have a person on site to maintain the track and run the AMB system from Monday to Wednesday. Post Warm Up Practice will $5 per racer per day. The Person on site will Sugar the track in the morning,blow it off if there are any dust/litter issues and provide racers with timing sheets
Racers attending this open practice will have to be responsible for power, shelter, tables and chairs. We will have contact info for local rental companies that can provide this equipment to out of town racers on www.fullthrottlespeedway.com and here.

Greg - Yes, the entire track will be sugared for the Worlds.
IFMAR Rules can be found here: http://members.ozemail.com.au/~ifmar/rulesindpg.htm
Read the General and the 1/12th-ISTC Rules.
You will find that ROAR follows most of the IFMAR rules very closely. This is good as we don't have to make a very big adjustment to run in an IFMAR event. On the flip side if you are a Bloc 4 (FAMAR, South America, Africa, Middle East) racer you are lost when you arrive at an IFMAR event. So next time you hear some one bagging on ROAR about following IFMAR's lead tell them to move to Brazil, Kuwait or South Africa and there they can run what ya brung!
John - here are the Motor Rules right from IFMAR's Website
