G'day Andrew, as Cal has mentioned above and in the class rules for the GP

This is a non-spec control motor event

I would imaging a lot of drivers would want to save their AARCMCC control motor for state and national events.
In saying that though, your are most welcome to use one if you wish to gain some knowlwedge for that motor and the track before titles later in the year.

A driver can only enter 1 touring car class. For instance an entered modified driver cannot run stock or sportsman or vice versa.

Great to see, we just hit 30 entries at 6 weeks out from the event.

Keep those entries coming in.

If it encourages more 12th scale entries we would consider 13.5 Stock or Modified

Was thinking of a trip down from Qld but only for trucks. Being a demo class, are you capping the entries at 10?

Hi Brendan, Looks like they maybe the most popular class.
We would only cap trucks at 2 heats (20 entries). Come and have some fun!

Had a few questions regarding Tamiya truck class rules. As stated in the 1st post. Trucks will be as per stock kit out of the box + bearings ONLY.

No other hop ups allowed. Lipo batteries can be used.

3 weeks to go. Trophies have been ordered. Some great prizes for concourse and raffle.

Keep those entries coming in.

Was there been any feedback on changing 1/12 Eurostock to 13.5?

I haven't entered as yet (waiting for some logistics to fall into place) but I am keen for a pre-NSW Titles trip as I've never done a NSW Titles before

Drivers have your say!
