Sanctioned status usually takes a few years to be approved. All clubs will be involved in voting for the class to get the sanctioned status.
By then a very clear set of rules are created and understood by all clubs and AARCMCC.
Last year at the nationals was the first time with around 4-5 running as a support class and they where just converted 1/8th buggies with onroad style bodies.
Now they are making the chassis specifically for this class, releasing foam tyres etc.
Pull-start was also the same, in my option as soon as it became sanctioned, the class got too serious, expensive and now no longer exist.
It was good to see some kids running these cars at ACT and it would be ashame to see GT get too technical, serious and expensive for the next generation to get involve in IC onroad.

I'm not so sure
Perhaps the next generation (or current) want to run tourer but can't because it's too technical, serious and expensive?

The most popular GT cars in NSW are the Serpent Cobra GT, Team C GT, Mugen MGT7 and Kyosho GT2. There are a few other manufactures out there, but I feel these are the best cars on the market at the moment. I won't be able to attend this year due to changing jobs not long ago and not being able to take leave. It will be good to see as many GTs as possible supporting this event. I love watching the fast guys race their tourers and 1/8ths, but enjoy the fun of the GT cars. If you have any questions send me a PM. I have a general base setup for the GT cars to get you started.

Looking forward to the road trip, it will be nice to race on such a cool track. I think the GT class will be great, it is definitely hotting up in nsw, 1/8 onroad is always fast and exciting and will be great racing also. Can't wait Now just need to run in engines and get some new bodies painted

Entry List Page 1
Hey guys, I have started an entry list on page 1. We are starting to get some traction now.
With just over a month to go, lets keep the entries coming in.
Also note that entry listed on e-Laps or post 1 is not official until payment is confirm.
We can't chase payment on the weekend of the nationals and any entry
not paid prior to close of entry is considered a late entry or may be excluded
from the event.
We will be doing regular checks on the Club banking statement to confirm payment with entry.
By all means enter a soon as possible, but please make the payment prior to close of entry date.
Thanks a million,
Tim

Meal Tickets (Saturday)
Entry List update on page 1. (Just over a month to go) Keep the entries coming in.
We will be having our presentation dinner catered at our facility on Saturday after the completion
of qualifying. There will be a selection of hot roast meals available to all competitors as part of their entry.
This should make it easier for competitors by not having to rush out to a pub/restaurant.
(We can then get back to our homes/ hotels earlier to rebuild cars for the finals)
Please note that extra meal tickets must be purchased prior to close of entry.
Cost of meal ticket is $20. If you have any pit man/women, family members
or friends whom would like a roast meal on Saturday at the track please pre
purchase your tickets.
Payment can be made to the same bank account for entry fee.
Name: MRCCR BSB: 123 617 Acc: 22059326
(Entry fee + $20 for each extra meal ticket)
If your entry has been paid without the extra meal tickets, just add your
surname in the reference box with the word (M) to pre purchase meal tickets.
Tickets can be collected at the track.
(Note: There will be a limited amount of tickets available at the track, please pre-purchase if you don't want to miss out)
