2016 Keilor GForce Invitational 8-10 January 2016 EP10OFR
Invitational style racing returns to Keilor January 2016!
The 2016 Keilor GForce Invitational event consists of 2 x Invite classes (Mod and 17,5)where the top drivers from around the country are invited to compete head to head over 5 rounds of 2wd and 5 rounds of 4wd with both classes counting towards the overall result. Invitations have been sent out following the results of the Nationals, State titles and 2015 Invitational (RSVP 11 December Invite Drivers).
The event also has 'open' classes for 2wd and 4wd(Mod and 17,5) where the winner of each class gets an automatic entry into the Invitational class the following year. With the top drivers running in the invite class, this allows those 'knocking on the door' to shine and compete for a coveted invitation for 2017!
The format for the open classes will be slightly different for 2016, with 2wd on Saturday and 4wd on Sunday. The race format will be 3Q x 5 minutes and 1 Final x 10 minutes, mirroring the Reedy race held in the USA. A junior class will also be offered for 2016.
Thanks to our event sponsors GForce, Ryper Hobbies and Traction RC for their support of the event. Please show your support for them by visiting their pages below.
