Calling all TQ F1 racers. This Saturday is the first round of the UF1 Summer Series at everyone's favorite outdoor track, Tamiya Raceway in Aliso Viejo.

Good idea to review the rules for UF1 both newcomers and veterans. There have been some minor rule changes including in the body work section to keep with a modern 2000 era look and also regarding the extra lexan pieces that come with the body sets to help maintain the "realisticish".

Look forward to seeing as many out for round 1 of the summer series. Let's all help to get the UF1 fields and coverage back up to the excitement it was before.

You will enjoy running at TQ. Many people run the Jaco black front and yellow rears (that unfortunately are sold out everywhere) or similar. Hope to see you at one of the Summer Series races.
