good morning #USVTANation, please look over the rules for the USVTA classes, VTA GT and F1. Incl the inserts for the event

1. VTA racers must have drivers that are 3D, with head and shoulders. Please secure your driver in your car as post tech could DQ you if you lose him and your car become under weight.

2. VTA cars must have at least 3 numbers on them

...
3. PROTOform VTA tires and inserts are the ONLY legal tires/inserts allowed. You can use PF or HPI rims

4. ALL VTA, GT, and F1 motors must come from this list provided by ROAR. Make sure the motor you are running is on this list. It will not be allowed if its not listed here. The Novak Series of 25.5 motors are the only exception, but it must have the 12.3 rotor

5. USGT cars must have at LEAST 2 numbers and must have front and rear bumpers with head and tail lights. Painted or decal. It will not pass tech without them

6. Both VTA and GT cars must have visible tread on ALL 4 tires to pass tech. No slicks allowed at all at anytime

7. GT and F1 tires/rims(TC too), will need to be purchased at the Apex hobbyshop as these are the only ones that will be allowed and pass tech. And you must run them as they come so no aftermarket rims as these are pre-glued.

8. ALL F1 cars must have the head in the cockpit. No headless F1 drivers.

If you are not sure please post here in the comment.

You speak a lot about the numbers. Is this something the race will be providing? I mean how would we know what numbers to choose and not make a conflict?

It doesn’t matter what numbers you choose. It’s about the look of the car, not trying to keep track of who’s who.

Ok I know I’m not running this class at the event. But seriously guys, I know EA has to Order the correct amount of motors plus extra to cover this event. It’s imperative that all who signed up or intend to sign up for this and the Can-Am 1/12 class get your payments in.
I’m not trying to start no ��. I just want my favorite race of the year to go smoothly and be a successful event for all.

vta, you run by yourself for 1 minute. Your 1 minute pace is used to seed the 1st qualifier. Its fun.
