Is it possible to run 2 stock touring classes? I know in off-road they don't let you run stock and mod buggy.

It is my understanding that if you run mod, you can run 13.5 but you cannot run 17.5 or 21.5. You can run 13.5, 17.5 and 21.5, USVTA and USGT if you want with no problems.

Are we going to have a World GT class?

At what point will you or ROAR say there wont be one? Just don't want to drag all this stuff down if its going to be canceled at the last minute.

What is the first day we can drop off our trailers for the event? And do we need to reserve a spot and will the gate be locked each night? Thanks in advance

Only ROAR National Sponsor trailers will be able to park inside the gates.
We have enough covered pits to provide FREE spaces for 100 Racers.
We encourage Our Sponsors to set up on Tuesday. All sponsors will also have VIP pit spots afforded to them for their tream.
All other trailers will be parked outside of the track on the grass next to fence.
There will be no vehicles allowed inside the gates. All loading and unloading will be done at the gates.
I hope that this answers your questions and look forward to seeing everyone at the ROAR National next week!!!
All those traveling please be safe and we wish you all good luck!!

ROAR just announced the weight change for TC down to 1350 Grams. Will this be in place for NATS next week?

I did notice this was on ROAR's website today, this would be really poor timing for that organization to make a change as significant as this a week before Paved Nationals; When 4 of the classes that are being run are TC. Seems to me that a much better solution would be to enact this a day after Nationals. Hopefully this will be the case.

That is the new weight for TC BUT it will not be in affect for the ROAR paved nationals. All changes must be done 30 days prior to an event. So it will take effect 30 days from the announcement.

Paved nats will be 1380 as always.

Thanks EA, I am glad this will be a non event for the Nationals.
