Will have 2 classes of RCGT, same tech specs, divided by skill level

Expert - If you have a chassis sponsor at all , or run in the faster TC classes competitively, then you should be racing here.

Sportsman - If you are a newer racer, or just are more concerned with having fun... You prolly should be racing here..

RCGT is growing exponentially, and the talent of the drivers and the setups are progressing quickly.

Also.. .the points for the RCGT series are a little different, you can earn a maximum of 203 points for any given race.


100 Points maximum for Qualifying

Regarding motor rules.. If it is listed on ROAR's website, your good to go.

Motors: Any ROAR Legal 27T Brushed motor is also legal. 17.5 Brushless Motor: Any manufacturer. No prototypes. Must be OTC (over the counter)

From what I can tell a 4,600kv motor is about a 9.5 turn. RCGT is limited to 17.5 motors.

Looks like the 4th track is in the mix... Just have to firm it all up, and the schedule will be posted... Hopefully this weekend, it will be done.

Who is interested in custom number plates.

For this upcoming series, you get a set number for the entire series..

So if your Number 12 at the first race, you are number 12 for the entire series...

Village Raceway has some quickly up-and-coming racers in RCGT. I think competition is going to be extremely tight at our next club race.
