To sum it up in one sentence. Is this pretty much the same thing as roar?

No, it is different. While the rules themselves will be much the same as those rules are based on the ifmar rules for certain aspects of vehicles,

Most off-road races sell out.
What are your plans if any to help grow on-road?

I do think there are some rules that need to be shored up and clarifyed better with roar and in house testing to me is not good as even if they are honest it leaves questions.
I really hope that you can grow state level racing and help grow the sport as I really think roar is missing the boat on this. Look at motocross for example and how they rank you. I have been saying this for awhile that we need a grass roots type system where your regular races count towards something and making it to the nationals or worlds isn't just handed to you because your name its earned through first local club races then state then region then national then worlds and to have a east west shootout would be awesome and truely grow this sport to be televised more then on the internet I beleive.
And on the rules why not just make it 17.5 no timing period on the esc or can locked rotor.
Also would like to see in the future a place that would help people wanting to start a track buisness because there are alot of places that don't have tracks around and who knows the next best racer might be there.
