So forgive me if this is a stupid line of questioning, but this will be my first ROAR nationals and am looking for some clarification about "sportsman stock" and other class rules. Similar to the above question about "amateur":
- Are you allowed to run both 17.5 and mod of a same chassis at ROAR nationals (ie 17.5 12th and mod 12th), or is that disallowed? The rules seem to state you aren't allowed, but they reference a "sportsman stock" class when doing so, which brings me to my next question...
- Will 17.5 12th be considered "Sportsman Stock"?
- If so, will you be adhering to the rules stated in the 2012 Nationals guidelines, specifically those below:
4. No advertising of RC brands on vehicles, apparel, or other sources permitted.
5. Sportsman drivers may have no other source of compensation either
monetarily or with product. This includes travel, lodging and incentive
programs.
6. Although sponsorship cannot be verified in all situations due to but not
limited by a particular sponsor refusing to notify ROAR of the driver’s status,
should the driver be protested and irrefutable proof is established of
sponsorship for that driver, sanctions will apply either immediately and/or
after Executive Committee review.
