OK, so I have some questions about how competitors from North America qualify to participate in the Electric on-road worlds that is due to be hosted by ROAR in 2014. Since 2013 is a qualifying year I wonder if someone can explain what is required to qualify?

As I read the IFMAR rules I can see that 20 slots are open for 1/12th Scale and 32 for TC.

The ROAR rule book states that the allocation is 30 slots with the possibility of more slot for the host country.

So now for the questions:

Where do allocations come from in the North America? Carpet Nationals, Paved Nationals, both or other level 5 races?

If you qualify in one class are you also allowed to run both 1/12th Scale and 1/10th Scale?

It says that the number of people qualified is based on the number of entries...is this based on a number or a percentage of participants? (I mean is it top 10 in each modified division or top 20% in each division?) The rule is not very clear.

If ROAR allocates 30 competitors and IFMAR allows 20 in 1/12th scale and 32 in 1/10th scale...which number is correct?

So since Rick Hohwart was the only ROAR driver to make an A main in the last worlds...that only locks up one slot in ROARs total block of drivers.

I decided to post this here... because the ROAR forums have very low traffic and I am not sure how much response I would get over there.

Anyway if you have some info to share please do...please don't speculate if you don't know the answers that just creates more issues than it solves.
