The following are a few rule clarifications posted by Bob Ingersoll on RCFiles:



Explanations of rules

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few explanations/ clarifications are posted below.

Before we get started on that, we want everyone to plan on attending
and have FUN. Effort has been given to minimize regulations,
but still give all racers an opportunity to be competitive. The intent
is to build this into an annual event that is looked forward to and gather
wider participation going forward.

We were asked to back the start time up to 11:00 am and we did so to
try and complete the event by 4:00 pm, so we can all go to dinner together
after. PLEASE, I need a head count 2 weeks before the event to make
arrangements. Post here or shoot me an e-mail if you plan to attend.

Requirements are 3 driver teams.
It is required for each driver to compete for 45 minutes.
Each team is required to supply a marshal for the duration of the event.
If you want to bring a buddy who is not driving to marshal, as long as
they are a ROAR member, it’s ok.

The rule stating that there can only be one car from each team on the
track at a time on Sunday is twofold:
The drivers stand cannot handle 45 racers at a time and all teams need to
to practice.
At the point where teams are switching drivers/ cars, there can only be one car per
team on the track counting laps.

Each team is limited to 3 chassis, they will be marked.
You can enter one chassis and all drive the same.
You can enter two chassis and have one of your electric/ offroad
buddies come join you.
Or, you can enter three chassis and run them all.
We don’t want a potential team to feel like they have to have
10 chassis to compete, but if a team wants to enter and run one car
they can.

Each team is limited to 4 bodies total for the team. If you decide to
enter a mixed chassis team (1/8 and 200MM), your team has to
make the decision on which extra body will be entered.
Bodies will be marked. Again, we don’t want anyone to feel they have to
have 10 bodies prepped to compete.
If you enter a MIXED team, your 200mm bodies can be CamAm/ GTP, since
you will be competing as a 1/8 scale team anyway.
