Default 2009/10 Hurricane All Star Series/USVTA Great Lakes Series

Just thought I'd post this up here as a reminder. Victory RC is always a great place to race, and some of the best USVTA drivers in the country will be there.....

"2009/10 Hurricane All-Star Carpet Series……5th year

http://www.rctech.net/forum/wisconsi...et-series.html

5 total races……7 total races for VTA only

November 7th-Victory RC Raceway in Green Bay, WIhttp://www.victoryhobbies.com/index.html

Trans AM
Only HPI part #4797 31mm Rear and #4793 26mm Front Vintage compound treaded tires with stock inserts are allowed.
Tires must have full visible tread on tire at first qualifier of the day.
Only Novak 21.5 motors are allowed.
All Current USVTA rules will be followed
No 1-ways are allowed…..cars must be full time 4 wheel drive all the time

***we will not allow the Turbo feature to be enabled for the all Tekin ESCs. You may run all the normal timing advance you wish, but the Turbo must be off. Trans Am is about cars that are fairly equal, and good racing. This is meant to ensure we are trying to reach that goal. We will have a Hot Wire and PC with us to help anyone make this change at any race of the series.***

Points
Will be the standard format of 100, 99, 98 etc point system with 1 bonus point each race for the TQ of the class.
There will be 5 total races with 1 race(your lowest number) being your throw out
We will use the best 4 of the 5 races to count towards the overall point total with that throw out total being your tie breaker.

The only class these points will not be the same for will be for Trans AM…..This year the Hurricane All-Star Carpet Series will be run in conjunction with the USVTA Great Lakes Series. The USVTA GLS will have 7 total races with 5 races counting towards its point’s total. There will be two races in addition to the 5 regular Hurricane Series races ...1 additional race in November and 1 in January. The last USVTA GLS race will be the last All-Star Carpet Series race so awards will be handed out then. This also gives everyone in Trans AM an opportunity to make up a bad performance or a missed date at one of the additional races.

Rules and Dates are subject to change....
