Scalers, im posting these rules as a guide. We'l not necessarily copy their rules. We can just use it as a guide if ever we'll come up with our own competition rules some day.
For those who are just starting, this can be helpful if ever you wish to prepare for our future scale competition.
Comments? i think di pwde magcompete ang stock hi-lift and scx10. I hope we can make a fair competition rules for all to enjoy
@JP & Factory 48 - mag SCX10 na kayo para you'll have a more capable scale rig. You can use your tamiya (hi-lift & CR01) bodies para true to scale parin yung body, just like what u guys have.

The goal of this event is to bring SCALE rigs. This is not a USRCCA pro comp. Please keep that in mind.
Street Class
• Description - An off-road vehicle that you would " DRIVE " on the street or to the trail head
• 115mm / 4.5" max tire size with a max rim size of 2.2"
• No wheelbase limit- wheelbase must 'fit' vehicle concept/body.
• 12 Minimum Scale Points Required to compete.
• No max track width. Gates will be a minimum of 11" wide so mind your track width, measure from inside cone to inside cone.
• You may modify any tire that is not on the banned list as long as it fits the CLASS that you intend to run it in. You may NOT combine two different style of tires to make one.
• You must run a complete body, including bumpers, fenders, doors & tailgates. Some fender trimming is allowed but the basic shape must be retained, Fenders may be cut, or flat fendered, but it must resemble a 1:1 rig you'd see on the street. If you remove the tailgate, you must have a complete floor and drop bed. If you want to remove your doors, you must run a full interior. "Iffy" Vehicles must be approved by the Scale Nationals Committee members.
• A shortened or lengthened body is allowable. A tubed bed must have a Functional bed area capable of carrying a full-size spare laid flat (rear fender and tailgate rules do not apply to tubed beds).
• No 4 wheel steer or rear steer at all ! If you have more than 2 axles, the FRONT axles are the ONLY ones that can steer.
• No MOA axles of any kind.
• No " DIG " of any kind is allowed.
• Single engine rigs only.
• Wheelbase is limited only by your body, and must fit in your fender wells.
• Vehicle must have a frame-railed chassis. Tubed frame rails are ok.
• Vehicle battery must be mounted on the chassis. You CANNOT mount the battery ON the steering servo/axle/upper links. The goal is to place the battery where it is not visible for a more scale appearance.
• You may add weight to your wheels, but you are only allowed a maximum of 12 TOTAL oz's. You can put it in whichever wheels you want, but 12 oz is the total. Weight can only be added internally, no external wheel weight is allowed.
• You may only run 1 truck in each class, you Cannot run the same truck in both classes, each driver is allowed one entry. You may NOT share rigs with other drivers.
If you feel your rig is borderline, be prepared to modify it if it does not pass tech inspection. AND/ OR bring a BACKUP rig just in case.
