You should have the same classes as last year.

TC Stock
TC 19T
TC Mod
12th Stock
12th 19T
12th Mod
TC Masters

That way if you just want to run 1/12th you can run two classes.

I know OD will run just one being the team leader for a lot of cars.

I'm not sure that Eddie was saying that to add 1/12th stock they would have to drop masters. I think we might want to wait for clarification on that. I only said what I did to get a rise out of the old farts, and waddaya know, two of the oldiest fartiest ones jumped right in!

and one Tazmanian something-or-other

If you're not sure; then, Eddie may well want to clarify his statement further.

"We are working to see if 1/12th stock may be added and possibly masters being removed.....". That lead-in of "We are working..." makes it pretty clear to me that the 1/12th scale classes may be more cherished in the Northwest.

Their call...No problem. We'll see.

1/12th is still pretty slim pickin's in the NW.
2005 onroad regionals-0
2006 onroad regionals- less than a full main. ( wasn't there but only 17 or so racers entered, total for all classes)
Keep the old farts, er ah, Masters class.

EddieO had stated:

"We are working to see if 1/12th stock may be added and possibly masters being removed.....".

...having been through the same with ROAR at our Nationals last year I just wanted to provide some signup counts to show that Masters did not have the lowest number of signups. I *think* that now with the RMT, ultimately it will be ROAR making the decision ...I have also emailed all the remaining relevant ROAR executives with this information, don't know that I'll hear back from them but will post if I do.

Thanks Harsh.

Missed you at the Regionals this weekend. Finished second to Austin B in 13.5 Brushless. If it isn't one Brumley, it's the other one beating the near 60 year old...me...

There's nothing implied in the title "Paved on-road Nationals" that would require them being outdoors. It's not in the rules either, so that would be just your interpretation, though it may be shared by others.
I myself do enjoy getting outdoors after carpet season is over but about midsummer after a couple of too-hot days and wind, etc I'm ready to go back inside. Having the nats indoors this year will take some of the variables out of the equation which may help out-of-towners

besides, we should keep some of the old farts out of the sun. Harsh's tan is already dark enough and Still Bill could expire from heat stroke cuz he's really really old
