RACE FORMAT
Qualifying Round 0 will be held at Mid-BC
Since we have received more than 27 cars at the deadline, there will be a "shootout" to determine who makes it into the 27 car field. Cars that do not make it into the field will be returned, entry fee will be refunded, minus a $10 return shipping fee. CGYRacer will do his best to provide feedback on these cars to ensure that there is somewhat of a learning experience for all entrants.
Since we do not know for sure who will make this year's top 27, I will ask that all interested builders post their intention to race below. Entry fee will be $26 USD (registration deadline December 31st Payment deadline will be June 1st) and the deadline for the cars to be in Kelowna, BC will be June 30th 2020 AND POSTMARKED BY JUNE 21st. PayPal and shipping information will be posted here at a later date. This gives you 6 months to build a great car.
Cars will be chosen at random in qualifying order.
Points will be awarded in descending order 27-1 with 1 point added to the top qualifier of each round. Your worst race will be thrown out so win all 10 races!
Entrant’s name must be noted on underside of car as well as instructions for body float adjustments, if any.
Car numbers must be unique; no duplicate numbers chosen on a first come basis.
BODY
No changes to wheel wells allowed or altered body length or width from OEM. Please use your discretion, the objective is that the car looks like a scale race car from the period. Cars should represent the actual race car, and not appear slammed our have wheels and tyres that appear to be out of scale. Cars can be lowered, but must maintain a “natural” stance.
-----Tires must fit fully under the fenders. Tires may NOT project beyond body work when viewed from above.
-----Bodies must be removable to allow inspection and photography after the last race, and if needed to allow maintenance and repair during the race series.
Weight – there is no weight limit or minimum. All weight must be placed inside (covered by the body) and there can be no weight placed on the bottom of the chassis or outside of the body, or any other place including the guide. NO weighted guides.
INTERIOR
Lightweight interiors allowed, but must be 3 dimensional and painted to show drivers head, shoulders, arms, steering wheel and dash. Drivetrain and wires are to be covered by the interior when peering through windows and the driver should also be clearly visible.
-----Clear window material must be present; whether a windshield or a windscreen and may be vacuum formed or plastic only.
CHASSIS
ANY chassis that is stock, aftermarket, scratch built, or 3D printed using any material, is eligible. Podded or non-podded chassis allowed
-----Inline / sidewinder / anglewinder configurations all OK
-----Underside of car chassis and body must clear track road surface, on level track, by 1.0mm minimum the gear may be lower so long as it does not interfere with the track surface.
-----Guide must be entirely under body, and NOT visible when viewed from above.
-----Traction magnets are NOT permitted.
-----Suspension permitted
-----Axle bushing and bearings are allowed on front and rear.
-----All chassis MUST be mounted like an RTR car - meaning screws through the chassis to body mounting points and no pins THROUGH the body, Velcro, etc. However, a chassis with side mounts such as the HRS/HSR-2 can be used - as long as the pins do NOT go through the body.
GEARS
ANY stock or aftermarket gears and ratios of your choice may be used.
MOTOR
ANY commercially available FC-130, FK-130, FK-180 (including Flat 6 models) or FF-050 motor with a RPM limit of 22000. Motors cans are not to be opened or modified. Wrapper can be removed for clearance. Please indicate motor RPM on can if the wrapper is removed.
WHEELS
plastic, magnesium or aluminum wheels are allowed. Wheels must have period inserts or look reasonably period for the car - no blank aluminum insert wheels please.
Minimum diameter 15.8 mm
Minimum width 7mm front
Maximum width 12mm Rear
TIRES
Only BLACK RUBBER tires are allowed with a minimum OD of 19mm for rear tires with a maximum width of 12mm at the start of the series. Minimum front tire diameter will be 17mm; minimum width of 7mm.
Tires may be cleaned in any manner prior to shipping them to the first race, but may not be prepared by oil-soaking or other chemical means. Nail polish or clear coating of front tires is allowed. TIRES CAN BE CLEANED BY the host prior to qualifying, racing, lane change or if deemed detrimental to the performance of competitors cars.
DAMAGE AND REPAIRS
If a car is damaged during a race, or has a mechanical issue, the owner will have the option to have the car returned at his cost, or have the track host repair the car. The impact (if any) to the results from that race will be the only penalty. Shipping expenses must be paid for by the owner, and the series will continue at the scheduled pace. Cars that are returned to the owner during the event, can only have the needed repair work done, and must be returned to the series without additional tuning or “refreshing”. Consideration and fairness will be employed, especially when a car is damaged during the series due to no-fault of the entrant.
If a car(s) is significantly damaged during shipping, all effort will be made to repair the car(s) to its original state – where possible the race event will be delayed to facilitate the repairs
There is no allowance made for a car to be tuned, or have parts replaced for improved performance during a series.
Cars that do not meet these rules and/or could impede the performance of other cars during the series will have a 2 point penalty applied. Multiple infractions will incur multiple penalty points up to a maximum of 12 points. Cars that are deemed to be unsafe and/or could impede the performance of other cars will not be allowed to race and will be returned and/or made compatible.
Decisions by the Race Director are final, the onus is on the builder to ensure his/her car meets the rules and are compatible to the track and fellow entrants. The Race Director reserves the right to exclude or penalize an entry at his discretion for anything else arising that is not specifically mentioned in the rules.
