Some Changes to General Club Racing Rules.


- Lipo (7.4V) now legal in all classes. They do not need to be ROAR legal but must be hard case. Lipo sacks must still be used.

- All 1/10 540 based brushless motor systems are legal to run in mod classes. So this includes Mamba / Traxxas and many other RTR systems that were not deemed to be legal previously.

- 13.5 BL motors will not be legal in stock from now on, but are ok for mod. Brushless stock motors are 17.5T only.


New Short Course Rules for 2010.


There have been some changes to the Short Course rules which we have added to the rules on the Downloads page:

- There are now three classes, Box Stock, Pro 2 and Pro 4.

- Box Stock is any comercially available 2wd short course rtr vehicle (or kit made to rtr spec). Only radio, battery, battery/motor conectors and shock oil can be altered. This class is intended for use only during major events.

- Pro 2 is basically the old 13.5 Class and is open to all 2WD Short Course Racing type cars such as Traxxas Slash and SC10, motor limit of 13.5T brushless and tyres are limited to those specifically made for Short Course cars.

- Pro 4 is an "Open" class for 4WD and modified motor Short Course Racing type cars.

- Hard case LiPo's are acceptable in all classes. If batteries are not ROAR approved then they need to be passed by the race director.

Short Course Rules


Race competition classes - On Road and Off Road

Stock Class

17.5 brushless and 27 Turn Stock brushed motors.

1:18th or 1:16th Scale Mini-t Racing

If you have a 2wd or 4wd mini-t or similar, bring your car along and race in your own class of miniature trucks and buggies using the full track. Ryde official rules and specifications can be found on the download page. Miniature State Title event may be possible end of 2008, keep watching for more information..
