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.

- This is the last year 13.5 BL motors will be legal in stock, illegal for stock in 2010, but ok for mod.


New Short Course Rules.


There have been some changes to the Slash rules which we will add to the Slash Tech Rules below soon, but essentially they are:

- Spec Class is a box stock Traxxas Slash only and must use stock motor and stock tyres.

- Pro Class is open to all Short Course Racing type cars including Traxxas Slash and SC10, motor limit of 13.5T brushless and tyres are limited to those specifically made for Short Course cars.

- Both classes will be run together but you must state what class you are running when entering.

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