NASCAR
NASCAR will a basic RTR type car with some modifications to
improve reliability and versatility of the class. It is meant to be a simple
fun class and tech will be in keeping with this spirit. No excessive
modifications. If a violation is found the race director will decide if the car
will be given a one race exclusion from rule if it is not deemed to be a major
advantage and the racer is not a repeat offender.
We will be racing amateur and expert classes. Initially
racers will be able to decide which ranking they will race in. Once they have
raced in NASCAR expert they may not revert back to amateur status. Three wins will
require a move up from amateur to expert.
