It doesn’t get any simpler than this for those of you who just want to go fast with any ready to run NSR, Slot.It or other manufacturer’s model or build your own to race – any motor, any chassis, any configuration and hardly any rules – a mandatory marked tire will keep it fair but the rest is up to each of you. Want to race your NSR out of the box just with tires? Go for it. Want to tune the crap out of your NSR? Go for it. Want to build your own torsion or rattle pan chassis? Go for it. Want to race your hand wound motor? Go for it. Don’t want to read too many rules? Great! Can’t read? Don’t worry… Like to argue over rules? Too bad – nothing to argue about here… Almost anything goes.
Simple Rules & Guidelines
- Open to any Prototype (P) or Sportscar (S), regardless of displacement, that competed between 1966 and 1971 in any endurance race which was part of the World Sportscar Championship or International Championship sanctioned by the FIA. By endurance race we mean a race lasting many hours (ie. 24, 12, 6) or over a large distance (ie. 1000k). Headlights are not a requirement (if the model raced did not have them) nor must headlights be functional.
- Bodies must be hard plastic/resin with period appropriate (actual or fantasy) livery. No two entries may have the same race number. Race numbers will be reserved or assigned (see below).
- Interiors may be made from any material. There is no minimum level of detail required by either a body or interior but attention to detail will always be appreciated.
- Rear tires must be marked Darts for this event/series and will be available in the following sizes: D11, SI0201 (or NC0102) and NC0101.
- This event is open to any adult with an eligible model and controller.
- Any model that compromises the track for others in any way will not be permitted or will be removed from the track.
Reserving Your Race Number & Purchasing Marked DArts
One (1) number may be reserved or will be assigned (absent a request) for each pair of marked DArt tires purchased up to a maximum of 3 per participant regardless of how many pair of marked DArts are purchased by anyone. Numbers will be reserved or confirmed upon receipt of payment (pickup may be on a later date or even at the event). The deadline to purchase your DArts (or reserve your racing number(s)) will be midnight the day prior to the event. Multiple models may qualify but only the top entry for each participant will advance. NO loaners or substitutions after qualifying has begun and all models will be impounded from that point on.
Contact me to order/purchase your marked DArt tires by email: [email protected].
NEW Format:
All models must either qualify or advance through elimination heats to make it to the A main for a chance to win or place in this event/series. Starting position will be assigned by random draw and all participants will have an opportunity to qualify for or advance all the way to the A main. Since this is FREE there will be no guaranteed minimum number of minutes raced. The number of participants will dictate the exact format chosen.
More Information, including a list of reserved (or available) race numbers, will be found below. Right now, all numbers, including three digit numbers, are available.
Looking forward hopefully this can become a series hosted at other tracks too, perhaps on a monthly basis. For now we will start next Friday here at The Ring… :good:
Please spread this link around to everyone who you believe may wish to participate regardless of with whom or where they raced in the past or present. Everyone is welcome.
The Happy Canadian Scale Modeler!
