What We Race & Class Rules - South Hants Model Car Club

1/10th Touring Car & Rules

We run both 17.5 and 21.5 brushless motor classes with Electronic Speed Controllers (ESC) in Blinky mode, clearly identified by a flashing (blinking) light on the Speedo. Budget ESC's with no Blinky mode can also be used at the race directors discretion. The 21.5 class cars will be identified by a green 21.5 sticker in the front windscreen.

Any make of 1/10th scale Touring Car can be used.

Any 1/10th TC Bodyshell can be used, cut out neatly to ensure there are no sharp edges.

Any rubber slick or treaded tyre designed for touring car allowed. No foams.

2s 7.4v Lipo batteries can be used, All Lipo’s Must be Hard Cased.

Weight Limit, minimum 1320g.

Tamiya Trucks & Rules

This class is for running Tamiya TT-01/TT-01e trucks. It is seen as a fun class therefore we are saying to keep the trucks kit standard as they come out of the box with the following changes being allowed:

Speedo - Can either be the kit Tamiya one or the Hobbywing 1060 (a must if your running lipo batteries)

Only Tamiya Torque Tuned (TA54358) or Core RC 21 (CR711) motor may be used

Kit standard gearing but a steel 19T pinion may be used

Oil Filled Shocks

Alloy Centre Prop Shaft

Adjustable Turnbuckle Kit

Ball Bearing kit

Tamiya, Montech & Bittydesign Shells are allowed

M-chassis Wheels with kit tyres and inserts

Ride Pre-glued Cut Slick Tyres 24mm

Non-kit hardware including screws and servo saver/horn may be used. Differentials must not be locked - When either wheel is rotated by hand, the opposite wheel must rotate freely in the opposite direction.

The use of any type of traction compound and or tyre warmers are prohibited

Minimum Weight for all Trucks 1500g

We would like to think that all members will stick to the rules without being checked as we are all here to have FUN and how embarrassing it would be if someone was found cheating.

We are open to run any other classes suitable for our track either in with one of the above classes. Or if 4 or more wish to run a separate heat may be arranged.

NITRO, IC OR PETROL CARS ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THE TRACK OR LAND AT ANY TIME
