DTRC race series for carpet will be a 7 race series with two throwouts
(only your 5 best scores count). Points will be tallied and accumulated
through the final race in March; 50 points for first, 49 for second and
so on. 1 TQ point will be awarded only if you also win the main. We
will be giving out Gold, Silver and Bronze medals for A mains in each
class each week for the winter season. Entry fees will be $10 for first
class, $5 for additional classes. DTRC races will be on Saturdays,
October thru March and will include the following classes:
1/12 Stock Pan Car 4-cell (CRC 3.2R, AE 12L4/L5 or similar)
1/18 2WD (Losi Mini-T, Slider; Robitronic Scalpel, BRP or similar)
1/14 Sedan (Recoil, Tailwhip, HPI micro RS4, Xray M18, AE 18R** or similar)
1/18 4WD truck/buggy (AE 18T, 18B; Losi mini LST; Duratrax Vendetta,
Mini quake; Xray M18T or similar) This is usually the most popular
class
**The Associated 18R is a sedan only with the short stock arms and
sedan body. Changing to the truck or buggy arms will move you to the
4WD truck/buggy (open wheel) class.
• 2wd and 4wd class - foam tires recommended but not required. Upgraded
motors, servos, aluminum parts etc will be allowed. The Pro class has
been eliminated as virtually all of the 4WD cars are now running
brushless and most 2WD run the extended (slider) chassis.
• 4 cars required to make a class each day. Classes may be combined as necessary to ensure all who came get to race.
• 3mm minimum chassis height is required to save wear on the carpet.
This is measured at the lowest point with batteries installed.
DTRC Saturday races will be 3 quals and mains - registration closes at
10:30 racing begins at 11AM Sharp! If we get off schedule we'll simply
drop the third heat to get everyone out by 5:30PM at the latest but
we're typically done 4:30-ish. Trinity Red Dot is the traction compound
of choice at this track but we're also testing Jack the Gripper. Medals
will be awarded for 1st-3rd place in all Mains.
Sunday races will follow similar rules and pricing to the DTRC series
but are run in a less formal manner with no medals awarded. Races are
the second sunday of each month. Races start at 1PM, with only 2 heats
and a main for each class; plan to finish around 4-4:30 PM. If you're a
new racer I'd encourage you to try these races first, you'll learn a
lot in 3 hrs! New racers race free their first day. Practice opens as
soon as the store does.
Thank you Dakota Thunder RC club for sponsoring the DTRC series prizes!
Terry and Jeff will share race director duties for all races. Please
post with any questions and we'll update this topic as necessary.
