BRCA 1/10th Off Road - National Winter Open

BRCA Winter Open Championship 2010. --- 1/10th. Off-Road

As you may have read in the 2009 AGM Minutes, the BRCA 1/10th Off Road Section are organising a new style event for January 2010.

Whilst the exact format of the meeting is still being worked upon, this is a guide to give everyone a "heads up" on what is happening and generate interest.

This meeting will replace the National Indoor Regional Finals for 2010.

The meeting will be held over the weekend Jan 30/31

st 2010 at the Worksop Indoor arena.

On each day (Sat 2wd – Sun 4wd) there will be three Reedy style classes.

Each day will be treated as separate events.

Reedy ‘A’ will consist of F1 drivers (max 40)

Reedy ‘B’ will consist of F2 drivers (max 40)
Reedy ‘C’ will consist of F3/4/5 Drivers (max 40)
No Driver can be ‘downgraded’. Therefore, for example, if more than 40 drivers wish to take part in a class, driver 41 will become Reserve number 1, Driver 42 will become reserve number 2 and so on.
If less than 40 drivers apply for a higher graded class, then drivers may be promoted ‘up’ from the next level down i.e. if only 35 drivers apply for the F1 event, then F2 drivers may be promoted.
2010 Licence Grades will be the criteria to decide upon your class.
The intention is to have six points scoring Races for each class.
In the event that any class is undersubscribed, then that class MAY be reduced to 32.
The entry form for this event will be available shortly, along with details regarding the cost, where to send your entry etc.
Yours sincerely,

Paul Worsley. (BRCA, Off-Road Section Chairman).

This event will replace the indoor finals for 2010. This is an exciting new event planned by the BRCA to keep the national style feel meeting going through the winter!!!
So come on you lot.....who is interested???? Who wants to see this type of event take place??? Who wants to enter???

Is this your first year or have you been racing previous to last year? If so what was your grading before?

The best place to probably check is with your regional rep. If this fails perhaps try the BRCA, but regional rep would be favorite. But either way you can still race, this event is something new to me and I think the BRCA are doing a "GOOD JOB" with coming up with a new event!!!!

I've never been F graded before. So far all I've done is 2 MAM rounds at kiddy.

Big G will be an F5 when you get your BRCA membership. (assuming you haven't already)

I have my BRCA membership yes. I was just wondered if I automatically get F5 or have to race the year before to get anything.

I'll be attending the regionals next year so hopefully I'll upgrade that F5 and if I can attend some nationals :)

Cheers for your help.

I'm certainly up for this, sounds a good idea!

Count me in to! :thumbsup:
