Simple rules I think:
1) That specific model must have been released prior to 1st January 1994
2) You must have fun
3) Re-releases allowed providing they are not a modern buggy with an old body on (EG: Tamiya Holiday Buggy Re-Re is a no no, Tamiya Boomerang Re-Re is a yes yes!)
4) Period upgrades allowed - if it was available when the car was new then you can run it (this includes repro parts)
5) Brushless motors, modern electronics, lipos, modern wheels and tyres are all allowed
6) You must have fun
7) Due to numbers in other classes a round may be postponed should there be too many heats (so bring your modern car too!)
8) 7 rounds, best 5 rounds to count
9) You must have fun

So the dates for this series will be:
14th September
19th October
16th November
21st December
18th January
15th February
15th March

I think that covers everything - have I mentionend that this is all just for fun?!

Just a thought.. I know we have spokena but this before but do you think we should look at having a 'spec' motor?

maybe not for this year but for future years?

Something like this, a 17T brushed motor that Paul could get us all and maybe do us a nice deal on a bulk purchase?

[Balders]

woohoo my bosscat works has a 1993 sticker on the box! I'm in then!

Harris, do you want my box of RC10 bits again?

[Body Paint]
