FRC will be open for practice, testing and racing from 7:30 PM this Thursday (5th October) for our 2017 Group B classes - Rally Car (RC), Slot.It Challenge (SC), Formula 1 (F1). We'll run special IROC races for newcomers if we have at least two new drivers present.
We plan to start at 8:30PM sharp. Here's the usual schedule:
- Free practice and testing up to 8:30 PM
- 8:30 PM - Technical Inspection (excluding IROC classes).
- Qualifying followed by racing. Drivers not ready when called to grid will be replaced by any standby drivers who are ready.
- Post-race Technical Inspection (if required)
- After racing - Packing up and liming/old talk (but not too late!).
- Rally Car - If visible, interior must have both driver and navigator figures (heads minimum); no traction magnets; "Magnet-effect" motors are not allowed.
- Slot.It Challenge - Group C Slot.It cars only; single standard Slot.It "non-race" magnet (the one with the grooves); Slot.It tyres.
- Formula 1 - Scalextric and Carrera F1 cars only; standard silver-can 18,000 RPM FF motor.
Don't forget to bring along some refreshments.
