Hi Gordon,
if I remember correctly, there was a rule change for HS class where a 1.0 mm ground clearance limit was imposed. This would have reduced the downforce which many cars had at that time as, in some cases, tyres were 'trued' to the limit to maximize downforce. This rule change was accompanied freeing up of tyre choice which meant that one could now run urethane or silicone tyres on HS cars. I believe that the use of urethane or silicone tyres would have restored to a significant degree the cornering ability lost by the reduced downforce. As I have previously stated, my suggestion for this class would be to leave the cars as they are now but stipulating stock tyres which, however, may be trued, with the 1.0 mm. ground clearance limit. Cars which run a higher ground clearance (say 1.5 mm or more) can be allowed free tyres. I think that this would be very easy to monitor and enforce.
Having said the above however, I think your last suggested proposals for this class (your post of 24/9/14) with the MM limits would provide the fairest method and the closest racing. As I also mentioned previously, I would be prepared to go along with these regulations if implemented.

Re: Proposed 2015 Classes
Gordon,
Tyres make a difference, but not that significant.
By having the gearing stock these cars will be alot slower and more in line with the times you are trying to achieve.
Any tyre. 1mm rule in effect.
Standard magnet. Any standard position.
Stock motor.

Re: Proposed 2015 Classes
Arden, looking at your suggestions, there will be no changes to the HS regs from what they are now. How can no changes make any car from any manufacturer be competitive and how can no changes slow the lap times?
Re: Proposed 2015 Classes
Gordon,
I agree with you. If you try to get a Holden competitive you will have to modify the chassis or increase downforce etc.
If I want to be competitive I have to choose the best car possible. Other than that I will have to modify to be competitive.
I really understand your plight, however it is just not possible with the different variations of cars availiable. You may end up with only escort on the grid, and that will be competitive. You can't try to please or include the different manufacturers and have them all running 6secs, its just not possible. You will have to make changes to some cars to get them to 6 secs and then what...... .
The reason for stock is to reduce policing, include everyone being stock, they will then know which cars performs best by the best times for your chart, the time will be realistic and we will all learn to drive better, not the red carpet boys LOL.
The times for HS will be around 6.5secs. Vintage should increase to around 6 secs and you have GS5 at around 5.5 secs.
I understand what you want, and i believe we all want the same thing competitive racing, but the different manufacturers does not allow this. Scaley dont like Pioneer and pioneer dont like Slot it. I wish there was an easy fix, but there really isn't.
Anyway leave this for until you get better. Get well soon.

Re: Proposed 2015 Classes
How about this for HS: Cars stock but no magnets, tyres free ?

Re: Proposed 2015 Classes
Steve, if the guys think sorting a car to a downforce limit takes too much time, none will go for this because sorting for no magnets at all is much, much tougher and more time consuming.
Re: Proposed 2015 Classes
Guys,
Following are my revised 2015 class change proposals. There will be one additional class added, a variation of the VS class which will alternate with our regular VS class listed below. This will be for six different VS cars from various manufacturers which will all be supplied and prepared by me. They will be configured to run to different downforce limits based on their weight. More on this later.

FRC CLASSES
Cars are subject to pre or post-race tech inspection and those not complying are ineligible for competition or subject to disqualification.
Amendments for the 2015 racing season are indicated in blue.

FRC CLASSES
Cars are subject to pre or post-race tech inspection and those not complying are ineligible for competition or subject to disqualification.
Amendments for the 2015 racing season are indicated in blue.
General (all classes):
- Cars must have four wheels with tyres and a body.
- Car body must be a 1/32 scale model of an actual car, past or present. Body may not be modified in a way which significantly lightens it or renders it indistinguishable from original car.
- A driver figure comprising at least a head must be present in the driver position of the car unless the specific class allows the windows to be tinted so as not to reveal the cockpit. Open cockpit cars require a driver and a "shelf"; closed cars require at least a driver head, front and rear glass and a cover over the mechanicals. (With the exception of cars where the windows are tinted.)
- All tyres must be of a silicone, rubber, rubber-like or urethane construction. No o-ring or sponge tires allowed.
- All tyres must be run DRY, with no traction compounds or treatments added. Cleaner residue or softening treatments must have been removed before placing the car on the track. Any car that leaves a residue on the track surface shall be immediately disqualified and removed from the race.
- Non-magnetic weight may be added to cars.
- Weights or magnets added to the underside of the chassis must be securely affixed so as to not be dislodged during a race. They must also be completely covered by plastic tape.
- The body mounting screws may be loosened. If they are, they MUST BE COVERED with tape to prevent debris on the track.
- Any braid may be used.
- Where a minimum ground clearance is specified, this minimum only applies to areas under any installed magnets.
- Where a maximum downforce limit is specified, this will be checked using the FRC-based Magnet Marshal. When placed on the Magnet Marshal only the car's guide flag and tyres may make contact with the Magnet Marshal. This is a requirement for accurate downforce readings.
- Magnet Marshal readings up to 105% of the stipulated maximum are considered legal. Remember, the maximum allowed is 100% with a leeway of up to 105%. Any car over 105% will be automatically demoted to last place.
- Any modification not specifically listed for each class is prohibited.
- Where the word "Free" is used for any category below, it must still comply with these "General" regulations.
- For classes where any form of motor restriction applies, motor make and model must be identifiable so as to ascertain its legibility for the class. (Eg: Leave original label/markings on motor)
- Scratch-Built (home-built) cars:
These are one-off cars built by individuals using 1/32 scale bodies usually from plastic model kits from companies like Revell, Airfix, etc. These may use chassis and other components from slot car manufacturers and can include "generic chassis" like the Slot.It HRS and HRS2 and the MRRC Sebring chassis or chassis from a specific slot car. Chassis may also be completely scratch-built and unique.
The most important aspect of running scratch-built cars is that the bodies and mechanical/electrical components must comply with the regulations for the class they are intended. Mechanical/electrical components include:
- Motor
- Magnet(s)
- Tyres
- Gears
- SSD Chip
