Winter Series Event #2

The NSCA Indoor Winter Series is off to a great start!
We had 18 competitors for our first event, let's see if we can do even better this time!

The comp will take place this Saturday Jan 23rd starting at Noon.
It will be at the HobbyTown HobbyPLEX
10020 Scott Circle, Omaha, NE‎ - (402) 498-8888‎

There will be two courses run for each event.
This series will be 2.2 class only.
We will be following the 2010 USRCCA rules.
You can download a copy of them here.

It is only $3 to crawl. Beginners are welcome and encouraged!

You can check on the NSCA Club website or the HobbyPLEX website for more information.

IDK if your in deweys fan club there is a $50 membership fee. And you have to scratch his back if need be. Not to mention working on his truck if it breaks.

Its up to you. But the requirments are too much.

WOW, I think I'll have to pass then . . . . . :D
 
I have updated the link to the rules.
For those who may have missed it, there were some changes implemented today.

These are the most recent changes to the rules:


1.6 - Boundary Marker (10 pts each): Points are given when any part of the vehicle touches a boundary marker. Once a boundry marker is touched the judge then will stop time, and the vehicle is then moved back by the driver to the previously cleared gate with the rear axle aligned to that gate. If the vehicle cannot be aligned to the gate due to course design, the judge will reposition the vehicle to the next stable location after the cleared gate. This location will be used for all drivers. A boundary marker will remain "live" for the entire duration of the attempt on the course. Boundary markers are not required
in the design of a course.

2.3.1 - Vehicle wheelbase is limited to a maximum of 12.5 inches.

6.4 - Wheelbase: is measured from center of axle nut to center of axle nut. The vehicle should be set down on a flat surface by the driver. The front wheel on the side that is being checked, must be pointing straight forward. At that time, the driver will then cycle the suspension through it's complete extension and compression range while the judge measures the vehicle's maximum wheelbase. At any point the vehicle's wheelbase cannot extend beyond the maximum limit of it’s class. All the above procedures must be duplicated on the opposite side. Note: If the vehicles wheelbase is affected by radio control it must be cycled or activated during tech inspection.

Shorter is just fine, you just can't be longer then 12.5".

And Tom, I think it might be a good idea. Some that aspire to compete at a higher level should become familiar with the procedure.
