Class Definition:
The difference between Pro and Pro Lite classes are driver ability. The general rules are the same. We cannot determine for you which class you belong in (Pro vs. Pro-Lite).   It is honestly up to you to decide your level of ability.  Pro classes are very competitive with very capable drivers.  You are best served to self-assess your ability to drive and compete.

** NOTE ** – Any driver with manufacturer or factory sponsorships (of any percentage) – Must run Pro classes.

There will be Awards for Top 3 in A Mains, and Winners of  lower Mains!
Top Qualifier Awards

We are planning a special 5 minute mini event, to run Axial EXO’s on the track. This may get sponsored by Axial if we get guys signed up and it looks like we will have a decent field. We are looking for 8-10 EXO racers. The entry fee is FREE, and you have a chance to win something, with or without Axial’s involvement!

Other Notes:

Corner Marshals will NOT be allowed to repair vehicles!  Disabled vehicles will be placed in the infield, out of the way – No passing the vehicle over the track!

You MUST remain on the drivers stand for the entirety of the race. This allows drivers to focus on the race and not be distracted by people walking behind them.

NO use of Reverse!
