      Marty,

      No suspension kits allowed, and no nail polish either. 🙂

      Please consider the 917 rules:

          Rules have been updated to allow motors and bushings to be glued. Driver’s feet can be removed.

            Define irregular.

             

            Shawn,

                FYI: Inspection will require body OFF.

                I will not disqualify any competitor for irregular cars but each irregularity will cost 5 laps. If it is not explicitly allowed in the rules – don’t mess with it.

                Ary.

                  Changing rules to allow 15.8 to 16.5mm wheels.

                  Have not made my mind regarding tires but I’m leaning towards not allowing Slot.it’s zero grips — too wide.

                  Ary.

                    Wheels rules need to be checked. Self reminder.

                      Guide may not project beyond the body when aligned for straight, as viewed from directly above. Exception to the rule applies to the guide keel (only).

                      The rule is to prevent guides being mounted beyond the body but still allowing guides, such as Scaleauto’s, where the keel go past the forward most point of the base,  to be used.

                        As per voting during the club’s February 2017 meeting, the sidecar series has been cancelled and will be replaced by Touring Cars (BTCC) based on Scalextric.

                        The BRM Sidecar rules page will not be listed in the 2017 race rules menu but will stay published on the club’s website for reference. The page can be accessed via this link: http://austinslotcarclub.com/2017-racing-series/2017-brm-sidecars/.

                                  Suggest removing this:

                                  • Wings must always be in place during green flag conditions. If wing becomes detached from a car, the wing must be refitted to the car under green flag conditions. The race will not stop for a wing incident. If the driver fails to replace the wing before the end of the heat, a 10 lap penalty will be imposed and laps will not count onwards until the wing is re-placed. If the wing becomes detached in the last 5 seconds of the race (Equivalent to the last lap) no penalty will be imposed.

                                  No “wings” on 917’s.
