Ive been dreaming this up for the past few months..
wanted to see if it got any response before I put anymore into it.
Ultimate Scale KOH/Ultra style race..sometime in 2014..
at Superlift Orvpark.
Race rig..pit crew..support truck..everything that's KOH turn it into a scale event.
Multiple laps with different routes for each
lap...@1hr a lap.
Pit crew/Support truck assistance..
Driver/pitcrew radio's..
Amb transponder system for accurate time keeping.
*Race Teams will need their own Amb Personal Transponders*
*Teams will be responsible for there own radio's as well*
Race rigs/support truck roles can be swapped around if the Team so chooses.
When/if the race rig breaks down on course he then radio's to his pit crew/support truck for tools/parts needed..location of breakdown..MOVE IT!
The scale Support truck then hauls the parts needed to broken down Team rig.
Support rigs can cut thru course,does not have to follow the layout of course,but when on course you must go in the intended direction of course and race vehicles have the right of way.
The Driver can make minor repairs on course..battery swaps,tighten lug nuts,swap a drive shaft,tighten set screws.
Driver or Pitcrew can make repairs on vehicle on course.
Repairs must be made closest to the spot on course where rig broke down,but not in the way of traffic.
Rigs must have proper lights,just like the KOH/Ultra rigs.
Race rig specs we will follow what U4Rc has laid down.
simple enough..Thanks Jerry!
Rules..
It has to look like something you would see on a 1:1 trail, race, or street rig.
All Classes:
MOA are not allowed. Non-scale race-track style vehicles are not allowed. Battery must be chassis mounted, and hidden in a scale fashion. Electric powered vehicles only. No Comp, short course, cut n shut, or pin tires allowed. A tire must be a scale tire, either a licensed replica, or a non-licensed replica. Rigs not meeting specific class specs will be placed in the fairest class possible at the judge’s discretion.
1.9 Trail:
This class is for 1.9” tire clad vehicles that are box stock thru highly modified. Vehicle must be scale in appearance. Rim diameter must not exceed 1.9”at any point. No short course style rims allowed. Vehicles must have (2) solid axles. Vehicles must have rail style, tube, or twin vertical plate chassis. This class requires the rig to have a scale body like your typical 1.9 “scale”rig or TUFF Truck. Wheelbase must not exceed 13” and track width must not exceed 10”.
1.9 Competitor:
This class is for 1.9” tire clad rigs that are highly modified and resemble full size race vehicles. Vehicle must be scale in appearance for rock-race style racing. This class includes rigs running plastic chassis and/or roll cages. Open to any shaft driven, non-moa axle configuration. Single or double solid axle or independent suspension is allowed. Rim diameter must not exceed 1.9” at any point. Short course style rims are not allowed. Rail style, tub style and tube chassis’ are allowed. Wheelbase must not exceed 13” and track width must not exceed 11”. Rear steering is allowed.
2.2 Competitor:
This class is for 2.2” tire clad vehicles that are box stock thru highly modified. Vehicle must be scale in appearance for rock-race style racing. This class includes rigs running plastic chassis and/or roll cages. Open to any shaft driven, non-moa axle configuration. Single or double solid axle or independent suspension is allowed. Short course style rims are allowed. No Comp, short course, or pin tires allowed. A tire for this class must be a scale tire, either a licensed replica, or a non-licensed replica. It has to look like something you would see on a 1:1 trail, race, or street rig. Wheelbase must not exceed 14.5” and track width must not exceed 13”. Rear steering is allowed.
Trophy 2.2:
This is a builder’s class. This class is for 2.2” tire clad Ultra4 style rigs that are highly modified and highly resemble full size rock race vehicles. This class only includes rigs running full metal roll cages or, a metal upper cage attached to a factory skid plate. Meaning no plastic chassis component allowed except skid plate. You can use a factory skid plate, such as a Wraith, or Wreckluse skid. You could also use the metal portion of an Exo Skid, but not any plastic pieces attached to it. Vehicle must be very scale in appearance. Open to shaft driven, non-moa axle configurations. Single or double solid axle and non-factory independent suspensions (aka hand fab) are allowed. Rim diameter must not exceed 2.2” at any point. Short course style rims are not allowed. Rail style and tube style chassis’ are allowed. Minimum overall chassis height, we are currently researching what this should be, but we came up with 4.5”. Wheelbase must not exceed 14.5” and track width must not exceed 12.5”. Rear steering is allowed. Minimum vehicle weight 8lbs.
Cockpit area must have a driver. (Either Lexan driver insert or actual figurine).
Since our emphasis is on scale vehicles, terrain, and media, we are going to be strict about this driver requirement in 2.2 Trophy. The biggest change for this series is the helmet requirement and the fact that this will be enforced.
So a Team will consist of Race rig and Support truck and 2-3 Teammates.
Would really be awesome if this does happen..
if everyone had/has a trailer to haul there race rig on,getting video of them all pulling in to their pits. :twisted::mrgreen:
Post up if you'd be interested or suggestions.
Just remember im really going for "Scale" in this setup and running and layout.
