In regards to the Slot.it GT and Policar F1 classes, do you or anyone have an idea for era or years raced?

What about a spec motor instead of the NC-1 or equivalent for the "classics"? I was thinking any brand name, plastic, one piece solid flat chassis (no articulating or floating components) would be similar in performance as long as the motor and rear tire width were spec'd out?

I have been away from the Odd Thursday racing for awhile so I am not up to speed as far as what's currently going on. The last I saw the Policar F1 cars seemed to be the cream of the class so I guess they are one example I thought was starting to dominate. Maybe that is no longer true. I am really looking to YOU guys to tell me what changes need to be made to car classes based on YOUR observations and feelings. I thought this might be a good time for me to get what you guys have been discussing for sometime now down on paper. As soon as the construction on my shop gets underway and the weather clears up I know I am going to be booked up!

Al, I've never thought there could be too many classes. Just because we have a lot of classes designated and detailed out with specific rules, it doesn't mean we have to actively race them. If you look at the NASTE rules you can find classes we have not actively raced for years, such as the NASTE Modifieds and the early Flexi type classes. The nice thing is the rules are detailed for those classes so they could be raced whenever the desire is there.

So would it be a better option to just create new classes to cover the newer modifications and better cars presently being raced?

MERRY CHRISTMAS Y'All !

This info is located under Race Rules in this Forum ;

Class 1 - Classic Sports Car
This class is open to classic and vintage sports cars, RTR and scratchbuilt are acceptable. Examples of cars that are legal for this class are: Revell King Cobra and Porsche 904, Ninco Classics (i.e. Porsche 356, Jaguar XK120, Corvette, Jaguar "D" Type),  old Revell 1/32 slot cars (i.e. Ferrari GTO & '65 Corvette), Carrera "D" Jag & '67 Corvette, Monogram Ferrari 275P, MRRC King Cobra & Porsche 904. This short list is not inclusive of all the possible cars, there are other brands that would fit this class with slight narrowing of the rear tires. Motors are limited to those developing no more than 18,000 RPM - refer to the Slot Car Motor List link on this site.  This class is comprised of two divisions (10/21/2015).
Division I: Elligible car's rear tire contact patch must be 7mm or less. The tire width set is that of Revell Classic cars, specifically the King Cobra and Porsche 904. Tires slightly wider than 7mm can be narrowed to meet the rule. Chassis construction must be rigid with no separate articulating pieces such as hinged side pans, motor pods, or suspension type front axle mounts.
Division II: Elligible cars' rear tire contact patch must be 8mm or less. Chassis construction may be multipiece/articulating.
Races will be run at 10 volts.

Excellent job guys, you represented us well!
