Topic: PASER Can Am Race April 25, 2026 - UPDATE!

For the past few years PASER has not been a very active group, or probably more appropriately, a very active sanctioning body. The rules as listed on the NASTE website were taken directly from old PASER Rule books, or pages there of. For two reasons I took the liberty to edit the rules governing the bodies for the Can Am Class; 1.the original Can Am class had split and gone in different directions leaving the PASER version of the class abandoned. 2. Retro (IRRA) racing chassis have become readily available. With the IRRA style chassis available for purchase, I felt it was reasonable to have the rules reflect the original PASER standard of inline motored chassis classes.

I have recently had some conversations about the upcoming race with various interested racers. Some had questions about racing the old Can Am cars they had raced before. With these conversations in mind, I returned the rules regarding bodies for the Can Am Class to the original verbiage:

Body Group: Only Can Am cars that actually raced in the Can Am series, using Lexan Bodies to Scale with a minimum thickness of .010”.

However, I added this to cover races after the February 21st race: (After the Can Am race on April 25, 2026 the minimum body thickness of .030” will be observed requiring the use of Team Bluegroove bodies).

My hope is this will allow racers to participate with any Can Am cars they may have built for PASER in the past, without the need to purchase a new body before April 25th. After the April 25th race the body rule for .030" Team Bluegroove bodies will go into effect. I think the Team Bluegroove bodies will better support PASER's Hardbody Racing theme than the traditional thin Lexan bodies. I apologize for any confusion or difficulties this may have created.   =======Bill
