General rules

Lap counting - Will be done with our Corespeedway lap counter

General conduct - We expect all drivers to treat each other with courtesy and respect. Try to race clean and don't crash or block other drivers intentionally. Try to keep emotions in check. This is all for fun, no reason to get upset and be verbally or otherwise abusive. Anybody who is abusive may be suspended or removed from the club.

Attendance - We don't have any minimum participation rules, come once every few months or every race, it's okay. However, since we do have a lot of racing to do in one night please show up on time, or we may have to start without you. If we do start without you, don't take it personal, you can join in the fun at whatever point you show up.

Marshaling - You are expected to marshal your own car. Another driver may be nice and help you out or there may even be non-drivers available to marshal, but don't expect it. If there are others available to marshal please don't yell at them if they aren't moving as fast as you'd like them to.

Body Modifications

- LM-size wheels and tires are NOT ALLOWED. See Wheel Rim and Tire rules for clarification.
- Bodies may be functionally modified with minimal effect external appearance. The following non-comprehensive list of body modifications are allowed:
- Excessive external cutting of the body is NOT ALLOWED for weight reduction purposes. The rear bumper may be removed up to 20mm from the ground.
- Wheel wells may be cut forward or backward to accommodate different wheelbase chassis.
- Wheel wells may be cut or chamfered internally for tire clearance.
- Lower portions of the body may be cut for ground clearance in front, sides or rear.
- Body material may be shaved or thinned internally for weight reduction. Technical inspection officials reserve the right to disqualify any modified body deemed to be too fragile due to excessive material removal.
- Body panels may be reinforced or strengthened internally without affecting external appearance.
- Kyosho windshield and windows must be installed, but can be modified by cutting unexposed internal areas.
- Kyosho headlight covers must be installed, but headlight buckets may be removed or omitted. In the event that a headlight cover is lost, the hole may be covered with a decal.
- Taillights and taillight covers may be removed or omitted.
- Small body parts such as mirrors, canards, exhausts may be omitted or removed to prevent racing damage and debris on track.

The above list is non-comprehensive. The purpose and spirit of the rules is to allow functional performance modifications to the body while preserving the scale appearance and realism. The technical inspector has final authority in the judgment of body modification legality.
