Platform Rules Update

We’ve really only been running three different builder classes in the last couple of seasons.

I’ve tried to simplify the rules for each of the major “builder” classes we run, and I’ve removed other car class rules that may have been confusing or conflicting.

For the time being, the following classes can be considered “active” racing classes, and their rules have been revised:

I’m not going to go over the specific changes here. The main purpose of the changes is to make sure everyone is clear on the platform rules and that we keep things competitive, but as low-cost and simple as possible.

Please review each class carefully and configure your stable of cars accordingly. I don’t think anyone recently racing at Stewart Raceway violates any of these revised rules, but please carefully review them at your earliest convenience to be sure.

Of course, we can add any new class to “active” status. I propose adding at least one of the Jag Hobbies platforms to the mix. The NC-2, RS-6, or the PR-5 come to mind.

Please feel free to comment, make suggestions, or ask questions.

2025 50/50 Series, Round 4 Video Coverage Posted on Rumble

Race #2 Podium: GP Designs bags the top step!

Videos of all three races have been posted on our Rumble channel.

Your favorite Race Director got all four races on video, and I edited them down as much as I could. Just fast-forward through any pauses in the racing action.

We STILL need a better camera crew in our video production department. If anyone would like to volunteer to manage the video operations, I’ll show you what’s involved. You ensure it is set up and working and monitor things throughout the race day.

Okay, shut up and drive!

 

 

 

 

2025 50/50 Series, Round 3 Video Coverage

Videos of all three races have been posted on our Rumble channel.

Unfortunately, Race 1 and 2 have no background audio, and Race 3 has no audio at all. The good news is that both cameras captured video, so there are views from both turn four and turn two.

New Prototype Paper Bodies


The NAS Truck needs a bit more work, but expect to test drive soon. Need to get it a little less boxy looking.

The Winged Modified body is close to being available for use after a couple of design changes.
