RULES

Non-Magnet - All slot car magnets must be removed (except for motor magnets of course).

Weight - 10 gram weight limit on outside bottom of chassis, no weight limit on inside of slot car. Weight cannot be visible from driver station or from above while car is on track.

Tires - Tires must be inside wheel wells or within spirit of 1:1 scale of the car it represents. All four wheels on track, the front tires must roll when pushed.

Basic Race Format - Track host will set a specific start time that will be adhered to. If you are late and you haven't made prior arrangements you will not run that race. There will be a minimum of 45 minutes practice time and practice time will end 15 minutes before the start of the race at which time all cars participating in the first race will be teched. Cars participating in the 2nd race will be teched prior to that race. There is no practice prior to the 2nd race.

Tech Inspection - All slot cars impounded in the tech paddock before and after each race. Drivers will deliver their cars to tech with the bodies removed for inspection. The cars, once teched, will remain in impound till the beginning of the race. Once the race is over drivers will return their cars back into impound. The Tech Director will release the cars back to the drivers at his discretion.

Main Event - Club decides 2 main races. 3 minute heats each (minimum).

Support Race - Race host decides what the support race will be.

Marshalls - At sanctioned RMSCC events everybody must rotate marshalling. When your heat is done you immediately rotate into the marshall position (unless you have a car issue that needs to be addressed between heats, then it is your responsibility to find a replacement marshall - then that issue must be brought to the attention of the Tech Director for his approval). Example: 4 lane track has four heats that means you marshall at least four heats. Details coordinated by race host and co-chairs.
