Body Modifications:

Where allowed in class, bodies may be functionally modified with minimal effect on external appearance.

• The following non-comprehensive list of body modifications are allowed:

  • 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.

  • Body panels may be reinforced or strengthened internally without affecting external appearance.

  • Windshield and windows must be installed but can be modified by cutting unexposed internal areas as needed.

  • Taillights and taillight covers may be removed or omitted.

  • Small body parts such as mirrors, canards, exhausts may be omitted or removed.

• These rules are intended to allow functional performance modifications to the body while preserving scale appearance and realism.

• If you have modified your body and have questions regarding the legality of the modifications, please submit the body in question for review prior to racing qualification or main event round to prevent any inadvertent disqualifications.

• A body must always be on a vehicle. If a body is damaged during a round, it may be repaired and the race resumed, however, please allow time for any glue to dry so as not to damage the track.

False Start:

• A false start is defined by any movement of a vehicle between the time the start is announced and the starting signal.

• Penalties: If one or more vehicles false start, the grid will be re-formed. Repeated violations may result in disqualification from the round.

Rules Disputes:

• If there is a rules dispute between drivers, it must be brought to the attention of shop personnel. We will do our best to resolve any issue which may arise.

• If a racer notices an illegal item on another racer's car, please report it to us so the car can be tech inspected.

• Repeated violations of the above rules will result in us pointing at you repeatedly. No seriously though, please stick to the rules as best as possible.

These rules are designed to ensure a fair and enjoyable racing experience for all participants at Silverdale Hobbies. Please review and adhere to these guidelines during the competition. If any adjustments or clarifications are needed, participants are encouraged to speak with John or Michelle.
