This class is intended to be an entry level class. It is primarily for new or less experienced racers to get into our sport while having fun and gaining experience before moving up to a faster class. Please remember that these rules are to allow building and racing a safe and fun but inexpensive car. If you feel the need to modify your car or to go faster than these rules allow, please move up to a different class. Think cheap and fun!
