Rules and Information

General information and rules

We are going to be observing the general 2011-2012 ROAR rules on the National Indoor Series events. If you are unaware of these rules or updates please visit the ROAR website. We will continue to use a visual technical inspection as the race series builds in popularity. Below are noteworthy rules specific to the Indoor National Series for quick reference.

In the 17.5 stock classes, house rules will be adopted regarding boost settings. For each event where no speed control boost is allowed, a representative from the track will tech for boost as they typically do for their local races. If you are looking to bump-up during the weekend or plan on finishing in the top 3 you will want to be utilizing a legal combination.
    

Stock Power Rules

The Stock Buggy, Truck and Short Course classes will be using 17.5t motors. This should provide everyone with easy access to the current standard stock brushless motor for off-road.  We will be using house rules when it comes to boost vs. no boost and it will be decided by the host track and director.   At events where NO boost is allowed be prepared for a small random check at these events.   Please check the host track rules ahead of time to make sure you have the required setup. Adjustable timing motors are allowed.

Short Course Class Rules

The Pro 2 Stock SCT class will allow changes to the radio, receiver, body and tires and aftermarket hop-ups. Any combination of stock SCT RTR motor and speed controls from the available vehicles are allowed or the use of 17.5 brushless motors and speed control equipment. Body changes are allowed, as long as the body appears similar to a Short Course type truck. All 3.0 x 2.2 SCT tires are legal for the stock class.

The Open Pro 2 class is intended for the more experienced driver and is open to all manufacturer SCT trucks. All 3.0” x 2.2” SCT tires are legal for the open SCT classes.
