Novice Class Rules and Specifications
Lap Time Specifications:
Because this class is meant for beginners or novice level drivers, There will be a high minimum lap time set for this class. This is to encourage drivers, who's skills have improved, to move to a more appropriate class. Driving a lap under the minimum time will mean that crossing does not count. This will be set at the time of the event by race officials. There are no minimum or maximum age limits to this class.
Chassis Specifications:
Any 1/10 or 1/12 Scale On-Road Chassis
No Off-Road vehicles will be permitted
Ride Height must match the chassis that is being used. Examples: Touring cars = 5mm min., 1/12 scale = 3mm min., Mini = No min. This is to protect the carpet racing surface and is not flexible
Motor Specifications:
Any 540 size brushless motors with a wind count of no less than 13.5 turns
Any 540 size Brushed motors with a wind count of no less than 19 turns

Battery Specifications:
Any Hard Case LiPo
Any Ni-Cad or NiMh
For safety reasons, all LiPo Batteries must not exceed a maximum of 8.44v
Tire Specifications:

Body Specifications:
Any body made to fit the chassis it is mounted on.
MOST IMPORTANTLY:
