Rules changes

  • Further restrictions on entry to Euro B's were confirmed as : No finalist at  a European championship from TC, 10th IC, 8th IC, 8th Offroad, 10th Offroad and Large Scale as well as the 30 A rated drivers can enter into the Euro B's

  • The gap between cars in Le-Mans starts was increased to 3 Meters (we never use this)

  • There will be no Euro A's when a worlds is in Europe.

  • Cars from both Semi finals will be released at the same time

General Discussion

There was a lot of discussions around making the GP's more valuable; I do have some ideas about splitting the 7 GP's into two regions but nothing confirmed at present. Lots of discussion about the qualifying and taking 5 minutes, we agreed that we should leave the fuel tank size as it is.

We were told of two new rules for the worlds:

  • Three motors will be marked but you can change the internals as often as you like. So effectively there is no restriction (makes sense - of course not!)

  • Track will be open from the preceding Thursday for worlds. So increasing the amount of free practice.
