Default Iconic RC / A1 RC - Revival Meeting 2014 - 27.07.14




Iconic RC / A1 RC - Revival Meeting 2014 - 27.07.14



Classic off-road revival meeting bringing vintage cars back to the racing track. A friendly day's racing with the main emphasis on fun rather than competition. A great excuse to blow the cob-webs off those classic cars and use them for their designed purpose.

The event is designed for racers and amateur drivers, to relive those memories of racing back in the golden age of electric off-road racing or to try racing cars for the first time.

Proceeds from the event will mainly go to our chosen charity Breast Cancer Care with a small percentage to go to the hosting club to cover costs.

The event will feature the following.

Features:

Classic Racing
Race of Champions
Wheelie Race
Concourse de elegance
RC Auto jumble
Raffle/tombola
So if you want to race or just come along and show off your Shelf queens then this is the event for you!

The last couple of minutes of this video showcase the fantastic A1 track. Perfect for vintage. The 1988 Tamiya Terra Scorcher was very much at home there.

I have a couple of stupid questions I've not raced in a long time 20+ years so one would I class as a "pro" if so I've got my work cut out and two do you need a racing licence like you had to BITD for insurance.

Hi,

You do not need BRCA for this event. (Racing License)

If you haven't raced for 20 years it's really up to you what you consider your ability to be. AM really is for complete novices though so I would think you are probably PRO.

Thanks, John

Just to clarify.

BRCA is not required for racing newcomers (A1 are using the 3 race rule). Now is your chance to renew if your BRCA has lapsed.

If you don't have one then the club has hand out ones for the meeting that you can collect from race control before each heat
They will be these ones so you will need a hole in the body to mount them somewhere with a clip
