However, these little toys are not cheap and I'm sure you wouldn't like your's being taken out lap after lap by another driver would you? |

How about trying to get a bunch of cheap slower electrics and selling them for cost to new drivers. Combined with some nice EOS prizes for most improved drivers, fair play rewards, most consistent driver in lower class etc. Carrot over stick kind of thing.
I can imagine the difficulties you'd having though. It only takes a few bad apples and pretty soon everyones driving standards go south when the red mist descends. |

Ban the marshals from running, 10 seconds to marshal a crashed car will focus the mind.

However, I really like the 'Do not run' policy for marshalling, might put that one to the club 's committee to see what they think - like you said, if we marshal slowly that might help focus drivers minds, though I do think the carrot idea I've come up with might help - I'll keep you posted with the results when the Championship begins in 2 weeks... |

Scott im going to pull you up here. as my post 14 on this topic!! firstly the BRCA 12th section did not miss a trick, the BRCA do NOT make the rules, the racers present at the egm make them after discussion and votes. the BRCA then enforce them. there IS also a slower class and as post 14 production cup is now 17.5, a slower motor class, while super cup remain 13.5. you also need to be aware that the 17.5 became a class due to a club introducing it at their club, which proved popular and grew. something your club can do the ONLY part of the rules your club need to follow from the brca hand book is general rules, any class you race can have rules set by the club, not the brca.

Mr. Christopher beat me to it. Forgive my frustration when people say things without checking their facts first...
BRCA 12th Section members have grasped this nettle and sorted it - ProductionCup is now the same chassis as SuperCup but with a 17.5 motor. This was in response to the recommendation from people who race at clubs to give a slower car, not a cheaper car. The point raised was that it was speed that was the requirement, not having a chassis with very tight restrictions that didn't handle that well - having ProductionCup as a kit-standard class with no leeway on parts and no diff. This has been answered by having ProductionCup as a kit chassis with mods and a diff allowed. This means clubs can adopt this class and drivers wanting to progress can g to SuperCup by just changing their motor. As Mark says, clubs can also pick and choose the BRCA Construction rules why want to adopt and then add their own variations. I hope that answers the point. Your drivers can all run in ProductionCup with a change of motor which you could phase in as I suggested in an earlier post. HTH |
