I guess batteries are about the same rules as the euros? And motors? We're driving a CS brushless motor with a sintered rotor.
What are the rules about practise before the race weekend? As I see you only get 2x2 mins of practise on the race day :-)
Thanks,

Hi Wouter,
For tyres its yellow schumacher mini spikes in the dry and Green in the wet. In 2wd you may want staggers in the dry if you have too much grip. For inserts i use the Edit purples everywhere, you just need something fairly soft to help it through the bumps. I'me sure there will be some for sale at the track.
The list of approved cells motors etc should be the same/similar to the Efra list. Have a look on

The last club meeting is this wednesday evening as the track has to be closed for 1 week prior to the event. Unfortunatley 2 x 3 minutes is the only practice you will get. There are a lot of drivers coming here that will only have raced once before so you won't be the only ones to have to learn quick.
Hope you make it throught the reserve list!
