LMP / GT12 Saturday January 19th 2013 - NEW LMP Motor Rules!!!
Flat track road racing at Buena Park Raceway

The Third Saturday this month, is a THIS WEEKEND!

Flat track road racing at Buena Park Raceway

This event is held on the THIRD Saturday of each month.

Raceway opens at 8:00 AM.

1/24 FK GT-LMP tech at 9:30 AM first race at 9:45 AM.
GT12 will start one hour after the end of the 1/24 FK GT-LMP race. (12:00??)


1/24 FK GT-LMP any stamped steel Flexi chassis/any GT or LMP body.

(USRA 2011 body list for reference)

Allowable motors will include Falcon 7, Trinity Evil 9 & Fast One's Demon motors. This will allow current racers to use their Falcons and also allow for a new motor choice with the expectation that the new motors will be longer lasting with better brakes (if the discussion is accurate!)

GT12 same rules as USRA - no minimum clearance - ISRA LMP bodies or USRA GT12 bodies (no GTP bodies) (USRA 2011 body list for reference)



Buena Park Raceway
6161 Lincoln Ave
Buena Park, CA 90620
(714) 827-9979

So much DRAMA for such small cars....

Have fun!

I see you use the 2011 USRA rules for bodies, but as far as chassis and motor setups do you use the current USRA or ISRA rules, IE: bearings in motors and axles, front wheels and other items??

Could you direct me to what you use please?

We use current 2012 USRA rules for GT 12 chassis and motor rules with the 2011 USRA body list of any open cockpit LMP bodies listed there....or any current LMP body with the approved USRA rear spoiler. No GTP bodies.

 

LMP Falcon class includes coupe GT bodies along with open LMP bodies. No GTP bodies.
