I believe the FK puppy dog is legal Per IRRA rules. I'm assuming sealed with pro slot seal, but Dale would have to confirm...

 

I think everyone is using the hawk motor though,especially on a track that doesn't require much breaks.

The PS FK is not legal in CanAm, GTC, F1, or Stock Car.

It is only legal for now in CanAm Plus.

Just a reminder. The tread width for coupe and Can Am is 3.125 . For the F-1 class it is 3.25.

Also the clearance for F-1 is .040 minimum using a .790 tire.

Minimum weight for the Coupe class is 110 grams and 100 grams for Can Am and F-1.

Please note the new motor rules as noted on the IRRA main page. I think most of us are using these motors anyway.

Hip you can until the end of the year in F1 and CanAm. But not at RetroPalooza, Sano or Fall Brawl.
