-All drivers must bring their car to tech BEFORE AND AFTER your race.
-Drivers using Lipos can and will be teched before start of heat.
-Lipos may not be over 8.44 Volts, or 10* above ambient temperature. Anyone caught overcharging or excessively over heating your batteries will lose their opportunity to qualify in that given race.
-Drivers caught overcharging/over warming Lipos will be given the 3 strikes opportunity. The first strike - you lose your heat. The 2nd strike (and yes, it can be months after your first strike) - you will be packing up and leaving for the day. 3rd Stike and your gone for the season. We do not need any Lipo fires in the Dungeon.
-All drivers must take their car and radio to the tech table and go directly to track to marshal the next race. If you fail to marshal, you will lose your best run.
-All Brushless 1/10 Motors must be sensored.
-All cars must be 2wd and rear wheel driven.
-Any traction compound (such as those by Trinity, RC4Less, Putnam Propulsion, etc), Marine Grease, Dr. Trannys Assembly Goo, etc, is allowed.
-No reverse is allowed during racing! We understand that some of you have ESC's that have reverse. If possible, please lock it out.
-No driving backwards around the track. We have seen it happen a few times in practice, which resulted in cars being broken. You will be warned once, and only once.
-All cars must have 4 wheel independent suspension. No Straight axle/Pan cars allowed!
-No practice or hot-laps in between each heat. That time is for the racers in the next race. If circumstances require a couple laps in between a heat, you will be allowed to if the race director gives you the OK. This does not mean open practice between every heat. It means 1 or 2 laps to make sure everything is working, then back to the pit until your race.

We are also implementing a 70 Lap rule for Small Block EDMs. If you are consistently running 70 laps or more, you're bumping up.


Entry fee will be $10. Racers may run up to 2 classes (so its $10 if you run 2 classes, or $10 if you run 1). Racers may run unlimited classes for $15. However, drivers in Big Block may not run in Small Block EDM, and vice versa.
