Could someone email me the Kyosho cup rules...

No real message. I am new to the hobby, the track I race at runs by "The Kyosho Cup Rules" but I don't even know what they are.

If there is something that they don't like they just say "It's against the KCup rules" which is fine but I don't know what those rules are and K doesn't even run a cup anymore...

Maybe our track should make its own rules.

email me, i downloaded a copy prior to gp removing them from their site. the file is 2,296kb though... which is why i can't upload it here and the gallery doesn't accept pdf i think. even zipped it's 2,123kb

I asked arch to send me the rules as well. VERY strict. I took a couple shots of the rules pages (most of the PDF is the available Kyosho option parts). I have attached the 3 pages that I feel are most vital. (arch, feel free to use the pics I attached, if you want me to do this to the entire PDF, let me know).

Here's the latest set of rules that Dorks on Wheels use, they're quite liberal and take the 1 in 10 awesome X-Speed motor out of the equation with the allowable replacement FETs in Racer class as well as the iWaver vs Kyosho stock FET controversy.

-pickles

We have 2 divisions, both are all ages:

Racer class requirements:

1/28th scale Kyosho/iWaver type body
Kyosho or Iwaver chassis
Kyosho or Iwaver esc (Kyosho esc's are permitted to replace 3004 fets with a single layer of aftermarket fets, known as an internal turbo. No other types of turbos are allowed !)
Xspeed armatures only

Outlaw class requirements:

1/28th scale body (some lexans permitted)
Kyosho, Iwaver, aftermarket chassis (proZ)
Any Esc...any turbo... any motor.

If it's not mentioned in either class, it's allowed. (except for razor blades, flamethrowers, rocket launchers, and other extraneous WMZDs)
(Weapons of Mini Z Destruction)
3 wrecks during a race and you are black flagged, call "over" and pick up your car, and go sulk somewhere. Drive sanely, and this will not happen to you ! If there is a major bottleneck crash at the start, we usually have a restart. This will come under tighter scrutiny this season. I (Imxlr8ed) or an appointee of my choice will be the final decision maker for all track decisions. As for the rest, you'll figure it out !

No fightin, cussin, or fussin... I (Imxlr8ed) reserve the right to tear you in half if you get out of hand ! Remember, these races occur on a property that is not yours, so having respect is mandatory.

I need to follow the PN rules at my local track.

Arch, if you want me to do the same to some other PDF's, let me know. It doesnt take much time, and I may be able to write a macro for it (still learning how to code, so the code would take longer than doing it manually).

as you can see from the kyosho rules for the u.s. mini-z cup, there were rules being applied that regulated electronics and this was from kyosho. i'm sure if kyosho took a leap and applied more standard rc rules than many would follow.

to add, the only existing large scale domestic/international racing series the pn regionals all have similar restrictions. as do the young and yet to be proven atomic series.

this is far from being a domestic issue.

i suggest it would likely only take one of these major series' to take the leap and others will follow, if not immediately, than over time.

why does kyosho not revive the domestic mini-z cup series and lets see if they allow ad band and 2.4 in stock class. maybe tim can point them in the right direction?
