That type or range will then be deleted enabling the current lists to be maintained at a manageable size. [It is not intended that previously homologated motors cease to be eligible when they are removed from the lists – event scrutineers within the UK should not turn away competitors using old motors just because they are no longer shown on the current homologation lists].
Can we please start reading the rule books, they normally contain the answers
While we are reading the rules.
1/10th Off-Road handbook states:
25. BATTERIES
25.1 Cars will be driven by a maximum of six rechargeable cells, which cannot be replaced after a race has started.
25.2 The description, specification and types of rechargeable batteries approved for use in Off-Road Sanctioned events can be found in the section entitled ‘BRCA Electric Board’ (EB).
Lipo breaks both them rules, hence cannot be used at sanctioned events, hence cannot be used at regionals, as looking at this rule:
4.1 Off-Road Sanctioned events include the National Championship Series,
Regional Championship Series, Indoor Finals, Junior & Veterans’ Championship, British Regional Championship (BRC) and the Inter-Regional F3/F4/F5 Championship. It is possible that further specific events could be sanctioned by the committee.
Regionals are a sanctioned event.
