Firstly you'll need BRCA membership. As the above post pick the region closest to you, you'll start off as an F5 having never raced before and would enter as many rounds as possible as the scoring may be taken as your best four results out of six rounds. At the end of this if you finish in the top 20% (I think) you'll earn an F2 rating and so on down to F5, you'll only be able to achieve an F1 by attending nationals. You can't mix scoring rounds from different regionals never can you mix 2 and 4wd scores. Check your batteries and motor are on the approved list (speed controllers and servos are exempt) if you don't have one would suggest you buy a transponder as some events may have one to hire but wouldn't bank on it. Finally I'd strip down clean and rebuild and check all the electrics. On the day get there as early as possible and enjoy the day.
