When will the final list be confirmed and will you put the ranking people have entered themselves in at?

[Chequered Flag Racing]

it's looking as thought I won't make this event

Videos
hope someone can take the time out between their heats do some video's from the event and post on YT, only better than the ones I did last year

search for PETIT RC RACE "Europe Tour" on YT to remind yourselves of how it was

I know this has been asked before (and not really answered!), but what are the rules on Lipos at the Petit 2010?

I know it's not connected to the BRCA, etc but the Petit rules on cells mentions that they must comply with the 2009 EFRA list (that is the same as the BRCA list from what I can make out)... May be it's been lost in translation but it's not clear to me

Therefore, we have to use BRCA 2009 approved Lipos?

£50 entry fees, 100 mile round trip - don't want to get there to find out that I won't be able to run because of my new Lipos....

I'm sure Lipos such as the Trakpower Dark Series will be 2010 approved but that list isn't published until April...

If BRCA approved then it should be fine as they state ifmar and efra but brca is also applicable as we are racing in the uk, even if it isnt mentioned in the rules.

Cheers guys

Petit Rule book:

"Battery: Listed in the EFRA list -> NICAD / NIMH UP TO 7.2V and Lypo will be allowed
using additional lead to reach the legal weight in all three classes,"

Can only assume that means the EFRA (or BRCA) Lipo list.

Hopefully sorted some off the list anyway.

does this mean trakpower dark saddles will be allowed then?

[Kifogrande]

When I asked if i needed to buy new batteries he said petit is a friendly race and I can use any lipo....

Andy because its you no, but anyone else dont see a problem. If its BRCA, EFRA, IFMAR approved then game on.

On the Historic Dockyard site there is a cinema and a number of restaurants. I am sure there is a Pizza Hut but cannot remember much more I am afriad. If you have time, maybe Google Chatham Historic Dockyard and see what you can find.

[B&H Racing]

Yeah its on the Dickens World Complex, just a few mins walk away.

There is a pizza hut, mexican, fish and chips, nando etc

Is any one running a SC truck in the truck class?

I hope so, seeing one of those flying through the air would be cool.

[MHeadling]

A mate of mine has been asking about weight limits for the Petit, it's on the website but thought I'd post it here

2wd is 1474g

4wd is 1588g

Truck is 1770g

[mikeyscott]

Max or min weight?
