 Good Morning

We will be using a different  General format for the Slotting Club Proxy Series in 2023

I have changed the 4 "Class" Era Category's to 4 "Event" Era Category's.

This is to allow me to designate the cars into Classes as Below

Class A - Standard RTR Car (Scalex, SCX, Ninco, Fly, Policar) No modifications allowed apart from braids, guides and tyres.
Class B - Modified Cars - any Class A Car which has been modified in any way in addition to the allowances made in Class A. Scratch build cars will also be allowed into this class, but no Class C modified cars (cars with Class C body shell or Chassis)
Class C - Pro RTR or modified Class C cars  (Team Slot, Avant, SRC, NSR, MSC, Scaleauto, Slot it, or Powerslot) 

The Proxy Series will therefore contain  "4 Events" into which you will be allowed to enter 2 of them entering either a Class A, B or C car (depending on which Class is permitted in each event), but only one car in any Event.

Each Event will have its Event winner which could be from any of the Car Classes permitted, and each of the car Classes would qualify for an award for  Class fastest Car in an Event (unless it is the Event winner of course).

The "Best Team" award will go to the combined Placings of both cars at the end of the Series.

 Fastest lap points can be used to determine the eventual Event winner should there be a tie for the "Event winners position" or the "Best Team" at the end of the Series.

Best Presented Car "George Turner Award" can be voted on by the entrants/hosts, the cars nominated by the RoadRace Administrator (me)

As we are running two main events, I will make a award at the end of next year for " Slotting Car Club Winner 23" for the combined results ( Event, Fastest Laps, Best Presented).

The Series Fees
I am hoping (like the government) that inflation might stabilize  next year or maybe not, so I would like to think that we could carry over the £15 charge per Series into next year, but it is mostly out of my hands and I don't propose to subsidise these events out of my own pocket more than I do now , neither do I expect to make any " excessive pocket money" out of it either. This year inter host costs are around £11 per transfer depending on if it is a direct door to door or not, and return postage costs are £3.50 per entrant Nationally. In addition I do like to award Medals for each Series which cost around £40 currently, and I am spending more now on packaging as I value the cars which are entered and trying the best to ensure they get from place to place undamaged. 
So if you do the sums, there ain't much left over if at all if you get only 10 entrants per series, if you get more the probability of making a few bob improves, but of course we limit the number of entrants to 20 max (or 40 cars). So whilst we get 15 or more entrants, running theses Proxy series covers all my costs at this moment in time.
