6mm guide depth maximum
is this the depth of the guide flag (out of the packet / trimmed ) without braid ?
or 6mm from underside of braid to bottom of guide ?
and after my latest American proxy track clearance episode , can we be clear on what exactly will be an infringement please Graham ( gears . motor . adjustable axle screws etc )
front wheels / tyres , touching track or not ?
so we will have 4x proxy rally events through out the year with 3x classes in each event ?
think thats it

Hi Kev,
just caught up with your posting, depth of guide flag is without braids - i will clarify that in the rules. The Rally tracks often use Classic Scalextric/SCX shallow track guide rail.
The Event Clearance rule is specifically to avoid beeching and excessive motor magnatraction advantage on plastic tracks. So I will be checking with a plastic rod guage that both the motor and chassis is is clear by 1.5mm of the track surface.
Couple of questions for clarity?
CBdesign wheels say a steel wheel, 5 spoke or Staffs wheels say a minilite are illegal?
will I be competing against myself with a 911S and a Hillman Imp?
Or would the Imp be Event 1 the Porsche Event 3?
CB Design might be right on the issue of wheel insert design, I am no expert. But I will be satisfied with 4 matching wheel inserts which look right. So no penalties for having the incorrect wheel insert. Our team of "concourse" judges might of course mark you down on that issue in regards to the "Best Presented Car" award
Hillman Imp is a Event 1 car
Porsche 911S an Event 3 car
But there are no METAL chassis allowed on this event, as we expect to be using "proper" Rally track type circuits for most of the Rounds and with the relative low track clearance, there could be a high possibility of the chassis shorting out the track or someones controller.
