The Danes are working on bringing a second team to the race - more in a couple of days, when the domestics have been ironed out by the team.

White Mouse is coming in full force :car:

Hold it guys, I'm working on it.
Can't believe this....its 3 weeks since my announced retirement and I'm still writing rules. :comp1:
Problem is we got a nice mix of teams and cars on the entry list, and some of those cars have already been build according to different rules.
There's Matchbox and Smokey fighting for LMS Championship positions, there's a bunch of GT's build for the IMCA FIA GT races and we might even get 1 or 2 teams from the Euregio SSFS (GT's build to DTSW rules).
I would like everybody to be able to run their cars with as minimal changes as possible, but I also want to balance things a bit so the race remains fair and to some extend equal.

So here's the general Plan:

Hand out motors: Pro Slot Euro MKI run at 14,7 volt. (Sealed, marked and to be soldered in the Parc fermé)
Fixed gearing for all the cars 9 x 44. (saves practice time as nobody has to test,test and test to find the right ratio)
Hand out rear wheels for all cars : Scaleauto Procomp 3 27,5 x 16 (saves preparation time as nobody has to sand their tyres)
Lights manditory for all cars during night section (approx 1/3rd of the race)
make sure that they are bright enough and that the fronts are white or yellow (please dont make me look at blue, green or orange headlights in my last race ).
Prototypes (and that inlcudes the CLR) run according to LMS rules and dimensions, meaning:
Total weight 205gr, bodyweight 65gr, Max Spur 82 mm, Front wheels min 26 x 8 mm.
GT's (FIA, ALMS, ELMS) run according to IMCA rules and dimensions, meaning:
Total weight 200gr, bodyweight 60gr, Max Spur 83 mm, Front wheels min 26 x 8 mm.
However!!! in the FIA GT races we've had so far the Maserati and the Saleen clearly had an advantage over the other GT's (as they are much lower) So for these cars we will ask them to run with 5gr extra handicap weight!!!!

Now in an ideal world this should be enough to go racing.......but then again ...... I'll work them out in detail so you guys can try to F***K me one last time :laugh:
