Qualification and Main Races
Qualification races are 4-6 minutes.
Main Event races are 6-30 minutes.
Qualification and Main Event races may change due to unforeseen events or situations (classes, available time, or the number of competitors).

Conduct
Unsportsmanlike conduct is any action or language that may be regarded as abusive to a spectator or another racer. It is not allowed before, after, or during a race.
Unsportsmanlike conduct may result in loss of points or disqualification or other penalties at the discretion of track officials.
Cars cannot be pushed across the finish line.
Drivers are not to drive against the flow of a race, block faster drivers, or attempt to purposely wreck another driver.
Shortcutting the track is not allowed. If a driver cuts the track, he/she must pull aside and allow the competitor immediately behind him/her to pass. Failure to do so will result in penalties (10 seconds, a lap per offense, or qualifier.)

Marshals
Every competitor is expected to marshal immediately after his/her race or designate a substitute and immediately notify race officials of the change.
Penalty for not marshalling is one lap off of best qualifier.
Cars that can no longer continue in a race will be removed from the track if they are in the path of other cars. Otherwise, they are to be removed after the race.
Turn Marshals will not repair cars during a race.
Turn Marshals must remain on the track until each race has been officially completed.

Radio
To avoid possible frequency conflicts, racers should consider having a second frequency available to compete. DSM/Spektrum-type radios will be the exception.
Only a race official may authorize a frequency change.
Radio impound will be immediately after a qualification/main event ends. The exception to this is that a competitor will use the same radio for immediate use.

Practice
Practice will terminate one (1) hour prior to the start of the first qualifier.
All practice will be monitored by a race official.

Maintenance
Clean your area
Remove foreign objects from racing surface
Help with track set-up or removal
Assist race director with one race (qualifier or main)
Report unsafe conditions or the improper operating of RC equipment
