RULES PAGE

1/32 SCALE

 

Want to know what you can do to your car?  Here are the rules:

 

Box Stock:

Car must be run as it came from the original packaging.  Replacement parts can only be the same as what originally came with the car.  The following modifications are allowed to correct manufacturing defects:

-        sanding tires for roundness, tires with tread pattern may NOT have the pattern removed.  Pattern must remain across full tire.   Max sanding for roundness is .010 (THIS IS NOT NEW) off original size. 

-        adding spacers to rear axle to reduce excess lateral movement of axle/gear/wheel assembly

-        gluing of original interior or exterior body parts to restore original condition or position.

-        Gluing of motor shaft bushings or wheel bushings

-        Wheel wells may be cut or sanded only if original stock tires in original position bind against wheel wells

-        Guide can be shaved if track depth is too shallow, any brand of 1/32 guide flag may be used on any car

-        Painting and/or decals may be applied to cars

-        Cars with multiple magnet position must have magnet in original position unless specified otherwise.

-        Carrera and Monogram magnets are considered adjustable and magnet may be place in any position allowed by sliding it forward or backwards within the restraints of the magnet mount.  (magnet must remain parallel to the track)

-        If an additional magnet comes with the car but is not installed, such as with the Scalextric Sport and some Slot It cars it can not be used in box stock.

-        All other Scalextric sport upgrades are considered box stock

-        Tires or wheels may not stick out beyond the body when viewed from above. In the case of open wheeled vehicles, wheels and tires may not be moved from the stock position.

Limited Super Stock:

            Same as Super stock but stock rims must be retained.

Super Stock:

-        Super tires or Indy Grips allowed on rear only

-        After market wheels may be used.

-        Wheel wells can be enlarged to accommodate tires,  tires or wheels may not stick out beyond the body when viewed from above.  In the case of open wheeled vehicles, replacement wheels and tires may not be any wider than stock configuration. 

-Carrera super stock- may remove wiring to switch (not switch) and not current limiting resistors. 

In summary, if it doesn’t say you can do it, YOU CAN”T!  No aftermarket motors, armatures or magnets are allowed in box stock or super stock, EVER!  You may not glue in magnets, you may glue in stock bushings. Chassis that have been ground, sanded, cut or excessively glued are not stock and may not be used in stock classes.  You may not change position of stock parts (wheels, axles, bushings, magnets, etc in stock classes. All of the above will be allowed as spelled out in Modified and scratch built classes as explained for those races.
