CLASSIC

 25^th, 26^th, 27^th and 28^th January 2007

DEAR SLOT CAR RACER

Hornsby Slot Cars welcomes you to the 2007 Australia Day Classic Slot Car Race. This years program will cater for 8 classes. We kick off on at 7.00pm Thursday evening with 16D Utes, we expect approx 30 entries for this class so we have devoted the whole evening to this class. The 6.5 sec breakout always provides some of the closest racing you will ever get to experience. The S/16D V8 Flexicars and GTP 10’s will be held Friday. We have scheduled GTP12’s, Wing 12’s and Int.15’s on Saturday, and Sunday is earmarked for G-27 at 10.00 am and G7 scheduled for 5.00pm that evening. Ivan has threatened to wear his best X Rated BBQ apron for a guest appearance as Chef around midday.

We will offer trophies and merchandise for 1^st ,  2^nd and 3^rd place in each class and a Concourse de Elegance trophy will be up for grabs. Once again we look forward to catching up with you and hope you will enjoy the racing.

Regards

Phil, Robert, Ivan, Charles

Marshalling –

·         Drivers will be advised of their marshalling duties by the race director.  Failure to perform required duties will result in a penalty.  Drivers who are unable to marshal due to a disability are required to nominate an acceptable substitute.

Black Flag –

·         The race director will demand the removal from the track of any car which is dragging on the track, interfering with other cars or continually deslotting.  The car may be repaired and returned to the track.  If the problem continues the black flag will be enforced again.

Penalties –

·         If required, the race director will apply penalties for rule infractions.  Penalties may range from warnings to exclusions from the event according to the severity of the offence.

Smoking –

·         In the interests of safety and health there will be no smoking within the raceway.

·         Must contact the track surface before any part of the chassis when car rocked from side to side.

Rear Wheels –

·         Any colour/compound rear wheels may be used.

·         Minimum starting diameter – 0.700”

Bodies –

·         An entrant may only use one body per class.  Air control devices on wing cars may be replaced if damaged during race.

·         All bodies used must be commercially available.

·         Bodies must cover the entire chassis and guide.  No parts other than rear wheels may protrude.

·         Where a particular body or range of bodies is specified they must not be cut above the manufacturers intended cut line.

·         Bodies must be painted to appear opaque with the exception of windows, which must be left clear.  Front wheel arches must also be left clear or cut out so that front wheels are clearly visible.

·         Interiors, where required, must be painted in a minimum of three colours so as to maintain an appearance of realism and be of a correct scale and size to cover the entire inside of the car from front to rear and side to side windows.

·         Maximum front diaplane length – 12.7mm. Diaplanes permitted on and Group 12 GTP/WSC but must not protrude beyond original body work.

Track Clearance and Width –

Gooing –

·         Sedan Classes (Standard Flexikars Gp 10, Gp 12 GTP) – The track will be conditioned by the race director prior to the commencement of qualifying and as deemed necessary between races. No other traction compounds may be applied to the track.  It has been found that the use of natural rubber compound tyres leads to a buildup of rubber on the track, which can make racing conditions most unpredictable.  If this should occur the race director may choose to clean and condition the affected areas between races.

·         Winged Classes (Gp 12, Int15,  Grp 27, Open) – Group 12 is a spraygoo event and the track will be conditioned by the race director prior to the commencement of practice and as deemed necessary for qualifying and racing. For Int15, G27/7, traction compounds may be applied to the track in the designated zones before racing and during lane changes.  Rolling or padding traction compound beyond designated zone in a forward motion is permitted.  Traction compounds may be removed while racing is in progress but only by the driver. Care must be taken not to interfere with cars on other lanes.

Race Procedure

Qualifying –

·         Qualifying will be run in reverse order of entry.  Each entrant will be given a timed run to record their fastest lap which will determine their starting position in the heats.  See class rules for details of time allowed. 16D entries will be seeded into heats.

Format –

·         All entrants will contest a series of consies, heats, quarterfinals, semifinals and final dependant on the number of entries.

·         All races designated as “consies” will be contested over 4 lanes only, running on either the red set ie. red, green, blue, purple or the black set ie., black, yellow, orange, white.  All other races will be contested over 8 lanes.

·         All races will be on a “move up” basis.  The following schedule has been adopted to ensure that a minimum of four drivers will move up from each race.  See class rules for heat and lane change times.

·         1 to 8 entries: Final only

·         9 Entries: One heat and final.  Fastest qualifier into final – top 7 in heat move up.

·         10 to 16 entries: Two semis and final Top 4 in each semi move up.

·         17 to 20 entries: one heat, two semis and final.  Fastest 12 qualifiers into semis – top 4 in heat move up.

·         21 to 24 entries: Two heats two semis and final.  Fastest 8 qualifiers into semis – top 4 in each heat move up.

·         25 to 32 entries: Four quarterfinals, two semis and final.  All entrants start in quarterfinals – top 4 in each move up.

·         33 to 36 entries: One consie, four quarterfinals, two semi and final.  Fastest 28 qualifiers into quarterfinals – top 4 in consie move up.

·         37 to 40 entries: Two consies, four quarter finals, two semis and final.  Fastest 24 qualifiers into quarter finals – top 4 in each consie move up.

·         40+ entries: Fastest 16 qualifiers into quarterfinals.  All other drivers will be seeded into a number of consies with the top 4 lap scorers in each consie moving up to the next stage in the race schedule.

·         Lane choice will be determined by either qualifying position or position from previous heat.

Lap Counter –

·         The “Johnson Racing Systems” computer system (Version 4.0) will be used for all events.  This system incorporates the following unique features which drivers must be aware of.

·         Rider Detection – The system will implement an automatic “track call” if it detects a lap time shorter than a pre-programmed time delay and the lap is not counted.  This time delay is usually set to 1/10t^h of a second shorter than the fastest qualifier.  Cars which cross the lap counter on the wrong lane causing such a “track call’ will be replaced on the correct lane immediately before the lap counter, thereby eliminating any gained or lost laps.  Drivers should also be aware that the system treats each bracket as a continuation of the preceding bracket.  Therefore if a car is moved forward on the track during a lane change it will trigger a short lap “track call” when it crosses the lap counter.  If this should happen then the offending car will not be credited with the lap and will restart from where if stopped.  This is effectively a one lap penalty for cheating on lane changes.

·         Time Factor – At the end of the last bracket for each race all cars must continue until they cross the lap counter.  As each car crosses the lap counter the power of their lane is shut off by the computer.  This eliminates the need to take footage and means that all positions on the computer are correct at the end of racing.  Each car is given a time factor which is the time from when the bracket expired to when the car crossed the lap counter (accurate to 1,000^th of a second).  Drivers must be aware that the race does not finish until they cross the lap counter or a maximum of 10 seconds expires.

Track Calls –

·         Track Calls will be initiated only in the following circumstances – Automatic rider track call; Cars off in main straight, bank or bridge, Unmarshallable car; A marshal has too many cars off to cope with;  Marshal not in position; Track fault.

·         It should be noted that the intention of the race director will be to maintain fair racing conditions.
