Some of the 2017 RULE BOOK that RUDE BOYZ RC Club Follows:
This rulebook is intended to standardize scale off road RC competitions that are held at various locations throughout the world.
The intention is for all clubs/events to use these rules as written; however, they may be modified on a local basis. These rules are written to outline the basis for building vehicles and running courses. Anyone attempting to circumvent the spirit of the rules, as determined by the Event Officials, will be subject to rejection from the event.
General Vehicle Details
You are encouraged to go above and beyond to make your truck as scale as possible.
Vehicles accessories must resemble 1:1. Event Officials have full discretion to determine if a vehicle is accepted and how scale points are scored.
Tire size will be determined by advertised manufacturer specs (tires without available specs will be measured off the truck as mounted on the wheel laid flat).
•Tire modification:
Class-1 Street: No external tire modification is allowed.
Class-2 Trail: Tire lugs may be removed, siped, grooved and/or trimmed.
Class-3 Modified: Tire modifications are permitted, as long as the tire is no larger than 5.75" in diameter measured off the vehicle laying on its side, and all tire parts are from a legal scale tire.
•You must run a rail chassis (for example: Bruiser/Mountaineer, SCX-10, Reign RC K2-3S, 3L, 4, 5, MFM, Trail,
CR-01, UTE, etc...). No TVP (twin vertical plate) chassis or frame rail extensions on a TVP. Tub chassis are allowed, but chassis must be covered by the body and follow all other scale rules per class guidelines. An example of a tub chassis vehicle is CC-01, DF01, Twin Hammers, etc.
Multi axle vehicles allowed in all classes and may use more than one front steering axle (front axles are considered any axles forward of the centerline of the skid), rear steer only allowed in modified class, C3.
Rear Steering (RS) or dig is allowed in modified class only, C3.
No "Motor On Axle" (MOA) of any kind. All motors, transmissions, and other electronics (other than steering servos) must be chassis or frame mounted. Your axles can be driven by multiple transmissions or transfer case and a minimum of two drive shafts (except CC-01, TA-02, etc). No separate throttle control of drive shafts or axles.
There are no wheel size distinctions. For example, you can run a 1.55, 1.9, 2.0 or 2.2 rim in any class. Wheels larger than 2.2 are not allowed in any class and no short course style wheels with split diameters.
Spare tires must be within 1/4" diameter of your drive tires to receive points.
No comp style knuckle weights of any kind.
Any functional recovery tools you wish to use during your run, you must carry it on your rig at all times. IE tow strap, pull pal, and sand ladders.
Winching can only be performed off of natural objects (i.e. trees, rocks, etc...), other vehicles, or stakes supplied by the course builder. Winching off of a person such as their shoe or hand is not allowed.
All vehicles must have the motor, transmission, and electronics covered and hidden when viewed from the top and sides. Batteries must be chassis mounted and should be hidden from view.
Courses will be tough and made to push the scale vehicle's limits. This is to encourage competitors to improve their rigs from one event to another.
Winches are HIGHLY recommended!!!!! Expect to use a winch.
Water proofing is HIGHLY recommended!!!!! Expect your rig to get wet.
