ACTIVE CLASSES

The active class list represents classes that have raced in the most recent indoor season. Dirt Runners R/C Car Club provides the opportunity to race all classes listed below, but cannot control the number of entries into any class. Any classes that falls short of 5 entries may be ran at the race directors discretion, that decision will be made based on total entries and heat count on race day.

Furthermore, entrants in a class with less than 5 entries may move into a similar class of competition. The entrant may request to move to a different class but must be agreed to by the drivers of said class. The entrant may also decide to withdrawal from competition and receive a refund.
