Reece's idea of one combined class for racing but winners & season points for all 3 classes is a good one.
Think about it. More racers together means closer competition & better participation. You can still be the Club winner, but in the race be battling it out with some Sport and Pro guys in your heat as well.
unfortunately the way the car classes are structured we can't easily combine different classes in 1 series, I already discussed that with the developers. At least we have combined rankings...

I just have a crazy idea:
"VRC Master Serie"
8 races, 6 counting
4x On-Road, 4x Off-Road
8 different car categories (all Modified)
8 different tracks
But not sure if the VRC Serie mode can manage that?

For 1:10 electric Touring car my wish list would be:
Outdoor:
Amstetten
Oslo
Osaka 1
Osaka 2
Kissimmee short
Kissimmee long
Indoor:
MB Models
VRC Carpet 6
VRC Carpet 7
The Osaka 1 track is nearly unused for racing!

We will stick with 3 racer classes, if you look at the Worlds results this is absolutely justified. I feel racing in 3 different classes gives everyone a reasonable chance to make the A-Main.
RH: That's fair :)
I think most of us below the top level, still hit the (All) link just to see where we are.
Spreading out the Worlds events and carefully sharing the other events will make it easier to fill up the grids.
As ever, we still have to encourage more people to get online and race. Great videos from the World's by the way.

I completely understand the reason for this. For me the Worlds is a one off in the year and should be one racer class to decide the best racer in the class. Agree it doesn't need to be in December but are peoples racing calendar less packed in December? I know mine is.

Definitely have to disagree with you about Halifax, great track in Mod TC, really tricky to get right
No problem, Reece. It was my first impression but maybe I don't favourize tracks like that. Probably a whole lot of more fun with foam tires but what do I know. Cheers!

For 1:10 electric TC mod I would like to see Tokyo SPL 1 in the race calendar if possible?
