2016 Reedy 1/12 Race of Champions Announced
September 18, 2015 -- The Reedy Race of Champions started out many years ago as Mike Reedy's vision to showcase the world’s best drivers in a format unlike any other ever used in RC racing. It has since grown to be one of the most anticipated and prestigious RC races in the world.
The Touring Car and Off-Road Race of Champions events are revered across the globe, and now Reedy along with the British Radio Car Association are proud to announce that the inaugural Reedy International 1/12 Race of Champions will take place at theCentre:MK in Milton Keynes, UK January 15-17, 2016.
Entries open September 20th exclusively via www.reedyrace.com. Due to time constraints and to maintain the world-class nature of the event, total entries are capped at 70 for the Open class.
To allow everyone an opportunity to be a part of the 2016 Reedy 1/12 Race of Champions, a draw for the Open class will be conducted on October 19th, with those chosen securing a place in the event. Entry fees are not collected until after the draw for the selected Open class entries. One tin of tire additive and a souvenir T-shirt is included with each confirmed and paid entry.
Factory sponsored drivers (those whose travel arrangements are paid for by their sponsor and/or are paid a salary to race) are not eligible to compete in the Open class.
Timetable for Entries:
Sunday, September 20 - Open and Invitational entries open
Saturday, October 17 - Open entries close
Sunday, October 18 - Open lottery drawing, winners notified
Sunday, November 29 - Deadline for Open and Invitational payments. ALL NOTIFIED RACERS MUST PAY THEIR ENTRY BY THIS TIME OR NAMES WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE ENTRY LIST AND YOUR SPOT FORFEITED AND GIVEN TO DRIVERS ON THE WAITING LIST.
The format and schedule for the event remains similar to that of other Reedy ROC Events for the Invitational class, but the format for the Open class will be different for this event. Open class entrants will also get the opportunity to race in a unique heads-up format, with the Open class entrants being split into two categories based on the times set during practice.
