At CMCC we race 1/10 scale touring cars, either electric or nitro. There is more information on the different classes we run further down. There is normally a race meeting every other Sunday (check the race calendar)

We encourage everyone to race, and our club has a diverse age (and skill!) range. Drivers can get competitive but we try to make sure everyone is treated fairly and gets a good race. Depending on entries, there are often two or three groups of each class which allows everyone to race with others their ability in the finals.

We will normally run 3 qualifying heats and 1 or 2 finals for each class depending on numbers. Race meetings start at around 10.00am on a Sunday although this varies during the year so check on the race calendar or homepage for up to date information.

Car Classes

At club meetings we plan to run heats for:

  • 13.5T and 17.5T electric touring cars
  • F1
  • Bikes
  • Minis

subject to there being enough entries to make up a heat which can then marshal the following heat. The same situation applies to 1:10 scale nitro, i.e. we would run a heat if there were sufficient entries.

Electric touring cars, F1, 1:10 nitro and bikes will be to BRCA rules. For more information on particular classes, visit the BRCA website and click to the relevant class section.
