I will be looking to suggest some rule changes within our classes program to have better alignment with the ROK Cup as well to ensure that we are keeping the class a fun and a cost effective means of racing. Once our Race Director (Fred) has had an opportunity to review them I'll proposes them to the class and we can have a vote. I will post the proposed changes here at least 1 week prior to scheduling the vote to ensure we can have some healthy discussions prior. If there is something you feel that you would like to propose please feel free to reach out directly.
For any new members that are interested in the class or existing, please feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the platform as my intention is to help grow the class and help reduce the learning curve to the engine. I've been keeping the VLR FAQ fairly to to date and hope to have information flowing directly from ROK to ensure we are aware of any engine updates that may come up.

Feb 15th - Proposed changes to be posted no later than this date. This will allow adequate time for healthy discussion.
