Is there still a list of classes and rules for indoor racing somewhere. I assume there are no changes this year but maybe someone can enlighten me if there are.

That will be fun! Can't wait to run 12th again! 7.5 with a bit of boost for me unless I can find a cheap 4.5 or 5.5!?

12th for me but not sure if 5.5 or 10.5 with 1s rotor. All I know is I don't want any boost. 5.5 at the end if last winter was good but want to try out this 1s rotor.

im only joking a 3.5 would be dangerous!
