- Applicability.All rules from the unified
Control Line Racing Rules apply to this event, except as modified, appended, or
specified herein.
- Model Specifications.
- Airplanes must be a model of an actual Goodyear racer or Formula I racer and must be of the
profile fuselage type. The engine must not be cowled in.
- The model must have a minimum
consistent scale of one and onehalf (1 1/2) inches to the foot (1/8 scale). All
scales must be within a plus or minus 5% for the top and side profile views,
with the exception of the stabilizer area and the fuselage width. (This allows
for profile type models). Models which appear to comply with this tolerance upon
rudimentary inspection need not be further checked except in case of dispute.
- Stab area may be increased up to 25% of the
wing area, but must maintain scale configuration.
- The landing gear must be of the same configuration as the actual aircraft, e.g.
two separated struts, and must exit from the scale location but may be longer,
higher, or swept forward. (wheel pants are optional).
- Cowls or "apple cheeks" as used on the full-size aircraft are
recommended but not required.
- The model must have a scale-like
paint scheme not necessarily the same color, but representative of full-scale
racers.
- The scale canopy outline may be clear or painted a contrasting color.
- Model must have racing numbers on the fuselage and on the upper left wing.
- The contestant's AMA number should appear as part of the scale-like license
number on the upper right wing. It may be preceded by "N" at the
contestant's option.
- The following major components of the
engine must have been designed and produced by the original manufacturer for
the specific engine in quantities of at least 1,000: the complete crankcase
including front and rear ends and the upper and lower portions, if detachable
or split, the crankshaft, cylinder
('sleeve.)
and piston. The crankshaft shall be supported by plain
sleeve bearings only, with one exception. See note one.
- Only one
fuel tank is allowed containing both fuel and lubricant, with a maximum
capacity of one ounce. The outside diameter of the pickup, vent, and fill tubes
of the tank shall not be over 1/8 inch.
- No hot gloves will be allowed.

management.
