Click on the blue box (Old Time / Classic Rules) below to print, download, or both the rules for OTS and Classic Stunt. They are the latest and greatest. These are the rules we use and have used at VSC in Tucson.

ARF's, ARC's, Purchased, or Borrowed models can compete in all events, but, models entered in Classic will receive zero (0) for appearance points.

If you have attended VSC during the past three years, you will be receiving in the mail (by the first week in October, 2007) the VSC XX flyer, your own personal copy so to speak. It acts as a reminder and gets you thinking about VSC 20. Again pre-registration is required so please read the instructions on the flyer when it comes out carefully. I highly recommend that you place the flyer in plain sight (like the fridge) so you do not forget about sending in the registration portion of the flyer.

A place for your EMail address is provided for you to fill in if you have one. Jim Hoffman will use it to send you conformation that your entry fees have been received.

All contestants entering VSC 20 (from now on) are required to sign the entry form where indicated. Please do not forget to do this.
