Super Slow Rat
(aka LA-Fox Race)

SSR is commonly flown in conjunction with Fox Race. Event organizers may wish to combine the events for a single prize, or provide a separate set of awards for each. It is common that both events will have their own final race.

The rules for this event are the same as the Fox Race rules with the following exceptions:

  1. Engine must be any stock plain bearing engine with maximum displacement of .25 cu. in. See the current Fox Race rules for further specifics on the meaning of "stock".

    The NORVEL BIGMIG 25 is NOT allowed.

  2. Fuel system: There are no restrictions on venturis or needle valves other than venturis must not be of the swing-weight type. If an RC carburetor is fitted, it must be wired to maintain a fixed opening. No inboard fuel tanks. All other Fox Race rules apply as well.

  3. Props: Propellers are to be wood or plastic, commercially available. The only rework permitted is balancing. This excludes all hand-layup props of carbon or glass, but includes all injection molded props
