DUNDROD TT
SPIRIT OF THE CLASS
For hard bodied cars representing those that raced in the Tourist Trophy races at Dundrod from 1950 to 1955.
We will also allow cars that raced at Le Mans or other period liveries BUT they must be a car that ran at Dundrod (e.g. you may run a Jaguar D Type in a 1955 Le Mans livery as the D Type raced at Dundrod). Le Mans cars that did not also run at Dundrod will not be permitted.
The competition will cater in the main for scratch built cars but will allow some stock RTR cars that represent cars of this period.
The intention is that the models should accurately represent the cars of the period so please respect this and stick to the spirit of this class.
If you have any doubts about whether your car complies with the spirit of the class, please check with the scrutineers (Dave, Eric or Tim) before you spend either money or time building!
