About GTP

GTP is the fastest class raced in the N.E.C.C., and is traditionally the last class run on raceday. This is the only class in this series that allows a 3/32" rear axle and a Super 16D 'built' motor. The GTP class is open to anyone.

GTP Rules

Rules specific to the GTP class are broken down into categories and listed below for convenience.
