About Junior Group 10

As indicated by its name, this is the N.E.C.C.'s entry-level class. This class is open to racers 13 years old or under at the September race (may turn 14 during the season).

This class uses a sealed handout motor, which is provided by the series. Motors are handed out the day of the race, upon signup.

While certainly no slouch in the speed department, the Junior and Senior Group 10 classes are the two 'slowest' classes run during an N.E.C.C. event, and are well-suited to people who want to try running the series for the first time.
