BRCA East of England Offroad

Welcome to the home of 10th Offroad racing in the East of England. Plenty of people claim that this is the most exciting and fun form of RC racing that there is, and obviously we agree with that. 10th Electric Offroad is one of the oldest forms of RC racing and the EoE has a great tradition of close racing over many years, and for producing some of the best Offroad racers ever.

This region is now in the lucky position of having a great selection of tracks and clubs to choose from as well as many new drivers who have started racing this year and those that are building cars for next year too.

Off road racing caters for both 2WD and 4WD cars and are usually run on either grass or multi-surface tracks with jumps, ramps & tabletops to keep you concentrating - this is real 3D racing. The BRCA EoE Regional series itself caters for both 2WD & 4WD cars on seperate days but extra fun races may be laid on for those of you with just one car. If you are a hardened racer you will find the series has some top flight drivers for you to pit your skills against and these same drivers will gladly help you out if you need it.

2007 looks set to be a great year for Offroad in the region with new tracks and new drivers coming along. The manufacturers also know there is a huge new interest in offroad too with quite a few new cars just released and a few in the pipeline.

While the new cars ARE exciting, one of the best things about this class is the simple fact that driver skill is by far the most important factor and mega horsepower and the latest kit are not needed to get good results. One of the best current 4WD cars has been on the market now for 7 years and one of the regions racers regularly makes A finals with a Schumacher Cat 2000! - If you want to splash out on a new 2WD car one of the most succesful cars out there retails for around £150.

The region caters for drivers of all levels from raw beginners to sponsored superstars. The region is here to support you if you just want to race at your local club every week but it also lays on the BRCA Regional series for those that want to move their game on a little and gain a licence grading - right up to those of you that want to compete at National level.

We are looking forward to seeing you racing in the region soon, there is enough close racing and fun to go around for everyone, so what are you waiting for?
