This is the only video I’ve seen that has made any real sense of explaining the comp rules. Thanks for the helpful info cause after watching this I feel more confident that I understand what the real deal is a bit more. 👍👍👍
Some of the most beautiful rigs I have witnessed in action . Talent goes a LONG way in this video let alone discussing of the rules of scale rc crawling
I've been going out to many comps and running into a lot of great builders and drivers. It still amazes me how talented some of them were. It's awesome to be in the hobby!
very interesting to see the differences to european class definitions I wittnessed so far. Especially how in some regards SORRCA strictly defines the tube requirements for a truggy, but In europe C1 does not allow the trie to portrude from the fenders, basically you can only drive what is considered Street legal in C1..and they always want a a license plate that has to be from the drivers home region. I see positives in all version!
Cleared up all kinds of questions I had about some differences between the two classes. Been looking for this for some time now. Thx a ton for doing this video.
1. Are there restrictions on motor size and how many you have? 2. Is a solid Axel required? 3. Any restrictine on batteries or components. 4. Max and min ride hight? 5. Max length and width? 6. Is there a restriction on finder width? 7. Weight restriction? 8. How are you allowed to use winches?
Thank you very much for the Vid... Next project of mine is a C2 rig and i was wishing me Vid like that and you made at perfect at the right Time 👍🏻🤘🏻 ! Thanks a lot because od you i know the rules clear 🤙🏻 ! Best regards from Germany Hannes
@@slopppy75 I already share it but most guys in Germany want to build Scale Rigs... Thats not really my Style... I would love to have C2 Comps in Germany but most Events are Scale Events ... Do you also have a Insta Acount ? Best regards Hannes
I don't have instagram. You can always start a class 1 or even class 0 competition. There is class 0 in SORRCA LIGHT rules and it's more strict than class 1. Super scale guys love class 0
Great video Just wondering the video show that class 2 trucks with a cage need rear shock hoops attached to the cage. Where does the Gmade BOM fit in with the cantilever rear end ?
Great. I am just concerned about using my proline Ford bronco body that does not fit a stock axial scx10 frame. Can I modify the frame or find a shorter frame
The segmemt abought chassis. I have a custom carbon chassis 15 inch long rails.. resembles a few of the pro style chassis I seen in vid. Is their a class 2 rule for a custom 2 rail chassis ...its 15inch long but shock points made in to chassis an its low center gravity skid
I just got my first rc truck. It's the easy rc 1/18 glacier square body. I'm deciding on getting into rc crawling and competition. I removed my rear bumper for more clearance. Is that against class 1 rules?.
I am interested in class 2 … question about wheel base … is there a set wheel base for c2 I’m under the impression that it is 12.5” ? I do understand the bumper and chassis combined must be 3” longer than the wheel base .
Great job on the video mate...🙂🙂🙂 do you have restrictions on electronic on c1 c2 and c3? And gearing ratio or 1st and 2nd speed on the transmission and dig... thanks mate sorry just new on comp build
There is no restriction on gear ratio or electronics used in any class. DIG is only on class 3. Let me know if there is specific parts you want to use that could raise a question
Cool vid! And I do have a question. For windshields. The TRX4 uses a sticker. Would that be considered a windshield or does it have to be see through (for class 1)?
Hi to all. One question. Where would you categorize a car like the vaterra twin hammers. It is also a crawler, but the chassis don’t have rails. About the body, it can be custom made to fit C1 or C2, but the chassis... Also it is front independant suspension and rear solid axle.
Sorrca states “Tub chassis are allowed, but chassis must be covered by the body and follow all other scale rules per class guidelines. An example of a tub chassis vehicle is CC-01, DF01, Twin Hammers, etc.” I think you can run in any classes as long as you meet all the other requirements
is there an in between? class 1.5, minimum front bumper and tires up to 4.73? i think it would be an interesting class. since you would still require class 1 specs such as front windshield and width and a few class 2 contingences' like tire size and front bumper.
@@slopppy75 thank you man. Sadly, we just started to have championships here in my country and the rules are just totally different and ridiculous. All my trucks got disqualified for having a brushless sensored system. All the other rules are totally wrong. Not just for crawling as all other races have wrong rules. For example, I've seen 1/8 trucks racing with 1/10 trucks. Short Course trucks racing with buggies and druggies. Monster trucks also race with other categories. Now all this and the still have a rule against brushless motors for crawling. Not going to enter any championship until they evolve.
evoxer87 class0 is not official but the crawl space Colorado has C0 rules laid out. Basically, hard body only, no trimming, max 4.0” tires and higher scale point cap are the notable differences.
I think I know the answer but it doesn't really say definitively anywhere... can you cut the chassis to shorten it at all in class 1? It says full length but then also says must be as long as wheelbase.
Shots are from various locations that I traveled in past 2 years. Most of the pictures are from the last scale nationals at San Ysidro, New mexico. The green and red truck in the thumbnail were from Denver, Colorado. Other videos are from Apple Valley, California.
Awesome video. Really helped out a lot but I do have a question. I have an element rc Enduro Sendero that I swapped out the rear shocks with cantilever shocks, but I have no rear mounts for the body anymore as they don't fit with the cantilever setup. Currently I just use a pair of zip ties to keep the body rear on with the original body mounts on the front. Would this break any rules or is it still good. I haven't had time to try out at a competition yet so I want to make sure I'm good or if I need to re modify it.
@@slopppy75 thak you, i'm currently planning on making 6x6 out of my truck and i was worried it would close my possibility to participate in regulated event 👍🏻
By tire size definition the TRX4 Defender would be considered a class 2 truck at stock. Is that correct? 117mm stock tire is 4.6 inches, video claims 4.19 before moving into class 2. Am i understanding this correctly?
Looks like TVP( twin vertical plate ) chassis. TVP chassis are not legal in all 3 sorrca classes. Redcat Everest 10 is also another popular tvp chassis - not legal in sorrca comp.
Any axle restrictions in class 1 or 2? What classes do portals , ie: Trx4 &Gen8 fit into? I know of some groups that bump your truck up 1 class on account of portals. Ie: build class 2 Trx4, & it gets bumped up to class 3 on account of portals. What are SORRCA rules on portals? Thx in advance for any info. 🤙
there is no restriction on portals in any class. You can run in c1 c2 and c3. The biggest drawback of portals are less steering angle and elevated center of gravity

Thanks brother
Great visual explanation of the rules, much easier to comprehend when seeing actual rigs and the various modifications.
I'm glad it worked out! thanks for the kind words.
Thanks, learned more about these crawler classes in 11 min's than I have in years!!
Best way to break it all down by showing it on the typical vehicles in each class
Thank you.
The visual aid plus reading the rules really help thank you💯👊
Thank you, this was exactly what I was looking for! Very clearly explained and showcased.

Súper knowledgeable getting ready for some first crawler comps and it helped tremendously and stopped me frm looking like a fool right off the bat
Amazing video......I am new to RC and know nothing about the different classes, so this helps a lot.....thanks
Thanks for watching
Perfect! Clarifies the rules very nicely. Added a link to your video in 2 RC Crawler FB groups I am in! Thank You!
Eric Shanahan thank you for sharing
Absolutely! Great info, especially for newer guys to the hobby like me.
WOW! Great job on the Vid man! EXACTLY what I have been looking for and more!

your c1 sounds a lot like C0 here. Not official class but it might be in the future
9 seconds in… and I already know I’m going to learn something today. Just like a JB video! 😬👍🏻
Very good info, I did not know all these specifications between class 1 and class 2, thank you 👍
Thank you!
@@slopppy75 😊👍
Thank you for the informative video- I am complete noob for crawlers ❤
Good vidio friend
Very good adventure
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this, a good explanation of the rules between class 1 & class 2.
An excellent video CRAWLER75, so much to learn, super trucks, big thanks 👍

oo i see now class 1 most for realistic scale, class 2 more for custom to be push the limit of crawler ability, thanks for explanation
Excellent video ! I had to learn that my class2 needs some modification.
Learned a few things that I could not figure out from the written rules! Thanks! Great video and helpful resource! :)?
Thank you! I’m glad to hear that
Dude. This is gold.
Thank you!
OMG THANK YOU FOR THE funky MUSIC!

Awesome video very informative and helpful Thks for making and sharing
I leaned a lot while making the video as well. Thanks for the comment
Thank you so much! I want to build a class 2 but didn't know what needed to be on it. Awesome video, the visuals helped SO much.
ThNm you very much. Very informative
This is great, can you cover scale points too?
Thank you! Good video! ⚡️
Very nice video and super sensitive driving. I like the TRX4 chassis very much :)
Thank you. Trx4 is very good truck and my comp trucks run on trx4 portal axles. I love them
@@slopppy75 perfect mixture :)
Great video
Just wondering the video show that class 2 trucks with a cage need rear shock hoops attached to the cage. Where does the Gmade BOM fit in with the cantilever rear end ?
I want to build a C2 rig from the SCX10 Pro Kit and would like to do a half cab... what are the rules around the bed area for C2?
Great. I am just concerned about using my proline Ford bronco body that does not fit a stock axial scx10 frame. Can I modify the frame or find a shorter frame

Nice ... Thank you very much for sharing
For C1 on metal chassis rails can we use carbon shock hoops for the rear? Great video! Thanks
You can use any material for shock hoops.
I am interested in class 2 … question about wheel base … is there a set wheel base for c2 I’m under the impression that it is 12.5” ? I do understand the bumper and chassis combined must be 3” longer than the wheel base .
Excellent video! Thank you for clarifying so well.
I’m glad to hear that. Thank you
Does a powerwagon body without fenders already count as a pinched front end
Great job on the video mate...🙂🙂🙂 do you have restrictions on electronic on c1 c2 and c3? And gearing ratio or 1st and 2nd speed on the transmission and dig... thanks mate sorry just new on comp build
There is no restriction on gear ratio or electronics used in any class. DIG is only on class 3. Let me know if there is specific parts you want to use that could raise a question

For windshields. The TRX4 uses a sticker. Would that be considered a windshield or does it have to be see through (for class 1)?
Question I have element enduro sendero with proline cage and mojave front cab is class 2 or can be use on class 1, and nice video
Thanks. Proline back cage is dovetailed flat/tube bed. Class 2 only
Great video. Really helpful for us new to the hobby.
Thank you. 👍
Great video what does a standard element gatekeeper class as
i thnk 2 or 3 because of bumper positioning and lack of body
Thanks for your information bro. ❤😮😊
Thats for this video it cleared up a lot of stuff foe me
I'm glad it helped
Does the Redcat Gen8 Axe have a legal C1 chassis? Great Video thanks
Yes of course. Portals(Gen8/scx10.3/ trx4) are legal in all classes. Thanks for watching
Hi to all. One question. Where would you categorize a car like the vaterra twin hammers. It is also a crawler, but the chassis don’t have rails. About the body, it can be custom made to fit C1 or C2, but the chassis...
Also it is front independant suspension and rear solid axle.
Can you use cantilever suspension on a class 1 flatbed build ? Great video aswell very helpful as am attempting 1st class 1 build.
Great video. I have a Vaterra Twin Hammers. I gess it only feet in the class 2?
Unless adding wheel whels, and bumpers ?
Sorrca states
“Tub chassis are allowed, but chassis must be covered by the body and follow all other scale rules per class guidelines. An example of a tub chassis vehicle is CC-01, DF01, Twin Hammers, etc.”
I think you can run in any classes as long as you meet all the other requirements
CRAWLER75 ok. Thank you.
is there an in between? class 1.5, minimum front bumper and tires up to 4.73? i think it would be an interesting class. since you would still require class 1 specs such as front windshield and width and a few class 2 contingences' like tire size and front bumper.
Great video man. Keep up the good work. Is there any rules specifying the motor type (brushed /brushless)?
You’re good with any types of motor. The motors can’t be mounted on axles however ( MOA - motor on axle is illegal )
@@slopppy75 thank you man. Sadly, we just started to have championships here in my country and the rules are just totally different and ridiculous.

Excellent info thanks.
GREAT INFO MAN!!!!
Thank you James
Helpful.Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
How about the motor and esc regulation that is allowed and are not allowed? Is it the same ?
Excellent video! btw is there any class 0? They would be stock or factory rc rigs? or more a scale rc just like a real 1:1 street legals?? Thank you!
evoxer87 class0 is not official but the crawl space Colorado has C0 rules laid out. Basically, hard body only, no trimming, max 4.0” tires and higher scale point cap are the notable differences.
@@slopppy75 thank you for the info! 🙏🏼👍🏼👌🏼
What are the specs or rules for sliders or electronic tray slider In order to get the 3 points
that's crazy allowing portals on C1
Is rear wheel steering allowed in either class?
Dna Fpv rear steer is allowed in class 3 only. As is the DIG systems.
Sympa la vidéo 😉
Is redcat gen 8 chassis class 1 legal? I thought to have portals on truck it must have them in its real life counterpart. Unimog for example.
Yes gen8 chassis is class 1 legal to my knowledge.
I think I know the answer but it doesn't really say definitively anywhere... can you cut the chassis to shorten it at all in class 1? It says full length but then also says must be as long as wheelbase.
Great video
Thanks for watching
Nice video. Where are you make a video?
Where in location or software?

So is the rc4wd c2x REALLY considered class 2 out of the box or does it need more ?
Awesome video. Really helped out a lot but I do have a question. I have an element rc Enduro Sendero that I swapped out the rear shocks with cantilever shocks, but I have no rear mounts for the body anymore as they don't fit with the cantilever setup.

HI im totally new to Crawl comp classes. I just purchased an SSD Trail Finder.. what is the best class for this rig to run on?
The Everest gen 7 sport/pro has integrated shock mounts, would it be class 2?
I have a trx4 with a tube rear, but not technically a truggy. Is that not class 2 legal then?
You’re fine. You just don’t get a truggy scale point. It would be tube bed and class 2 legal assuming everything else is within the spec.
Are 6x6 trucks allowed in any of the classes? 🤔
Yes it is allowed and there is extra scale points for it. However, it’s usually disadvantaged because of the length
@@slopppy75 thak you, i'm currently planning on making 6x6 out of my truck and i was worried it would close my possibility to participate in regulated event 👍🏻
Are there certain chassis, tires or other parts that excel, or seem good but actually suck, at these competitions?
As far as a servo mounting what if you have an axial scx10 1 or 2 are you limited to only class 2 than
Where does everyone get these little personalized scale plates?
are the new carbon fiber frames C-1 LEGAL...such as BANGGOOD
So does the trx6 count as a class 1 vehicle? Just curious thanks.
Is their such thing as a 1.5 class 😅 my truck is setup to be a very capable class 1 with very minor class 2 things almost unnoticeable
By tire size definition the TRX4 Defender would be considered a class 2 truck at stock. Is that correct? 117mm stock tire is 4.6 inches, video claims 4.19 before moving into class 2. Am i understanding this correctly?

there is no restriction on portals in any class. You can run in c1 c2 and c3. The biggest drawback of portals are less steering angle and elevated center of gravity
great. just when i was going to get into crawling i find out i have to buy 2 trucks LOL
Ideally you’d want 2 trucks tuned to max for the each classes but you can run c1 in c2.
One strategy is use one chassis and swap out body and bumpers.
