2023 IMPBA SPRING NATS UPDATE
We will be opening the event up for entries at 10 AM EST on Sunday, January 15th. You will not see the races posted on RCRacingEvents.com until this date and time. Each day of the 3-day event will be treated as a standalone race. That means you will see 3 different races posted on RCRacingEvents.com. One for Friday, one for Saturday, and one for Sunday. Here are the classes being offered each of the 3 days:

When registration opens each class will have a predetermined number of slots available based on past race attendance. Unlike in years past, we are going to hold the predetermined number of slots open for 2 weeks before starting to shuffle things around and moving heats from one class to another. So, if any class you are trying to enter is SOLD OUT there will be a waiting list available on RCRacingEvents.com. Please add your name to the waiting list because in all likelihood we will be able to offer up additional heats of the more popular classes if the less popular classes do not sell out. In the event any class is moved from one day to another (to balance out the number of heats each day) all impacted racers will be notified well in advance of the event.
General Race Info:
• IMPBA sanctioned
• Race Format: 3 predetermined rounds per class with only the top-6 point earners advancing to the 4th round Shootout (points from the first 3 rounds do carry forward and count toward your overall score)
• Each day is a self-contained event. All 3 rounds plus the 4th shootout round for classes on any given day will be completed that day and the trophies for those classes will be handed out
• 2-minute start clock / full-course mill - No launch after 30 seconds, no exceptions
• Classes without 5 entries are subject to being canceled 2 weeks after entries open (refunds will be given if your class does not make the cut). Additional classes or additional heats of other classes may be offered in place of those that are canceled
• Trophies awarded 1st, 2nd, 3rd
• Open Water Thursday the 20th, ONLY
• Any gasoline engine (Zen, QD, J&G, M&D Cast, etc) allowed in the LSG 23-30 classes. (max displacement 30.5cc)
• Motors for the P Limited classes shall be of an inrunner design and shall not exceed the following dimensions:
(a) Length: 60mm (2.362 in.), this includes any bearing protrusion
(b) Diameter: 37 mm (1.457 in.)
• IMPBA and/or NAMBA cards will be checked (including pitmen) prior to ANYONE putting a boat in the water. All IMPBA memberships must be current and paid through the IMPBA website prior to the event. All NAMBA members must have a current NAMBA membership and pay the $15.00 single event fee through the IMPBA website prior to the event
• Entries being taken via www.rcRacingEvents.com only and must be pre-paid
• We expect the event to be bigger than ever this year so parking will be at a premium. We will have AMB members on site to help with parking. You will be expected to set up your tent and trailer and then remove your tow vehicle from the pit area and park along the driveway. This will make more room in the pits for additional racers.
Thanks, and we hope to see you there!
