Miniracing

Miniracing refers to a style of automobile racing that utilizes miniature or scaled-down versions of race cars. These vehicles are typically electric or nitro-powered and are controlled remotely by a driver. The scale of these cars varies, but common sizes include 1/10th scale and 1/18th scale. Tracks for miniracing can range from simple backyard setups to professionally designed dirt or asphalt courses with jumps, turns, and obstacles.

The hobby involves a wide array of vehicle types, including off-road buggies, trucks, and on-road touring cars, each designed for specific track conditions and racing styles. Enthusiasts often engage in customization and maintenance of their miniracing vehicles, much like their full-sized counterparts. Competitions are organized at local, regional, and international levels, with rules and regulations governing vehicle specifications, safety, and race procedures. Miniracing can be a competitive sport or a recreational activity, appealing to individuals of various ages who enjoy the challenges of remote-controlled vehicle operation and miniature motorsport.
