DRIVING AND COURSE INFRACTIONS:
• Cutting or striking a buoy at any time on the race course is a 50 point penalty per buoy. Cutting more than 3 buoys on the course is
a one lap penalty. Course cutting at the end of the heat is not permitted. After the race is over you may ask permission from the race
CD (contest director) to cut the course. If the CD finds it safe to pass a dead boat, he might allow you to cut.
• Striking a dead boat on the race course draws an instant DQ from the heat.
• Passing can be done on the outside or inside but you must allow at least one rooster tail length to overtake another boat. Intentionally
taking out (crashing) a competitor’s boat will draw a DQ for that heat.
We hope you have fun racing your Minimono!
Remember, the fastest boat does not always bring home the trophy.

Unlike full-size race boats, RC boats turn much better clockwise, due to the motor’s rotation and
torque. The following course has been designed with this in mind as well as the speed and size of the
Minimono for maximum racing excitement.
