Overview
With a comprehensive 2024/25 LMP12 National season behind us the UK is seeing a continued build of momentum running through the 12th scale community! The 2025/26 season’s venues and dates are already locked and loaded! Early booking in is recommended when we open for entries at the earlier time of July 1st 2025.
LMP12 is currently on a high in the UK with the British team bringing back the silverware from the ’25 Euros held in Belgium. We celebrate Ollie Payne as European Stock Champion and Finley Whitelock as European Junior Stock Champion. We are also proud to sport the most competitive group of young racers seen anywhere in the world, all racing at the very highest level.
We welcome back Stafford and West Bridgford clubs to the National roster, both hosting again after stellar debut gigs last year. We are returning to Dorset club in Poole after too long away! As always, our respect and thanks go to stalwart 12th clubs, Eastbourne, Crewe and Chesterfield making up the most complete season seen since Covid!
Classes & Notes
LMP12 classes for the 2025/6 season will be 13.5 Stock and 6.5 Modified. The 13.5 Stock class will be run on an open basis, so no separate formula finals; finals will be run A-Z based on qualifying.
Drivers will be assigned formulas based upon ratings at the start of the season, subject to scrutiny by the 1/12 section committee. Drivers with ratings near the break point will have the opportunity to choose their formula. Formulas will be announced before the start of the season.
The 6.5 Modified class will have a 6.5 turn motor limit and will be run subject to there being at least fifteen entries in the class for round 1. If the entry requirement for the first round is not met, drivers will be offered a transfer to Stock class. The number of places in each class is determined on a first come, first served basis. So if one class fills up it’s initial allocation we will re-shuffle the numbers in each class.
All classes will use zero-timing (blinky) speed controllers and motors and batteries from the BRCA Equipment Recognition Board lists current at the date of each event.
Entry.
Drivers may only enter for 1 class per event.
Please note that pure RC4 transponders (AMB Percy and Pro) should not be used at these events.
