HO World International Rules
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
HO World has taken it upon themselves to set up a track, and rules for the HO community. We are also arrogant enough to call them "International". First off, regarding that naming convention, HO World IS International. Second, the term "International" is written in conjunction with "HO World", so the name does fit the situation.

The hope is to make rules that can be applied easily for any race group, use inexpensive third party parts that improve on the original, with the least effort to all, and level the playing field while improving the driving experience.

We do not offer a race format. That is up to you, and the group you race with. What our intent is, is to have a way of quantifying results across a broad spectrum of racers, and to offer a guideline for as many racers as we could. To that end, if you build either track, and use our rules, please let us know your results.

You can get to the particular rules you need from the links at the right. Please give us feedback.
International Rules:

1. Thunderjet

2. Tyco/Mattel
