AUGUST 23-29 AT UDEN (NL) & AALST (B)
THE 16TH IMCA WORLDS, EDITION 2004

The 2004 IMCA Nats consist out of two parts. From Monday August 23 to Thursday August 26, all racing goes at the MRTU Blue King in Uden. Here are contested the Red Bull Ultimate G7 Race (U7), the two Yukos G12 Races and the 16th CocaCola 1/24 Model Car World Championship (with as curtain raiser the Red Bull Amateur's Worlds and the Mello Yello Juniors Worlds). From Friday August 27 to Sunday August 29 the IMCA Nats continue with model car racing on the Carrera 6 of the Belgian Model Car Centre.

The Belgian races go exclusively with 49 splendid handout classic cars which will be raced at the F. Gianotti Trophy. Nothing on those cars may be changed without approaval of the constructors (8 in total). The 1/32nd race goes with handout construction kits of NSR-TSRF cars. All what need to be done for this race is bringing with the correct hard plastic DTM body. The Belgian races go exclusively for fun. Here no heavy slot-racing boxes are needed. Even the controllers are handouts by NSR.
