The manufacturers decide the scales....some things aren't actually scaled versions of anything....sizes can be off :good:

 

The BRCA are just a body that regulates some/most of the racing. Click here for information.

SORRCA would probably be more towards the scale side of things at a guess and some scaler events carry very strict rules.

Scales of vehicles are very rarely actually accurate, when you check the specs of RCs vs full sized vehicles, most (10th) RCs are closer to 11th and 12th scale, but because they around the size of a 10th scale RC vehicle, they just call it that.

Then you have the other side of it, which is stuff like the Summit, being bigger than most 8th scales but they call it 10th.

The best thing to honestly do is just not pay much attention to it :good:
