16. Important announcement: In the spirit of keeping TCS Racing unique in terms of appearance to the public at large the Subaru Legacy B4 body (items 53727, 49374 & 53824) are not legal for all GT classes.
EDIT: these rules are for TCS races in the United States

if it was made legal everyone would run it and it would be a field of Legacy's. Tamiya likes to support the use of several bodies and scale appearance. The Legacy is a perfromance body and looks very far from scale.

Are you in the USA or Canada? The rules are different depending - in Canada at least "B4 Tamiya Subaru bodies allowed in GT1. " There are other rule changes too, so lumping all of North America together might cause you trouble.

any NSX... 2003, 2004, 2005. this car is the most popular :nod: Ferrari 360 Modena is good also... but they're discontinued.

Ferrari F430

Definately the NSX and Ferrari (360 and F430) are the most popular. I would also add to check out the Vette. Offers a lot of steering, though i would replace the wing it comes with for the hop-up one.

Going to pick up a NSX body.

What about tires? A, B2, or B3's? Inserts?

if you want to drift... B2! :lol: :lol: :lol: ask any of the old school TCS'ers here in Socal how much they hated those tires! :lol:

AWK 06-08-2006 02:35 PM

Yeah always B3 tires, especially at the Aliso track. It never gets hot enough for B2 tires to work well. Get a set of B3 with green inserts, and maybe one with black inserts(haven't tried those myself).
