GT8 Class--buggy-based on road electric!

I think your preching to the wrong group there Jspeed, if you notices theres no ROAR approved rules where we race and I think I speak for everyone that attends these races that one's it gets to competitive then the real reason we race goes out the window and that reason is called FUN.
Competition is fun for racers. Good luck to you.
See ya at the races!

I could only hope your would keep your word, but no such luck. You are being an ARSE the way you are handling this.

I don't know, when they finally establish rules for the class, I'll have to see if my body passes. For now, who cares - looks like a real car, so I'm happy.
Well people with respect for our hobby know that all REAL cars come in many sizes...I spend real money and real time working on my 1/8th GT, same as I do on my full size(1/1) FX35.
If you think your approach on RC Tech is going to help you sell more bodies with people who might be on the fence, then your marketing strategy sucks. Instead just accepting that alot of people who race GT aren't as fired up about the Warrior as you are, you belittle them, talk down to them , challenge their reasons for racing and their skill levels. I don't give a rat's a** how much effort and money you put into developing your body... if you act like a jerk to nice people here who are just telling you their opinion, then you'll lose me forever as a potential customer.
I told you earlier today I'd consider buying one of your bodies. Now, I'm not so sure. Good thing I don't need Impanema tires to be competetive around these parts.
Last words to you few Warrior haters....
"
How many of your beloved “replica” bodies would pass the ROAR bubble level test?"
"For those of you that don’t seem to know much about real cars, it’s actually called a “SPOILER” not a wing.

Steve, I would have to agree with everyone. Your STRC Slash 4wd looked pretty dialed. I also noticed that you didnt have to baby it around the corners as much as some of the other cars that would spin out. Looks like your product will be a BIG HIT on the track! ALso, i think starting next month, it is TIME to have an EXPERT GT8 class. GT8 PRO is in fellas! Great job in making this class grow more and more every race week!
I am certain that Charlie is good with hearing out what the racers want. I am good with whatever he decides. Pro Class or not, I am grateful for all of you who have decided to run this class and to OC Circuit for providing a venue for us to enjoy it.

Clay,
Wasn't trying to belittle anyone, sorry if it came across that way, really.
Just sick of the excuses made by the 2 guys in your area that are against our products because they can't sell them and want to keep the option unavailable to guys in California.
Its also unreal when someone posts, how they're not at the driving level they want to be, yet refuse to want to try to learn more at the same time.
The statments about our spoiler height is true. I brought it up because of how some want to call the Warrior a cheater body, when in fact the spoiler height would conform with ROAR's other on-road rules and most "replicars" would not.
Anyway, I'm tired of this really, you guys in California win. Have fun doing what you do. No grude no foul.
Good luck!

Protoform PF8 passes the spoiler to roofline spec !!!
[QUOTE]
Ok first , it's called a spoiler, not a wing , at least according to people who claim to know real cars.
I'll take that challenge - let's see if I can find my REAL car in this messy garage.
One Protoform PF8 body on my Inferno GT, and now the test......
PASS... Wonder if Protoform looked at the possible rules for the class when designing their body?
I'm good to go for ROAR racing. Come on out to the West coast ,Jspeed , so I can watch you gracefully wind your way between all of us as we slide hopelessly out of control going into the sweeper..... And don't worry, we don't break parts when we crash because our bodies don't let us go fast enough to do any damage.
Put a level on the roof and your wing, is the bubble in the center or is it higher in the rear?
According to ROAR regulation, would your “GT” body pass or fail the level test?

Good one Clay

Ok, I've been a lurker for awhile, just now building my GTP2e. I've been following a few threads trying to gain some knowledge and insight from you GT8 racers. As a 'new guy', I speak from point of view of those that you're trying to attract to this class.
To the point, frankly I, as well as probably others, am tired of this whole Jspeed crap/banter going on in this and other threads. This does NOT help get the Gt class to grow. Ban this guy and move on, or as Jspeed said himself about another, ignore him and he'll go away.
BTW, Jspeed, don't pm me. I've already read enough on your crap.

I am in the same boat. I want to get into GT8 or GT8 lite but all this body banter is discouraging.

Dag32 don't worry about the bodies just run whatever body you want just keep one thing in mind cut your body like you would cut your 1/10 scale touring car body, don't go crazy and cut out the whole rear end like some people here on this thread.
#2411
We have a bigger race coming up on the 24th if some one comes out the that body I will not send them home.. This is a fun thing for all..
#2412
That's why most of us have set our settings to ignore all post made by him. Its a lot better reading this thread when you don't have to see any of that crap.

So quit pushing your body on to us "racers"
Would be extremely odd if ROAR decided to outlaw all these bodies, because they were designed with the "rear wing" above the roof line.
