Right now, it looks like we will be running TC chassis, 190 -200mm Truck bodies, with 19t motors, and used cs27's.... Is that the concensus ?

How do people feel about the wings on the back ? anyhting, or ... Lip spoilers..

Tony they are racing sedans with truck bodies, not offroad trucks!

Speedy, I just put that picture up there figuring someone would need to comment on it. I will slap the 190mm Chevy P/U body on my FK05.

More weight means more corner speed! LOL. The darn thing can't slow down.

Yeah the impact seems to hurt more!

The euro trucks is a good Idea. They were running them here at Coral springs for a while.

While the eurotrucks are a cool idea, we already have a group of guys that is intertested in the pickups, The Yokomo bodies are $32 bucks, I am betting we can get the truck bodies slot less then that. I am sure as soon as we have bunch of them running,people will see how much fun it is.

I really like the idea of group starts, and maybe running backwards on the track...
