All I can tell you is that you have to use Tamiya parts only. Motor(?), tires, body, etc. Fernando told me tonight that I can use my Trinity Chameleon 2. Call Fernando, he can answer any question.

Motors for F1 are ROAR stock motors only. The cars accept stick packs only, so get the best packs you can and convert them to sticks. If the track is cooler, people run A-Compound tires. When things get over like 75-80 degree track temp is when you'd want to run B-Compound tires. Beyond this, I can't help much; Ask Steve Hickman (Hickmeister) in the TCS thread in the racing forum.
