lol HATERS gonna HATE!

I've seen one of these in our GT Class in SoCal - and it handled really well, and was painted nice, and looked kinda cool making laps.

hey everyone,

Looking to get into USGT racing in central indiana. Does anyone know if the 190mm HPI BMW M3 GT touring car body will fit on the Xray T4 or would I be better off going with a 200mm body? Here are the (3) bodies I really like. Are they all legal in USGT?

1) 190mm HPI BMW M3 GT

2) 200mm HPI Nissan Skyline R34 GTR

3) 190mm HPI Nissan Skyline R34 GTR

Thanks for any input and help in advance!

Any 190mm body will fit a T4.

Appreciate the quick respones. Just ordered the M3 GT probably go with a gunmetal or dark blue paint :D Will be my first paint job so I'm going to stick with one color maybe a simple design. With this 190mm body, will I need offset wheels?

You never need offset wheels. You don't have to fill out the wheel wells, run what you need to have the car handle right.

^^^^^ What He said ^^^^^ 0 offset wheels and if you need to adjust the width, for handling, use spacers or wider wheel hexes. :tire:

Looking forward to a new FORD GT body. Just not sure it can be done one piece. Very cool however!

Speaking of designs people don't like, my son and his buddies are using Need for Speed to come up with the butt-ugliest cars. They are making some amazing things. LOL

That is terrible.

These 24 GT cars from Eddie Cheever racing sure look nice. Would make a great basis for a paint scheme.
