I've got a question for the "rules makers", I'm not really looking for opinions, just a yes or no for the "Bosses".

"Wheels- Any 24 or 26mm spoke (non-dish) type wheel". Is the Jaco "prizm" wheel allowed, it not being a "dish"? With all the issues with broken or cracked wheels, is this a "legal" option?

I'd say so. I use the five spoke white Tamiya 24mm wheels. They are a softer material and seem to be pretty durable. Quite inexpensive too.

I'm going to say yes cause other than roar nationals and snowbirds Matt Lyons has used only jaco wheel ride tire combos (with ride inserts btw)

I find the Jaco wheels are as good, if not better, than any wheel on the market, today.

I've has really good luck with the Ride 16 spoke rims. They are just hard to find sometimes

And btw if you use glue on wheel to fix a crack the CA glue will disolve the insert several of your locals have found this out the hard way ... Do not reglue the wheels if they break

Have you tried "foam Safe" CA? They use it for airplanes all the time.

any 24 or 26mm spoked type, non dish rim is allowed

Thanks RobK, that's what I was looking for. A definitive answer.

How do I find out if the Tamiya Subaru Legacy B4 2 was on the T2 list historically?

robk 07-25-2016 03:54 AM

No legacy....its a regular sedan body

I want to know if the body list is going to be updated to include
The new Tamiya body the Rikirri?

NutDriver 08-02-2016 11:59 AM

Is the Rikirri based on a real 1:1 car? I've seen pics of the Tanya body, but not what it's based upon.
