and I can't believe I just read through this malarkey... put the keyboard down, follow the rules, not stretch, try to change them, or otherwise and go f'ing race for god sake.

OUTLAW VTA FTW..
We ran that for about 6 solid months after UF1 died off due to F N whiners pissn n moanin every time out.
So a bunch of us started an Outlaw VTA with our 21.5s.
Never guess what happened.
Pissn n moanin.
R.I.P. OUTLAW VTA.
Gotta be a way to just unfriend these goons, "we have the right to refuse service..."
UF1 gonna give it another go starting tomorrow.
Wish us luck and check it out UF1rc.com
Now back to our regularly scheduled...

Agreed. They end up so scared of loosing that one guy that shows every week, they end up loosing half a dozen or more that show up twice a month.

NOTICE!!!!… we will not be holding racers on this, as most already have their bodies painted and ready to go for the event. But make sure the body you run is a USGT body and is approved. Thank you

So that means points are not given correct ... ?? I will protest these points since the body weight rule isnt being inforced 😝

Adds 5-7 grams depending on hardware used. Plus since I started running them haven't had a single body tuck even with super/ultra light TC bodies.

Everyone that goes to a local track should be thankful for any people that are willing to take time away from their family and life to give people a place to play with their toys. That’s why I don’t understand all these “body weight” “paint job doesn’t look real” racers crying about all this stuff instead of thinking of positive ways of bringing new racers in and growing the sport.

Following rules I get that and I am willing to do it, so should the rest of the racers. The body paint thing I don't even worry about what some other guy decides to do or not do, if one color suits me then piss on what the person who doesn't pay for a thing of mine thinks. I just love to race and racing alone sucks. Building a large racing community is way more important than all of this keyboard battling that goes on....just saying
