Get into F1 now before all the major manufacturers and pro drivers get involved and ruin the class.

Basically, have fun while it lasts.

Why didn't you just say this in the first place:

I also find 17.5 TC more interesting, because you can run as a pack and run door to door and really race people hard. I dont think ive seen a F1 race where there were enough good cars for that to happen, that video included.

Lightfoot, you want a car that demands throttle control, run mod tc..
Your first quote makes you sound like a jerk. The second quote at least says something with a little depth.

So I decided to go the TC route first and picked up a Sakura Zero S to get my feet wet. If the F1 class takes off at the new onroad track this summer, I will most likely pick up an F1 as well. Thanks for all the feedback.
