If I do this modification in my car will it be in the spec class or will it be on the open class??? I want to do the conversion but then my car will be in an open class I think and it won't be in the spec class. I think this mod is not allowed in the spec class. This is a very good advantage over the stock cars.

Yes you are right there are no rules by ROAR but my track has very finicky rules for the IGT class. One of the rules says you can’t modify the clutch’s and in this mod you are modifying the second speed clutch but anyway I will ask at my track what will happen with this kind of mods in the IGT class. At my track they wanted to keep the IGT spec class as entry level to keep the class as cheap as possible that’s why spec class don’t allow expensive engines but the second speed modification is pretty expensive. But will see how the tracks handle this modification in the IGT class.

Kyosho has released a new "B" part number for the gear set that is supposed to solve the problem. Same part # with a "B". That is what I would do first.

Jorge,
The OS VZ-B VSpec engine you have in the IGT, takes you out of Spec class, you shouldn't worry about being in the guidelines of spec class with the 2 speed when you run that OS engine.

Vad,
I am no worried at all... I am just asking about the rules because if you remember when this class started in our track they were very tight with the rules and you know very well how many emails went back and forward about the rules and this modification is out of the rules for the spec class.

My car has not been on a track though, but I believe that is what most guys are running.

Thanks...
I had MP 777 front shocks all the way around on my car for awhile, they worked very well, I currently have 80 weight losi in mine. I am using the black SP spring set. I just replaced them with the SP shocks by Kyosho. They are a really nice upgrade, they have less stiction and of course threaded shock bodies.

How else could you get one of these transmission conversions if you don't have a LHS that does business with Ipanema Sports? I would like one for both my cars (IGT1 & IGT2) but there is not a LHS near me that does business with you.
Also, how could I get some of those 1/10th scale rubber tires for my nitro & electric touring cars? I would like to try them out on our carpet track (we run a rubber tire class) and for outdoor concrete/asphalt racing.

The package is very complete, you won't be saving anything trying to track down the individual components from several different cars/brands.
A lot of time & energy has been put into the Ipanema Black Hawk SR Transmission to make it easier for you to win.

There's a lot more going on with the conversion than you might think. The parts you have are only the tip of the iceberg.
