I would like to know this as well.I have notice that the gt2 is longer and i would love to run the vette body on my dm-1 spec.Also is there or can i use the ofna jammin chassis to get the length for the kyosho bodies and still be in the ball park with the rules for gt class thanks.
GT2 has a wheel base of 360 mm (Kyosho ST Chassis)
Ofna Jammin is a buggy so the wheel base length will be 325 or so.
Currently most truggys have wheel base of 370 mm.
Therefore, GT2 bodies only fit Kyosho GT2s for the time being... unless you create your own 360 mm wheelbase chassis!

Nice conversion, i think i will get the jammin chassis and try it.And why will they not let us use carbon fiber chassis this is crazy its a hop up,I mean if the next guy wants to be fast get the right hop ups jmo.

I just look at the jammin x2 and they said the gave it a longer chassis it might look into it.

The idea is to keep the costs somewhat under control, other wise we might as well run 1/8 on-road Serpents, MRX4, etc. You will have to ask Jeff and Roar about that one.
The guys who won the big race in south florida were running very stock cars, except for the engine in the open class.

The dm1-s is a good car, if you really want to blow dough on it visit the guys at www.kingheads.com
They make a lighter aluminum chassis out of 7075 and the hinge pin blocks guys break on those cars. Maxvelocity racing make carbon shock towers and radio tray that are legal. Also find the Ofna DM1 forum and change out to a standard shock tower up front instead of the lay down setup. The car comes with great looking body, Oh yeah add some Ipanema slicks and go have fun at the races!

Here are some pictures of the "Club Kyosho Ajusco" race track.
It is in the mountains above Mexico City. We are working on the production of a video tour of the facilities, that will show everyone how great a track it is.
Get ready for the Ipanema Sports 2011 GT World Championships at "Club Kyosho Ajusco" Mexico City!
