For the Kyosho cars, there is a starter setup on page 13 of this thread. It is a good base for both the Inferno GT1 and GT2 cars. Then, you can tweak from there.

Default Novice Drivers and G.T. (Buggy Based) racing

We have been asked to consider the new or "novice" racers as part of our program, The new racers are always in need of help and advice and so beginning this month, We urge the novice racers to come out and try their luck at competetion racing.

The club racers are more than happy to assist the new drivers with help and advice to make thier cars easier to drive and more fun overall. As an added incentive, we will place novice drivers in the novice class for qualifying and mains, discount the practice and race fee to all Novice racers and I will provide awards out of my own pocket to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers in all novice mains. this applies to all scales and types of cars participating in Novice Class

The G.T. Buggy Based class is something we have been trying to promote also, we welcome Nitro and electric and please spread the word that this program begins ASAP

G.L.A.R.C.R.C.

Great Idea! This will increase the number of races willing to race. I will try to do the same here.

It was something my friend and i worked on he has a shop where he custom makes rc jets and has the tools to make canopys and other lexan molds, and the Euro bodies are about 10mm to 12mm shorter than the DM-spec it just an experiment to make a bodies is a more grand scheme for myself this barley made the sheet we had left from scrapes.
