I know running those were outlawed a while back. Do you know if they got reinstated in the current rules for VTA or USGT?

I was reading the national VTA rules awhile back, and I didn't think I saw anything about them being outlawed, I may be wrong though.

Outlawed ?? I was refering the stock sedan back in the day...there was 19T brushes motor in the VTA for not very long before they changed to brushless

oneway was outlawed begining back then in VTA ..you have to relized that the motor was 13.5 and some were 17.5 ...now is 25.5 with gearing limit ..oneway it is non issue to cause to loose control of the car with 25.5

Will Scale spec class rule expand to include other 25.5 motors such as Tekin gen 2 25.5 in the future?

Blitz Bodies

Hey dudes!

Has anyone tried car bodies by Blitz? They make one for touring carpet and high traction asphalt that looked cool. Cheap, too. About $15 each. They make bodies for other classes too. Check it!

Just curious what you guys think :-)

Peace,
Samwise

Probably not as long as it stays attached. But if it's mounted high and it's heavy, it could give you traction roll issues. And if you're in Novice or Scale Spec... it can get a bit rough out there at times.

Not sure which one that is.
