The rules & guidelines are pretty much the same as what you have put in here, mostly relating to car types, weight, motors, esc's, tires, body shells etc.
There's nothing set in stone as yet as we are evaluating what people would like within the class but I dare say it'll be similar to what you have put here.

Another thought with the VTA class is for the length of time for the races, with pretty much everyone having decent high capacity lipo batteries maybe consider extending the time from 5 mins to 6 mins, maybe even more for a final?

Not so long ago I got myself a Dodge Challenger shell but part of the sticker sheet had come loose and was sticking to itself. The rear bumper sticker was trashed along with the rear trim around the tail lights, I was able to carefully rescue the tail light one thankfully.
Seeing your paint design on your Dodge gave me a little inspiration on how to do a paint job that looked good without having the rear chrome bumper sticker. Not shown in the pictures is a Hobbyking set of car led's that I picked up for about $5 and installed them in the car which has earned it the nick name of "Sparkles" at the track.

That looks SWEET Rob, very nice.

Punchy Pete has some front lights installed and they look great at night, am considering some for mine after seeing them
