This is a club not a TCS. We do not need everybody to buy a Tamiya and discriminate against other brands. Please, stop talking about Tamiya because I am not buying one. Nobody cares about the TCS.
I think we should have no tire rules. But if we do, we should buy Sweep tires- they’re cheaper & they do work. I’m willing to compromise on the gear ratio & weight only if there is a difference.
Let’s have fun & race. Who cares who wins.
When you've adjusted the rules to what you've just purchased, which is in direct oppostion to what everyone else purchased, let those interested know.
No matter, it would seem this issue is solved...You now have at least three that want to run an...
open/mod mini class;
any chassis
any weight
any gearing
any tires
any motor? - your call, more than likely 17.5, as that's what you ran in F1
I'm simply not interested in that right now, how much clearer do I need to be. The ABC kits are awesome, wouldn't mind having one myself, as are other mini scaled kits. Wouldn't mind a Corally Mini-Assassin, always wanted one. I'd pick one up in the future to race with you guys.
Tamiya M-Chassis class;
Tamiya M-Chassis (odd having to re-state this) exluding the M-04
1250 grams minimum
fixed maximum gearing by design (20T pinion, fixed gearbox)
21.5 or 540-J/Mabuchi silver can
agreed upon tires (I prefer Tamiya as they come in most kits to keep cost down, but whatever)
The Tamiya M-Chassis class seems like good close racing. Should anyone want to do that, I'll bring my M-06.
