I really love the diversity in the body styles, and I think the pictures at the races shows that diversity. If I'm not mistaken, I think Rob K's original intent with the USGT class was to bring realism back to RC road racing, instead of made up bodies just for RC. Great idea!! I think the term GT has confused everybody, especially since everybody has a different definition of the term GT. Probably US Road Racing would have been more descriptive and more inclusive. The key factor is that the RC body should resemble an actual car that exists in full scale....the original intent. No matter what the name is attached to the full size car or it's scale version. All of our bodies at McAllister Racing are scale versions of actual cars that exist. Hope that explains our approach to our road racing bodies.
