Something I forgot to bring up. As most of you know the M96WC has the "Stock 86" class but I believe I am the only one who has posted a time for that class. I do understand that 86mm bodies tend to be hard to find and expensive and then there is the hardware you need to run 86mm cars so I can see why there has been such limited participation. With that said I love running my smaller wheelbase cars but I tend not to because they are not always the fastest way to get around the track.....save for Traveler who's stock GT1 is wicked fast. I am wondering if there is any interest in putting together say a 90mm hatchback class? Or, maybe just make it a Citroen DS3 class as the white bodies are still easy to find and reasonably priced. I personally find 90mm cars super fun to drive but also a challenge to set up so think might be a really good exerciser for both veterans and newbies alike to learn about chassis set up on a chassis size they are not familiar with.

I am thinking the rules would be similar to the Stock Class with some exceptions:

Kyosho 2WD or 4WD 90mm Chassis
AAA batteries
Stock White Can, PN70T Motor or 3500kv brushless
Kyosho Hatchback Hard Body with no major modifications (The more I think about it I really like the idea of only using the DS3 all in rally liveries)
Other than that anything goes.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Jim
