The racing simply is not fun for GT's to run on the same size tracks.

There are more 1:10 off road tracks currently in use in the ROAR affiliation and if GT has any life at all... I think promoting the class and placing their premiere racing in a venue that supports the vehicle is the best choice.

I have discussed this over and over with major team drivers and although they don't like the prospect of yet another event they have to attend, contractually... it would be better for the class, privateer racers and the tracks who build these types of facilities.

But..... the downside is another class at 1:10 off road nats.... and most guys run the three mod classes and supporting their cars for gas racing as well takes out what one person can physically do in a day of wrenching.. ya know?
