It's not for me Tony. I'm writing new rules for my club and we are going to allow some of aftermarket bits next year. Don't get me wrong, I too think Tamiya stuffs are the best and I only use Tamiya hopups except rear tire and screws.
There was too many people tried to use aftermarket stuff this year for club and interclub races and since there's no more TCS here in Australia we going to relax the rules a little bit. I'm just doing bit of research. So can anyone help me out?
Ahh I see, that makes more sense...
The only other ones you may want to look at are GPM (
here ) and maybe EAGLE (
here)
We went through this with the VORTEC rules for next year, and in the end decided to leave it as Tamiya hot-ups only. Mainly to keep the cost down as much as anything else - encourage people to leave them pretty stock in that respect.
Also because we've tried most of the aftermarket alloy stuff and 99% of it really is just rubbish (apart from the Jap stuff which is good, but HORRIBLY expensive)
The thing we were really concerned about was 'perception' People seeing other people doing well with a whole heap of alloy stuff on their car and perceiving that they NEEDED that stuff to do well.
That was a big reason for us saying no to it again.
