Rules need to lay down in writing....on a website or something, so others can read it, share opinion, and the one whos setting the rules can adjust or explain why they can or cannot adjust that specify rule.
Engine with its original pull start MUST BE attached onto the car....engine with pullstart DOES NOT mean it need to be start with it, its all depends on the size of the flywheel....most all the IGT I have seen at Leisure Hour were started by the buggy size starter box, or the rotostart, or pullstart...is the owner choice.
1-piece exhaust....please, keep that onto the OFF ROAD or ON ROAD, most RTR kit exhaust are the one with the coupler...keep it that way.
Tires are open, as long as they are rubber...foam is for 12th scale and 1/8th,1/10th on road.
Bodies - GT type bodies or TC bodies. No OVAL bodies, no 1/8th LOLA type bodies. No REAR FLOATING MOUNT conversion allowed (I have seen ppl did that...)
2-speed gear box...OPEN but with some limited modification, will address that in the future.
Clutch...no CENTAX period. Then...it is open to any # of shoes and material.
No 1/8th On Road Car BELT DRIVE conversion....must be Buggy Base Chassis.
All mfr original options allowed such as sway bar, shocks, screws, this and that...
Minumum weight....someone should figure this out, something not super light and probably use 1 of the RTR kits from OFNA and Kyosho and average them out and call that number...
Who wants to add or adjust the above...please speak out.
