The new FFO3 cars have been allowed to run--because they also have the correct bodies usually, and have been found to be competitive if setup properly. BUT---they already have their OWN class to run in. Changing SUPER GT is not necessary for them to remain TCS legal--they have a class designed for them.
This class has shown great response and is growing---STOP tinkering with it before it has a chance to grow bigger. CHANGE is not always best---leave it alone! Simple cheap esc's and 21.5 motors make you competitive if you learn to drive. Solaris tires last forever, I've got some with over 40 runs on them still working fine!

My point was solely for FF03/ SGT+ not for SGT.
