It really depends what the novices turn up with.
The novice race is so as if there are any dads who want to run VTA/mini, they can bring the kids and they can have a run, for newbies to have a play at the track and get interested in racing.
Is a bit hard given all the different types of RTR's out there, its one of those "will have to wait and see what turns up" sort of things.
The novice class wont be for "experienced racers" who dont have a mini and/or VTA.

I'm not experienced, well not onroad, just a average offroader with a car I wouldn't mind having a go at onroad without spending lots of dollars. I've got a sparrowhawk with a mini combo in it, was hoping i could just slap the standard radials back on it one day and give a run around a proper onroad track. I've only even run once on a real track back in Christchurch NZ.

Yeah would agree with Pete, slap the wheels on and come for a run on any practice day, see if you like it (im sure you will lol)

Muzz the SparrowHawk is much like the TC4 Associated so it will be a very good car for VTA, Noel I think uses 55T Spur with a 34-35 Pinnion on a 21.5 Brushless and he does very well as do a few others with simillar cars.. I would have to get Noel AKA Backdoor to make sure of the ratios...
All you need to do is make sure you run an Untimmed 21.5 Stock system and regulation bodies and tyres the rules and regs are all on the first couple of pages of this thread.. Would be good to see ya down with us ...
PS Silvercans work well too but not sure of the Ratios...

Hi guys, VTA is being run as a class at thr RAB hobbies classic this weekend at Bendigo, just thought I`d whack up a pic of my Sakura, paint loosely based on John Bowes mustang of a few seasons ago, ohh, it also has a full interior with a Stig at the wheel!
