What he said.

Good luck finding it though.

They only sell through dealers and it took some calling around to find a dealer who had it in stock. I found it at dealer #509 Greenfield News and Hobby in Wisconsin. There was also a dealer in MI that seemed to stock it but they were out of stock when I called. None of the Hobby Towns I called had anything.

Oh, the wind that comes with it is just for show. You'll need to make one or get an HPI wing. There are no stanf-offs molded into the body either.

Did ProtoForm forget about the tease. Its like when I tell the wife I'll clean the kitchen. She gets all excited... then well... my shocks needed rebuilding and well...

Interesting: At the Gate we actually wrote body rules that expanded on Rob's USGT set. No oval, truck, off-road bodies and must be based on a production street vehicle (roughly).
We currently don't allow the prototype bodies.

Thanks for the info guys...I will have to see if I can locate one.

Thanks Chris. Nate was Tq and also won. I'll be back at it at The Gate this weekend. I would love to see a new Corvette or a new Caddy ATS. I think USGT is going to become more popular and hopefully we might see some new bodies in the near future. I sure had a blast running it at the USVTA Indoor Nats last weekend. The HPI BMW I ran I thought handled really well and the Team Scream motors were really fast.

Hi, This what I think is the perfect body for USGT. Great downforce and
excellent steering. It is mounted on a Kyosho TF-5S. Body is discontinued
and nearly impossible to get. Regards

I really like that Kyosho body. I tried to find one for a long time with no luck

I have ran so many different bodies I cant remember them all. The fastest I ever ran was the Mazda Furai on my XRAY T4. I ran it with the big molded HPI wing. I am currently running the Tamiya 599XX body with the big HPI wing and love it. I haven't had any problems with it handling or with durability. Looks awesome too.

has anybody used the Integy 26mm V4 Rubber Radial Touring Car tires for this class.

Doubtful as this class runs a spec tire for the last year and prior to that the norm was hpi xpatterns

Next week!

That Aston looks like it would handle nice. This is my first USGT Body I specifically planned for it, however I have a few M3 bodies to use as well.





Getting ready for when the club starts the class

Looks good. What wing is that?

Thanks. Its the wing from the HPI E46 M3 kit. I wanted to see how it would look while I waited for the actual Tamiya 458 wing to arrive.

What wheels are on that 458, ViperZ?
