I just got some new premounted tires and they have the new 6 spoke rims. I was vocal that these new rims were ugly, but in reality, they aren't that bad. I got them in black and they look fine plus they are 1.4 grams lighter per rim. Good job Paul.

Scroll through the PHOTOS tab here- there are a bunch;

If RCTech is still blocking the link just go to facebook and search Cal Raceway.

Here is mine. I used the headlight decals from a Protoform AMR-12 1/12 pan car body because I don't like the P1-Z headlights.

What body is everyone running on the CRC black carpet for USGT? Pros and cons of each? Do you run different bodies depending on grip/layout? Thank you in advance

PF Vittoria. Feels pretty balanced w/a touch more stability than steering.

Steering Servo

I know it varies from track to track and chassis to chassis but what would the minimum torque spec you think is reliable for a USGT car. Specifically FWD.(so lighter car)

Anyone think an ~8.5kg/cm(120oz/in) is totally insufficient at a novice/intermediate club level? I mean how much torque did servos have 15 or 20 years ago, I feel like the new defacto 10kg min is overkill for a lot of scenarios.

If this is a reasonable hypothesis, then it frees up about 20g of mass for me to either ditch, or be able to move around the car for tuning with no detriment to total weight.

Thoughts?
