Ha ha! That one's sticking! SERIOUS about Pineapple Pighand Studios!

With regards the vintage series I would say no motor limits. A controlled motor would be ideal but in reality the vintage cars will be most people's second/third cars so they are only likely to run them if they can use whatever they already have in the pit box.

I have a TRX-3 almost ready to run (well it's been almost for about 3 yrs... :blush: ) and hopefully will be able to run a borrowed Avante. :woot:

Nice one Stants, I can lend you a 6.5 to go in the Avante! :lol:
What do you need for the TRX3? I'm sure between Dyna and Balders it can be made race ready!

Pete, not sure the 6.5 would be quick enough. :lol:
(There is an evil side to me that would love to buy a brand new in box Avante and then strap a 4.5 in it for a laugh. I would then put a video on that Tamiya club site. It would start with me ripping into the pristine packaging and then cut to the run up of an attempt to jump a house with it, or long jump off Weston pier. :D Quite a bit of $$$ for a quick laugh though...)

As for the Traxxas I have all the bits (although proper white front wishbones and bumper would finish it off nicely.) I did a full rebuild about a year ago but just need to get electrics in etc. Also got a new shell that needs spraying. Hopefully get it done soon if find some time. :rolleyes:

I know what you mean about finding time!

As we have an overwhelming majority who want to run brushless, then how about limiting the brushless runners to 10.5 or slower?
