TC or GT12?
 

Hi all,

I am not new to the RC world having pitted for my lad at 1/8 Rallycross & Truggy nationals, Neo and god knows how many club meetings but he stopped racing a few years ago .....
I am putting together an 1/8 buggy with the intention of finally having a go myself next year but am thinking that some indoor action over the winter certainly wouldn't hurt!
All of my local clubs seem to run onroad only so my question is .... bearing in mind that the car will be a bit of a 'banger' to start with am I better off looking at a Touring Car or GT12? Which is more forgiving? Slower?! :blush:
Interested to hear your thoughts, thanks

Having done both I'd definately recommend GT12 over TC for starting out.
Easier to drive, setup, cheaper and generally slower.
It's a great class for cutting your teeth in racing and learning race etiquette etc.

Thanks, that was my initial thinking ..... just need to find a bargain set up now (the buggy is eating my cash!!)

Check out the various GT12 pages on Faceache. Theres always loads for sale.

Will do thanks ..... notice you are local too, do you race at Worcester?

I do indeed. Its a great club, very friendly bunch and plenty willing to help and advise. At the moment GT12 seems to be on the decline at the club but there is always at least 1 heat of GT12's. When you come just ask for me and I will help you out if I can. :thumbsup:

I'll need all the help I can get ...... I still know my way around an 1/8th but electric is a bit of a mystery even though my lad did dabble with 2WD and TC!

It may be worth joining the WMCC Facebook page and ask if anyone has a GT for sale.
