Oh, this thread is priceless!!
In the hope of retaining some form of decorum (before I leave thsi thread and allow you all to continue as you were, lol)...
Sarah, a car is either too wide (>209mm) or it fits within our dimensional rulings (<=209mm). If a car is found to be "a touch over 209mm wide" it will still fail, no exceptions.
The 213mm stated in the Carisma brouchure/manual is an incorrect figure from the original specification of the GT14B prior to the car being re-scaled to fit the BRCA dimensional rules. It probably just got forgotten about.
And to whoever mentioned that the CML site states the GT14B as being a 1/14th buggy, I think all that has now been changed, thanks for pointing it out
Rest assured fans, everything is in order. I raced a stock GT14B with stock wheels and tyres for most of last season and had no issues with width at all.
As I sit here craving the cigarettes that I gave up 2 days ago, this thread will keep me company
lol
