The RTR challenge?!

[Benh]

Would anyone be interested in a rtr challenge.

2WD only.
Must arrive at the track UNOPENED and factory sealed.
No mods!.
No spares for first round. (Round 2)
Repairs at track only.
End of race day - sealed in box until next meeting.
Same kit tyres for the season.
You may change setups during race day only.
Only permissable change is RX to accommodate your own tx. (Unfair for stickies to have to use wheels)
Regional rounds only!
If you cheat - car gets given away in free raffle!

It was the price of them that made me think about it.

Would need to be someone doing the 4 or SC, partially sighted, missing a hand maybe. Maybe the Don. At least you wouldn't have to build it

I don't mean it as a seperate class. Entering the 2WD as normal, but an agreement between a couple of people that we run to a strict budget. No trophies, no chance of championship, just kudos

i was thinking aloud.

I see.

I do remember running stock and modified together at Eastrax and made for a few spectacular smashes on the straight due to speed differences. Particularly when you had a less experienced racer running a modified car.

At the risk of causing more caos we could just run the regional series to stock rules and a control tire. That would cut costs for everyone!

I'd be seeded uber low - in fact bottom. I doubt my qualifying would be all that either. Do you think it could still be a problem? It's mostly curiosity to see how far off an rtr is from comparible drivers, but to keep my interest have another rtr to qualy and hopefully race against.
