See below in yellow,    I would like to look at these items.    I don't want to run a complete box stock without any tuning options to fine tune some.    I think springs,  tire truing, taping and gluing should be allowed just to tune a bit.  Thoughts?  

This would be the rule set that I would propose for the class to start. We are clearly going to need some modifications as we test them out and race.

Body: - Stock Porsche 911 GT3 No modifications.
I think we should be allowed to paint over the stock body as well.
maybe use a white body kit and paint as long as it meets the minimum weight. What happens when the body gets broken and has to be replaced? this is the less expensive option.


Suspension: - No suspension mods (We may have to spec a knuckle and T-Plate if stock is too hard to get).
Spec a replacement kit parts or pick a spec T-plate and Knuckles
allow springs as a tuning option?


Tires: - Box stock for now. I'm sure we will need a spec tire TBD. Maybe PN Medium Rear and Firm Front.
I think we should spec a tire from the start,  I'm not even sure how we know what the stock tires are in able to duplicate them once a set is gone.
I think we leave tire diameter, taping and sidewall gluing open to the racer as tuning options.


Rims: - Stock
I prefer a spec replacement to the stock wheels.


Gearing: - 6T (or whatever comes on it) and Stock gear diff (not sure about this gearing, but all need to be the same).
6Tooth is what comes on standard.   this would be slow especially on a big track,   maybe run a 7 or 8 but have it a fixed gear for uniformity.

Electronics: - Stock Board FHSS 2.4GHz - No Gyro's
No Fet upgrades, or specify a fet in case a board blows?  I just checked and the boards are about $40 so Maybe just have to replace with stock?
