1.9 Scale Build off
 

Well after asking around if there should be a 1.9 build off it turns out there are quite a few people who would be intrested in competing in a 1.9 scale build off. There will be a set of rules and if they are not followed you will be disqualified. There will be some sort of prize for the winner(s). If you have any questions feel free to ask. When the deadline comes around I will be asking all the builders to post pics and specs or their rigs. And i will be creating a poll with everybodys name on it who's truck meets all the rules and will let the community of RCC decide the winner.


1. 1.9 scale wheels and tires must be used
2. The wb must be scale to the body.
3. You may enter a work in progress truck.
4.If your truck is not a running truck by the end date it will not be counted in the build off. It MUST be a fully rtr truck.
5. You may use leaf sprung, 4 link or coil over suspension setups.
6. Body should look scale, (either hard or lexan)
7. You may enter a already going project but it has to be 50% or less completed. If you want to enter a truck you already built or bought it has to be 50% different than it is now.
8.The build off starts at 12:00 am tonite
9. You must have pics and specs posted by 12:00 am Nov 25.

• Any rules or rule changes you would like to see.
• When you think the end date should be
• And any other comments or suggestions.

Prizes?

And the trucks should either be 4 linked or leafed.. Now it says only leafs.. Not all trucks have leafs..

And why a hard body? You can make a scale truck with a lexan body too.. If it was that way, All you would see is clodbusters and highlifts..>BLEH!!!

This is scale, Not off the dealership lot

These things need to be addressed, And changed...

i think the end date should be before thanksgiving day.that is about one month. thanks for giving."thumbsup"

also i think it should be leafs all around unless the body you are using comes with 4 link or coil overs.

my 2 pennies.

a tube chassis custom 1.1 doesn't have leafs :roll:

There will be some sort of prize for the winner(s)

Rules changed you can use leaf or 4 link. And hard or lexan body.

This is why i asked for your comments/ suggestions.

Or a Big Arse toolbox in the back!

I think the thanksgiving date is too soon..

And what if your building something similar to the Wyatt Racing Bronco? Its not leafed..

first of year?

I do not think there should be a wheel base limit incase someone wants to do a ext. cab or crew cab hardbody

The rules have been updated. You can use leafs or 4 link. "thumbsup"

That would give us ~100 days.

Cool. I say end around Christmas time!

actually i did have a big ole tool box in my 1.1 to fix other peoples junk when we went wheeling ;-)

Sorry Mike, I was responding to clodstall's suggestion. I noticed you had changed it earlier...

I agree with the first of the year...

I agree about the WB. The scaler that I just built has a 12.5 inch WB! There shouldn't be a limit as long as it looks scale. I'm not sure of the Wb, but I know that obijuans crewcab was really long!

ok so are we setting a cutoff entrance date of tonight, or can anyone just throw thier hat in the ring.

i think that a month is more than enough time.thats part of the challenge, right?? how long do the biker build-off guys have? i am totally up for this one.i have the perfect project that i can start now, in light of this new build-off."thumbsup"

I'd like to get in "thumbsup"
But I don't like the 12" wb either.
I'm planning a Crew cab build, and I know it's more like 12.5"
I agree, wb shouldn't matter, as long as its scale to the body.
I also agree that a month is enough time. Thats what makes it a build off challenge :)

Those guys dedicate 12-14 hrs a day to the bike build off! I know I don't have that kind of time for my RC.:roll:

What ever the rules or time limit, I am in!"thumbsup"

I am starting a 1.9 build soon.... So i would be in too!

Rules are updated. Hows Nov. 25th sound? That gives us ~35 days to build.
