 Guess I'm not as old as some of you guys.....Looks like 3D interior to me, I'd give it a -3. As far as those Integy tires go........they look like siped Mashers with an extra rib. The fact that they are Integy means that they are hard as hell, and probably don't perform worth a crap, so I prefer that everyone but me uses them. I would vote for them to be legal. | |

 I think that if the Bruiser/Mountaineer/Hilux interiors are given -3 points I don't see any reason that the lexan interiors cut from a Pro-Line body should not be considered -3 pts also.  | |

Yeah Pro-Line interior is better quality, more scale looking & about the same price if not more.

My guess is because they are only a half of interior. I mean can you place a full driver in them? Even the steering wheel is at half. Sure its a great idea to do and keep your electronics hidden with more room between the lexan interior and chassis. As well as being light weight. But to me, you loose the ability to work your electronics around a full 3 dimensional interior. Imo |

Bruiser interior on the other hand has a full height bench seat just no leg area. The driver in mine is lopped off just below the knee but otherwise well proportioned for realism. I could care less personally as to how many neg points will be awarded for either. I will still be running mine with the Bruiser interior and repro Blazing Blazer driver (which weighs almost as much as the Bruiser interior). | ||

Anyone have a different picture of the Bruiser interior at a different angle? Doesn't look like you could wedge a driver in the Pro-line interior. To me a 3D interior should always be able to fit a driver in it. I think that the Bruiser looks like a much more realistic interior than the Pro-line one....something about a vacuum formed lexan interior that just doesn't do it for me. To me it's just taking the easy way out, and I don't think people should be rewarded for that....scale points should be earned. |
