Default Is Sporty the new Pro

Lots of Stellar builds going at the moment. Light weight progression, custom parts, innovation.

Is sporty the new it class for 2013.

PS no arguments about the name you know what I mean

I have to agree that this class is going to be big. I built a sporty and didn't give it a fighting chance. Possibly ahead of the curve a bit. But looking for one right now.

I truly doubt that the MOA rigs will ever become obsolete... but at the same time, shafty rigs are for sure more interesting at the moment

Given the option, I would without a doubt build a shafty rig as opposed to an MOA

I think that's why he let me drive his spare 2.2 pro when I first started comping

Not for me, atleast for now. Can't see soaking over a grand into something I would hardly use. Although with all these sick builds anything could happen. Don't get me wrong I love the class, but just can't justify yet.
Later,
Farmer

Bumping this thread for some more opinions. Especially with WCC just around the corner and the even more killer builds that are popping up of late.

I think it a badass class. It's perfect for the guy that wants a challenge and for a kid just getting into it that doesn't want be overwhelmed with all the controls a a MOA. I built my daughter one a while back and I'll build another for her in the upcoming future.
