If you pick it up and put it back on the vehicle does that get you a touch penalty and re position? | |

i think i know the answers to this but i wanna know for sure. if i make a roofrack with a lightbar incorporated in the design, do i get points for them both? also... there isnt really a definition on what makes a roofrack a roofrack. is what i have pictured cool? (imagine it sitting off the roof a bit) or should i add some crossbraces to it to make it a bit more racky. |

Question came up in another thread, does the .060 min thickness for styrene custom hardbodies only apply when they are vacuum formed?

The new 3D printing technologies, today allow the creation of metal pieces. In the case of metal printed bumper, or other accessories, must be paid as rules ? Material Data Sheet Example : Thank you for your answers |

In the video I saw the OB ribbon move, so it's a penalty. Quote:

...but won't give metal points for the above posted 3D bumper which is absolutely scale and likely weighs a ton? What's the intent of the rule here? I understand the idea that metal weighs more than plastic and points should be credited for the extra weight, but we're talking a metal to metal comparison. Let's not quash innovation. | |

I said "as of right now" since I don't know enough about 3D printing in metal to know if it is actually metal and what it weighs. I believe I also said we'd talk about it, so perhaps you can chill out 😳

No need to tell me to chill out. I'm just providing you with some ammunition when you go talk with all your other good ole boys. The poster has already supplied the metal content of that bumper... 60% stainless steel 40% bronze. Sure looks like metal to me...all 100% of it.

You have no idea the battles fought in the rules committee, the friend ships strained over the rules just so you can be a dick. Maybe like he said you should chill and let us figure it out. There are far more important items at the moment, I will sugest we add it to the agenda for discussion for next years rule set. Last edited by boob dude; 04-27-2017 at 08:54 PM. | |

I've got 2 rock lights up front and 2 headlights. No tail lights. Do I get any functional scale points? Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk |
