what does this qualify as?

[demonoid369]

posted here since this place gets most views and probably most are also the ones going to the comp or no more than i do lol so some have seen my rig I'm trying to build(emphasis trying lol) and i think its possible for it to be done before the 2012 scale comp/ttc here in oregon(mainly the ttc in canby) but I've noticed most rigs go by tire size/body size. and most run 1/10 to 1/8 which paired with tire size seems to fit realistically with its class size(small tire,c1-big tire,c3). but what about a rig like mine? its i do believe a 1/6 scale newbright f150. and the only way to make it scale is with a 2.2 wheel but then i do believe it would be classified as a c3 but its built and looks stock like it is. or does it matter for the ttc? mainly asking is this: for the size of my rig and all that, can i run it at the ttc in canby on the 30 of September?

TTC, yeah, although with that sized body you are going to have struggle. You should really have put this in the event section as that is where it matters. I'm moving it there.

Short answer, yes it is a Class 3 rig (with different, legal scale tires). You can enter it in the TTC, but you are going to get your ass handed to you if it gets in. Cool rig, but more of a "fun" truck than a competitive Class 3 rig.

thats why i was asking because by tire size yes its class 3 but by view point it would pass as a daily driver/weekend warrior kind of rig like a class2 or 1. but i do plan on making it a truggy or something Similar so it might just be able to hang possibly getting things in the works, need tires so that will be soon
