die-laughing do you think you will be able to cut a motor mount for the HPI Rally coming out?
 
10/50 will work as long as we stick to the rules on -6 for Realistic exterior items and -8 for Functional items.

Chris, nice doc, I was working on the same in a different form, but your looks a lot better than mine. A couple items I found.

- Total allowed for Human Figures since you can have 2 needs to be 2, 3, 4, or 6. you only allow 2 or 3. Third vehicle only allows 1 or 2.
- Total for Exterior Items, each trail tool is worth -1 and you can have multiple. The sheet only allows one.
- you cannot delete a score if put in the wrong place as blank or 0 are not allowed entree.
 
As a side not on scoring, the Taco is the perfect example. If I take the Tuber score, -8, I cannot use the tube parts score. And I think that if it is a tuber, you have to take that -8.

for example, the taco has:

Tube Shock Mounts, front and rear -2
Tube Fenders front -1
Cage per row of seats -3
Roll Bar -2
Tube Bed -3

That is -12

So I think we need to agree, if it is a tuber, like Jasons Zuk and Jeep, My Taco, Brians JK and Ricks Wraithluse (sorry of I missed anyone) in that it has front, cab and rear tube structure, we take the -8. The other scores can only be used if you are only a partial tuber.

Do you want to agree on that or the opposite of that?

Because in the rules thread they talked about a wreckluse being allowed to count metal sliders so, I assumed i could count metal tube bumper/stinger, etc.

You can, but not roll bar, fenders, shock hoops, interior cage or tube bed. Bumpers, Stingers and Sliders were called out separately. I fixed my post.
 
My wrecktuber literally has tube fenders and a distinct tube bed/drop bed.

Man.. This is going to get confusing. Maybe we should start a scale points thread and post pictures of each of our rigs and decide whats ok and whats not.
 
I dont think tubers should be "punished" with a maximum of -8 but if its not a tuber its capable of getting more scale points..ya know?
 
Well, i got problems then. Cause i gave myself -8 for tuber then -this for bumper, -that for stinger, -this for tube fenders, etc. i got it all jacked up i guess.

That is exactly what I did. Well, almost. I did the -8 for tuber, then took credit for the front bumper, stinger and sliders.

On a whole different note, it is stunning to see what people think an SCX10 Honcho with basic upgrades are a shitty hardbody conversion are worth in the Classifieds. one guy had a pretty basic C2 Mog on an SCX10 chassis, his description is Tamiya unimog, axial roller, Tango wheels/Pluggers, interior, custom cab, full cage with dual spares, Matrix motor, rooster crawler, novak BEC, 645MG servo. He wants $750. I have seen multiple SCX10s with stock bodies and no tube work for $500+

Ya

I feel all the truck you guys talked about are tubers. If you look in the rules most other point do get added to tubers. I think just no shock points
