"Yellow Jacket" conversion for GT12 Supastox
Hi all, from across the pond. We've just started to get a few GT12 cars together at our club and have been practicing and racing them. Very fun cars!
Well I was kind of thinking about making a conversion "kit" for the SS. New chassis, pod, and various bits. But using the stock rear axle and front suspension. How do you guys think that would fit in the rules? So instead of me having to manufacture EVERY bit, it would be a conversion kit for the SS. Here's a render of the "Yellow Jacket". I've had it on the track and it runs very good.

I take it that you've seen the new Superstox GT kit that came out this week?
http://www.racing-cars.com/pp/Car_Sh...paStox_GT.html Also there is a roll damper conversion. With the new car much improving the old car, I'd pick one up, than look to apply your work to that. Here in the UK, the chassis must follow BRCA rules for 1/12th GT racing, so anything you do must conform to those rules if you wanted to make up a conversion kit for sale.

To be legal to run in BRCA affiliated race meetings a full rolling chassis kit has to be available, and that has to be available for sale for no more than £99.95. This means as a conversion that uses a different chassis it would not be legal for these events.
That doesn't mean it wouldn't be legal for other events or in other countries though. A full copy of the BRCA rules is at http://www.brca.org/sections/subsect...ologation/1142

Use the existing chassis and don't drill and additional holes then it would be legal.
Otherwise you must make a full kit available for below the price limit.
