A question of Scale....
So..I have a 1:16th EXB-16 ... as the name suggests it's a 1:16th scale buggy.
So why do Carisma GT14-B's which by all accounts are a 1:14th scale (it's in the name) run in 1:16th heats in most events that I've read about? Is this just how it's done? Is that not like running 1:10th with 1:8th ?... bit unfair.. Do all main Micro scales run together ?... from 1:18th to 1:12th ? Just wondering. J

The gt14b is 16th scale, it is just the name, on all the literature it says 1:16
the two main scales raced are 1:18 & 1:16 and their races are seperate, apart froom 2wd (due to lack of entries) This refers only to nationals!

As Pete says, the GT14B is a 16th scale in the same way that a B44 is not a 44th scale

Interesting...
You'll have to excuse my confused state of mind...a few supplies still list it as 1:14th, which I thought it was originally when released CML themselves has it listed as both 1:14th and 1:16th on the same page... "Part #CA55768 Carisma GT14B Brushless Powered RTR 4WD 1/14th Scale Buggy with 2.4ghz Radio System - Black" Hence why I'm a little confused...  J

I have just asked CML if they could reword it to 1/16th scale rather than 1/14th scale in that case
Rest assured though that the GT14B is a 1/16th scale micro and races within the 1/16th 4WD class at our Nationals
