think the hotshot and the optima are bit older than 87, i also have an original lunch box..and hornet, but I would be a bit worried about the transmissions with brushless, added to that it is hard enough to keep the front end on the ground and get the box to go round a courner with the 540

What vintage car to buy??? Okay so in readyiness to race something at the Boughton Summer series I have been thinking about the cars I wanted as a kid, and now maybe, just maybe I can get one, but which one?? Thundershot, Super Sabre, Terra Scorcher, Supershot, Hotshot, Bigwig, these are the ones I really liked. Anyone got any opinions on any of them? Or anymore I have missed?

Just a quick question to guages people's opinions. How would people feel if the summer series at Boughton was a control tyre series? Just for argument sake if we picked a manufacture and maybe a type (Pin, spike etc), and left compounds up to you? We are not saying this is fact, but just trying to find out if people would like this idea to cut down on the cost for the need to hold X amount of tyres in X patterns. Please let us know your opinions?
Many thanks.

Having said that I think the majority of racers would equally be happy using what they already have glued up rather than having to buy a specific tire for the event. All depends on what you were thinking of as a control tire. I can't think of a 10th off roader that wouldn't have Schumacher Mini Spikes of Ballistic Buggy Spikes in their box, but something like Dboot or Fastrax may well put racers off as it's just something else to buy. Stotfold winter series is run with Schumacher Mini Spikes and of course the national series has a control tire on the rear wheels for each different venue. Which are always successful.
