I think I understand where Defro is coming from. But maybe with the lack of shows in your area, you havent seen many rookie cars latley. I think the install portion of the rules for rookies is good. Just enough to score a safe car.

I hope you get a few IASCA shows in your area. I think you will see how it works better then.

Anyway, Julians car is as solid as it needs to be for his class. And from what I hear it sound pretty damn good.

Dude you seriously need to get into another hobby - read the IASCA book and look at the score sheet - It's in black and white. Your eyes must be off or something...When I go to amateur I will be making changes to the battery section but for now this is sufficient.
In the future how about pointing out problems to my install or others in a manner that is respectable, instead of being a know it all and try to suggest rule changes that suit your concerns.

Fozzz, MTT and ICEBIRD88 know that I'm picky and the battery would of been changed before SBN but for rookie it's not worth the time and money!

Off to SBN

This is a Public Forum... "NewsFlash".. Its of Interest to Anyone that wants to participate!

According to the Iasca Rulebook I have, he is well within the Guidlines for Rookie Class. Do you have a "SPECIAL" Rulebook??
