All it seems I was a little strict on my re-write of the rules after the complaint about what type of RC cars can be entered into an open class competition, Open Class competitions on XMS have traditionally allowed small scale RC cars to be entered, i.e. XMODs / Mini-Z's / etc, so if you have a custom Mini-Z that you want to enter please feel free.

i think tahts a good idea, i think open class should be for 1/24 scale and smaller(so anything from a mini-z to a micro-t, to a custom made car)
and lets say everything bigger than 1/18 scale is considered as another comp?

and just to say
we all loose :(, Dr. Kustom wins :D. The End. :lol:

IMHO you have never spoken anything more true lmao j/k :lol:

Well, if you go on price then yes and he did a beautiful job with the body but I believe there may be some competition coming as all entries are not in yet. I'm going to enter just for fun. Who knows what may happen. And good luck to all.

i posted mine for it's realism and shelfqueenness, but dr custom beat the realism part by a long shot :( but his hasnt been a shelf queen as long as mine has :-p, unless that body has been sitting there for over 6months, and he just decided to paint it lol
but i know from now im not gonna come first, or second... third, well if im lucky

i guess i'll enter. just gonna get my paint work done in a few days and i'll be rockin' it.

Final day to enter guys.

My entry
 

There will be an accompanying video as soon as I can get my camcorder working, hopefully tonight. I redesigned a Sturmtiger Tank to look much more steampunk. The tank in back (with the smoking smiley face ;) ) is actually a functional pressure tank, allowing my Xmod to shoot flames up to 4 feet. As soon as I can get a video I will show you. I will only explain the custom mechanisms used to moderators that need the information to confirm it is working, and my own design. I will not share the information with anyone else, as I do not want any teenagers building potentially lethal exploding XMods, and I will not be held legally responsible for anyone blowing a limb off in an attempt to reproduce my work. :P

EDIT: The flame thrower in action. Its hard to see from the angle, but it had a 1-2 foot flame. Its capable of much more, but I was too cold to keep messing with it :P
