I will sweeten the deal by donating to the winner a 2004 Mustang body and body kit still in package, tire upgrade kit in package, any body from my RC Garage (including customs) except for the 65 mustang, which was a gift from my wife, and my first XMod. I will also give the winner an Evo or Gen 1 chassy, their choice.
I will also include a stage 2 motor upgrade for the chassy, as well as any spare parts/body kits I have for that body. If on the off chance I win, the prize will go to second place. |
i guess i just got the motivation i needed to start project widebody supra drift...
|
hmm, just out of curiousity, are we aloud to change our car after we have submitted one lets say, i enter a skyline, if i decide to change it to my civic, can i change it?(before the ending time period ofcourse)

I have a question about the competition also. How much modification can be done and it still be called an 'XMod'? A project I have in mind for the competition would require multiple motors and boards, heavy chassy modification, reworking the steering servo, etc. It would still be mostly XMod electronics and motors, but the chassy would in no way resemble a traditional chassy when I am done.
So to sum it up, is it still an XMod if the electronics have been 'Frankensteined' together, with a scale model body? No biggie if not, I just want to clear it up before I begin work, or start a new project instead ;) |

IMO i say yes, but not sure bout what the mods will say |
well considering it's OPEN CLASS doesn't that mean you can pretty much enter anything that is 1/24-1/28 scale?

dang, forgot that i have my rc18 for a sec, been put away so long i havnt been seeing it,
hopefully next comp will be open class too or the one after that, i like open class lmao, either way my shelfqueen should stand pretty close next to that sexy propulse :lol: would be crazy if i win tho, that propulse is pretty friken sweet with those rims and that body |
Open class means any scale RC vehicle that isn't stock, i.e. if you have a custom heli you can enter that... I threw my ProPulse into the mix.
|
i know i know, i had forgotten bout my rc18 though.. if i hadnt forgotten, i woulda entered it

Sure as long as it isn't stock :)
The point of an open class is to get as many people as possible to enter, have a fun comp and ramp up everyone's excitement for the next one.... |
I am very disturbed about a pro-pulse or any other non Xmod in the open class COTM thread... It just turned me off to my favorite comp... It has for as I always rememeber it... Xmods, modded to any degree, and most of the confusion about what makes it an Xmod was already brought up in past COTM discussion threads... any NON Xmod should have a totally seperate Comp. I am very turned off now to this comp.. And no offense Big, I love the Pro-pulse... but the point is to encourage Xmod builds, and whats the point, if any scale can enter.... we just sent our hobby backwards, and we love to see those original Xmod builds in the Open Class COTM.... Im very sad right now...

As for everyone else please pay attention to the new rules.... modified XMODs only for this open class competition. |
Can an entry be a car that has been a project for awhile? I'm talking about my "project resurrecting civic". It's not completed yet, but IF I get it done in time, can I enter that?
