FEATHERWEIGHT CHALLENGE Series-II?
The rules should prohibit stock models which would eliminate the FTE controversy. All cars would have FTE axles (unless there's something better) on various bodies.
Some here don't have the ability/desire to modify cars. Prohibiting 'stock' cars would mean less of the fine people here on Redlinederby getting to race with us. I say the more the merrier!
Maybe someone will want to start a modified/altered only race or series.
i think this will be a good test... if the non FTE stockers beat the non FTE modds, and the stock FTEs win over the modded FTEs , or visa-versa... then we will need extra class[s], for now go modds go !
I'm hoping to send only mods this time! I just hope they all magically get faster over night cause they're all kinda slow at the moment!
little trick i use is to leave CHOCOLATE milk for the elves...
Would high speed wheels fall into the FTE or Non FTE division?

Non FTE I'd say. They're just a gimmick anyway.

I agree with WorpeX (at least until they start winning ).
Is there anybody out there that thinks they can build a non FTE car that will beat a FTE car? I mean beat the FTE cars that people will enter in the series.
That's what I thought.
I.M.O. a non fte might beat 1 fte, but not many more races than that...
.still narrow, large diameter F T E's with a wide track are hard to find [ lucky carl, that 2006 yellow '69 vette has 'em ]
Are you f'n serious Smitty . . . giving away my speed secrets like that!!!
