Thought I would start a thread about Vintage Tran-am racing or VTA. It took me a while to figure it all out. But basically it’s a class of racing that uses 1/10 scale 4WD touring car chassis with a 1960s/1970s muscle car body and a 25.5 turn motor and rubber tires. The spirit of the rules are to get vintage cars that looks the part driving at a relatively slow or at least scale speed. Spec class so it’s a driver class as all the cars are similar.
These are the rules.

But what is available ? Who makes what and what is the best rig.
I’m looking at kits like Yokomo and X-Ray that are on the high end price wise and also kyosho and others that are much less.
I can’t start racing this class till next year. But want to start gathering information.
Plus I had a bad ass 71 Firebird so this body is a first choice.
