FG Wins US Nationals!!

[Tim]

Fg f-1 wins the nationals!!
For all those guys thinking the FG Comp car is not the way to go-- my FG Comp just took the win at the US Nat's-- against 2 RS5 cars and 4 sportline cars AND Luis's new car. Luis car DID run good-- but FG took the top 3 spots!! I built the car completely STOCK just like the FG manual--did not change anything but oil in the shocks and ran red springs all around with stiff sway bar settings and the car was MONEY!! FG cars are still good---RS5 might be better but not that day.
FWIW

PS--there is video of the cars on the GLARCRC.COM website -- for some reason they haven't published the F-1 finals ---but it's on the VSmodelsports page!

congrats. i love watching when the old tried and true can come right out of the box and beat the latest technology.

Congrats... Just like real racing the car and driver have to be matched to each other or they can't produce. Sounds like you had the better match

congrats on the win. I personally feel FG makes one of the best on-road cars around.
