If you want to get serious a Kit built plane should not be a TG plane. You did not shape the ribs, bulkhead, formers & so on. you assembled parts that someone else built. then you detailed it. So where does that differ from a severly bashed ARF. I have the utmost respect for Scratch Builders & knew one of the best years ago & think only a Truly Scratch built plane should have a shot @ TG. Just my opinion.
