The websites www.usrainfo.org and www.madera-race.com will probably have the information and contacts that you need.

Regards,

Do you mean really GIANT scale or "big and impressive but still fits in your car" scale? There are provisional rules for Goldberg Shoestring-size, 1/4 scale sport F1s posted at my site, http://www.home.earthlink.net/~sting...%20062602.htm.

These things use .91 two-strokes and go about 125 mph. There are 2 qualifying ARF airframes and at least 3 good engines to choose from (O.S., MVVS, Jett). Strict limits on fuel, props, wing thickness, etc., are already written into the rules ahead of time so you don't have to worry about "speed creep" making your investment worthless within 3 months.

Or if you're already an experienced racer you can custom-build your own Nemesis or something, but you'll still have to fly a good course in order to win. Sorry!

We are starting a new class in GS F1 this year. The same airframe but using a stock Zenoah GT-80 gas burner.
