WHERE TO FIND YOUR CARS FOR THE 2008 IMCA RACES

All prices at January 8, 2008

One can assemble a RTR winning model car for less than € 220.00! Only a fool pays six times such price. On "pimping up" a body one just wastes money. At IMCA we are racers, not just modellers compensating their lack on pure driver's talent by making hyper detailed bodies to win more concourse points. IMCA fully rejects the principle of concourse points for all INDIVIDUAL rankings. Even for a kid the price of a RTR model car must be affordable.

Motor Modern MoMo X-SW06

Interesting chassis with non-adjustable ground clearance, only to be used with 24mm high front wheels and 26mm high rear wheels. Not compatible with art. 6.2.e for Nismo Z cars and not compatible with art 7.2.e for FIA GT cars. Exclusively made for the German market. It should be interesting if an IMCA version could come on the market (for 26mm high fronts and 27.5mm rears). Very low centre of gravity and adjustable lateral weight sets. Two holes in the piece just behind the front axle allow that the motor wires cannot rub the front axle. The MoMo X-SW will not be homologated by IMCA. As soon as Motor Modern releases an IMCA version ho-mologation will follow.
