The Formula Toy class is the cheapest form of competitive rock crawling available. Also, a Formula Toy doesnt give up its trail-ability to compete. A F-Toy makes a perfect trail rig for the weekends and seating up to 4. Being that its a spec class, the playing field is even accross the board. Its truly a drivers/spotters class.

Shouldnt this be made a sticky or whatever you call it to keep it at the TOP.???????

I am seriously researching doing a 4 seater in one of these and have to keep pulling it up.

Just wondering since the Toyota one is stuck at the top.

Thanks,

Aaron

ttt I don't know why this isn't a sticky. I guess having a mod in this forum would be to much to ask:confused:

ya i know. i have asked to have a moderator or for me to be one so i can take the time to make a nice faq. but they dont want us to have a moderator:shaking:

Here's my buildup.:D

Here is mine, with lots of pictures. (http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=628164)

The Official Formula Toy Site is:
http://www.formulatoy.org


I guess that site is gone...

Where can a newb who is interested get a copy of the class rules on vehicles and things like that?

aren't listed on www.We-rock.cc yet?

uhhh did someone let the formulatoy.org domain expire?
Scott

Scott

Yup Mark let it go.... I tried my best to get it but some squatter company got in the way.

I figure werock will make a sub site off theirs for ftoys.

why let it go? seems cheap to at least keep the domain?

Formula toys are currently as integrated into the site as any other class with the exception of the rules which we are straightening out right now. (Clarification for the most part only)

Once I get the rulebook back, I will post it and let you guys know.

Anyone have the old rules they can send me, so I can at least start reading to get a general idea?

Working on getting the site back. Stay tuned.

Looking for a spotter for this year's FTOY season. I am located 20min north of Saltlake city,ut. Currently working on FTOY chassis. Could use some help as well finishing.

Have already paid for this year's WEROCK entries.

I have radios and all the gear.

Are the rules available yet?

I am also having troubles finding rules and regs. How are you supposed to build a rig to competition specs if you can't figure out what they are? :confused:

Jeez, guys, that's a pretty sad excuse--look harder!!
The rules haven't changed significantly in over 3 years....and in that time, only rear discs and EFI were allowed. Every build thread discusses the rules.

what are you guys with stock RE motors doing with your harness....sending them off to be weeded through or unplugging and taping it back I would like to rid alot of unused plugs on my RE (windshield wipers, door lights, blinkers, heater lights and controls......all sorts of stuff that is not being used just searching and thought this would be good place to ask.....any info would be awsome thanks

I had my buddy Phil weed about 3/4 of the wires out for me!!!!:D he's way smarter wireing wise than i am!!!!!:laughing: and the ls1 thats going in it the guy i got the motor from did a harness for me for that motor!!!!

:nuke:;) Hobie know what he's talkin about!!!!:D

Because if the suspension? Frame height? Wheelbase?

because of having non toyota parts on the rig...per the F-Toy class rules...

is there gonna be any werock events in texas? my f-toy has been in werock but not since i have owned it. i would love to enter a few events. my buddy-ex werock competitor-david egger- wants to help me out if i can get in!:D

I held my breath on that one till I passed out and woke up on the floor.

I get that, I was referring to why it would do so poorly in unlimited.

Competing against moon buggys a F/X Toy wouldn't have a chance...i suppose
if you built an x-chassis with all the right parts you might be able to put up a good fight....:D

Anything happening with the Formula Toy class?

I haven't heard anything. Used to be 5-6 F-Toy's running in W.E. Rock but this year I think everyone decided to ditch the toy stuff and join the 'go-fast V8 crowd'.
