Mine is fixed in my reply above

FatA$$ Toyota · 05-22-2006, 10:36 AM

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

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?

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.

Po' riggity · 12-30-2008, 02:58 PM

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

Lil' Rich · 12-31-2008, 08:51 AM

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.

DRM · 01-13-2009, 08:16 AM

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

mtbrjon · 02-05-2009, 03:10 AM

Working on getting the site back. Stay tuned.
