1/14th, 1/16th noob question!

[adz2383]

Can someone explain how the phat bodies chunk and Carisma gt14 are classed as 1/16th scale when the losi 8ight is classed as 1/14th?

I ask because the BRCA dimensions for each class would suggest that the Carisma GT14 and Losi cannot compete against each other. Although both 4wd.


I'm looking at building my own 2wd 'home brew' micro buggy and can't work out which scale dimensions/ regulations I should be working to.

Can anyone shed some light on this please?

Cheers
