Hi Paul, I asked the same question on a previous thread about this GB, and it was concluded that "yes", part of the body colour is green and so therefore it counts - even if it's only a small part of the overall scheme. The green isn't really a sponsor "logo" or "name", so it makes sense that it counts.
For the same reason I included my uncompleted 2005 RB1, as it's got some splashes of yellow on it.
Looking forward to seeing some progress threads guys!

Hey Grumps, yeah it's certainly open to a little interpretation. I was going on discussion in the previous GB thread where this was brought up specifically. At the time, what it came down to was that if there was an area of the bodywork which had a colour topcoat of green or yellow, then it counted. There was no talk of the 'predominant' colour.
I don't really mind either way of course, but then we've not really nailed down the exact details. At least my main build is green, and the others I just want an excuse to finish.
If there's others of you who feel strongly on this issue then say so. If you'd prefer that the main/predominant body coulor should be yellow or green, please point this out. I'm sure noone will really kick up a stink about it, and if we don't hear from you then we'll never know what the majority wants!
My 2c is that if the car has about 25% of the body coloured green or yellow then it's in (and I think the 2007 RA107 counts as being in). That would mean my RB1 build is essentially out, and the Leyton House would be marginal.
By the way, who is the person chairing/running this GB? emsquared is that you?
Can you chime in with some "basic" official rules in this regard, and perhaps post them for guidance?
