Hi i used the f104 pro kit standard body with the option sidepods and 3 racing wings though the rear one i've lowered about 12mm for a more scale look.

To lower the wing i've just re drilled the lower mounting holes and then trimmed the bottom right hand end plate so it clears the spur gear (it also moves it forward slightly).
as for durability i've only raced it once since building it and i had no probs,the 3racing wings do seem to flex alot more than tamiya though. The gold wheel nuts are off ebay.

The rear wing holds up well, and is pretty flexible. I found cutting some foam out to fill in the underneath of the wing support helps. Held in with tape it cut back any wing wobbling no end

Here are some YouTube videos of F1 races at Mike's Hobby Shop from last Saturday. Everybody was racing with solid rear axles. Two cars had foam tires, the rest had rubber tires.

Hey guys...just got my gear adapter for my F104 so I can put my 21.5 motor in. What would be a good starting gear ratio running Pit Shimizu tires on a track about 120' by 50'.
