QUESTION: Do you think that we should do a 190mm version of the Lexus LFA? It would have a few updates to the aero package as seen in the real world but would essentially be 90% the same, just narrower.
Thanks for you input and comments! Much apprecuiated.

I would love to see a 190mm version of the LFA body. It would also (more than likely) make the 2015 IIC 'Spec GT' body list.

I would like to try a 190mm Lexas. I had a 200mm one laying around on a drift chassis and gave it a try on the USGT car. It was very easy to drive, planted on the track but lap times were slower.
Please don't forget about us Detroit fans. I've been waiting on a C7(Stingray).
Thanks for your input.

Make a 190mm LFA if you must, however please keep making more 200mm as well. I want to use 3mm & 6mm offset wheels. This is what I like about this class, it's more scale looks, otherwise we may as well race TC.
Looking forward to my PFM-10 when they arrive.
Thanks for taking input and listening to the end users Dale!

I was so bummed out when I heard that Horizon (Vattera) got an exclusive on the C7 (in all of Corvette's formats - both race & street versions - in 1/10th scale) that I wanted to scream. Their exclusive may expire at the end of 2015 so maybe next year it'll be possible to do a PF version. Licensing has become a bigger issue than most people would ever believe.
But hey.....I've got all the measurements on the C7-R - I just need the legal "OK"

The C7 would be great, but the body Rob and I were talking about and know for a fact it handles great (and looks sweet) was the 2005 C6-R that you released back in the day. Soooo I know you can't do the C7 but what about the C6-R re-release or this in 190mm. If you know how popular the OLD version of the Tamiya NSX bodies are in the GT class because of how well they handle. This body is up there with that.

Even the WGT class is all wrong limited to a hand full of Sophia, Gianna and what have you. That class should be full of LM prototypes an other real life extremely fast cars, be a 2s system, but no, its held to those few semi good looking bodies and crippled in power as to not upstage the TC class. Sorry I don't mean to go off like this, and I maybe all wrong on many things but I feel the RC world is all wrong when a F1 car is slower than a 17.5 Mazda TC.
I'm excited for this USGT racing and I hope it builds momentum to correct what IMHO is wrong with the RC car universe. A round of 13.5t for GT cars!

Recently, they've allowed LMP bodies for WGT here in the UK, as long as they have split wings (no 12th scale style "wedge" bodies), let me tell you that people perk up and pay attention, and when they see the speed, it's quite the event!

Oh, by the way, Dale and Eric, if you'd bring back your beautiful Protoform Mulsanne, I'm sure we could do with some here...
