Fernando Mendez is using a Mugen MBX6 conversion. I know he has a Serpent as well so I will find out.

Ok I just confurmed he is using a Mugen conversion. He and Alejo made the chassis and the shock towers. It uses some pieces from DM1 but almost everything is Mugen.

This is really good for the GT class though! Mugen Serpent and Xray, that's what I'm talking about. I'd love to see see some action out of the Team C group too.
