Body in the pic is the Protoform P37-N. Some drivers are also using the Protoform SRS-N.

Team PROTOform's Jilles Groskamp, reigning Electric TC World Champ, is on top of the charts through final practice at the Nitro Worlds with a PROTOform P37-N! I take this from Protoform Facebook Page !

Thanks, thought it was just the mortal drivers that copied the immortals lol! And run what the fastest are running, but it looks like even the immortals copy eachother!! I'm guessing that jilles/hara were extremely fast, cars looked really good with the p37 and everyone else pulled there's out!!

I agree, but on day 2 vid heat 10......meen vjack looked faster than all from corner to corner......i kept telling a fellow racer of mine that the srs is not the fix all body, its to darty for me, doesn't roll thru the corners well, for my driving style it almost feels like drag brake.....suits his tho because he uses drag brake sometimes......will have to give the 37 another go, just seems like when new bodies come out, we automatically forget about what we were running prior, i haven't seen a p37 in over a year locally!!

I still have a DNA 3.0 which I know it seriously out of fashion now but in the wet, nothing else I've tried goes better..

The Blitz RS4 is great in lower traction situations too, which the worlds won't have obviously cause there's 150-200 cars racing around all day.

I prefer the RS4 to the SRS-N which I don't think works for my driving style.

The majority of racers are opting for the PROTOform P37 over the SRS. Lemieux, Hagberg and Pietsch are a few who have stuck with the SRS. A few guys (Balestri, Spataro) are running P37's with the headlight decals of the SRS, creating a little confusion at first glance

The track in Bangkok is extremely high grip and high speed, which suits the reduced downforce and drag that the P37 offers, opposed to the ultra-aggressive downforce and handling of the SRS.
