Will give that a look as well, like the look of it.

Speaking of which, and I apologize if this was already mentioned, but anyone running any "hatchback" looking bodies? My daughter seems to like the look of a few, including the mini cooper that her uncle has, curious if there is a body that fits and works well?

And lastly, do people every run VTA style bodies or is that another body type that is not allowed like touring types? As a kid, loved the smoky and the bandit movies so of course, love the car lol.

I am thinking this class is where we are going to start, especially as electronics are a bit more open and I can get some battery reuse (7200s from my Tekno SCT410) unless I am missing some limitation on that like VTA?
