Default cyclone

Hoping for some encouraging input on this car. I'm finally comfortable enough with my own driving and tuning skills to try and upgrade from my old Tamiya chassis. I'm going to stick with belt, and it has come down to the t2 and the cyclone. I'm not entirely sold on the T2 since it's a brand new car, and I've heard grumblings of incorrect tolerances.

Long story short, I almost took the plunge on the Cyclone last weekend, before an employee at my local track accused the car of being "way too flexible". Claims that a Cyclone owner showed him how the car could almost twist 90 degrees without too much effort? Ummmm, sounds ridiculous, but there were no Cyclone owners around to dispute the claim. I'm jumping on here to see if anyone can shed some light on this rumor. Thanks for any help/input. BTW, $400 is a significant investment for me.
