I thought, the new Lipo edition comes with the carbon?

I have raced a 12R5 for one season and will try the BMI now.
(Indoor, high bite carpet).
Somewhere i read the BMI is not competitive on carpet.
Has somebody owned both cars and can tell me where the main differences are?

Thanks...
The car is very competitive on carpet. We just dont bother investing a ton of money into the big races to flex our muscles. We had 1 driver take 2nd at Snowbirds last year with the car and it has made the top 10 ever since it was a prototype. I decided to put money into the product instead of feeding my ego.
