Worth the money or just stick with the standard plastic deck?
I know it will take some flex away but in some case this could be good.......
My thoughts on this is that it's more of a carpet setup to utilize that chassis.
Because the car is so light in the back end, it really benefits from any flex it gains from the chassis. Most of the suspension loading occurs in the front with this car, due to the weight distribution and design...having a stiffer chassis all around will likely reduce traction in outdoor conditions. (similar to how the f1 guys cut the upper deck when running on tarmac)
