Thanx for the props...
I have to admit, the topplate does flex just a little bit but only if you put real force on it. Overall, with the new thick lower, the rearpod is really strong and rigid.

Ehmm... THAT doesn't work with IRS podplates. The only podplate that you can use to do what you say is the CRC #3340 podplate. IRS podplates do not accept ride height adjusters on both sides. It may fit but it won't flush into the motorplate as is does on the diff side.
If you do so, the left podplate will have the ride height adjuster on the inside and that will not work.
Take a look at my P235-SE. That is also a good solution on how to make an upper podplate...

Roller
Complete, with stock lower plate and handmade upper plate. Ready to test. Still have not been able to hook up with my machinist to get the lowers made... patience...
Pic of motor wires clearance and routing. The current layout doesn't cause any binding or tweak whatsoever even with 12ga motor wires. Best angle I could get...
Hopefully get the body painted tomorrow and get it to the track!

Should be first test of the whole chassis this weekend after testing the front end only previously
Currently for this test hack I am running RC18 shocks front and rear, these will be changed later to something else.

I've got a slightly off-topic question for you. What brand wheels are on this car? (in the photo) Where did you get them?
Thanks - Dale

To answer your question, the wheels are Xceed brand foams. Amain.com carries them, along with other places.
Thanks for continuing to produce the P905B body! Any chance you have another 235mm body in the works? I have a Protoform Nissan P35 NIP that I wouldn't mind seeing reproduced.

Dale, any chance you can produce the medium down force 905? The high down force produces to much down force for most tracks
