So whats the total height of the car cutting on the normal body lines? Maybe in the 105mm range?

Oh wow! I really like the shape of that. Easily the best onroad body from McAllister that I have seen to date.

you guys do realize that all the new World GT bodies are starting to morph into 1/12 wedge bodies, right?

Looks similar to the proto sophia gt. I am not a fan of the direction world gt is taking...its kinda defeating the purpose it was made for.

Also specific to this body what's with the huge splittle looks like something you would find on a rubber touring car not a foam body

just making an observation. I thought the point of this class was to be able to run all the cool 200mm sports car bodies out there. It's taken what, six months?, for the bodies to evolve into this.

If you ask me, its not THAT far off from the original car's design. Aside from the Sophia, all the bodies for the class look like something you would see in American Le Mans GT1 class. But again, just my thoughts.

/edit: Thanks for posting that Rob, thats exactly what I was going to do :P
