Team Titan and Blitz bodies

Did some testing with the Blitz ISF, RS4, and the Chevy this week end. Low to medium traction track similar to Fort Myers. No setup changes between bodies. DLS, no rear sway bar.
RS4= Very stable and balanced, good steering. Reminded me of a stratus but with a lot more steering. Stuck!!! Good straight line speed.
ISF= Less stable but very quick into the corners. More steering than RS4,excellent high speed steering. Less down force, straight line speed is ballistic! "Possibly my new favorite"
Chevy= Stable, balanced, lots of down force front and rear. Corner speed is excellent but I felt I lost some straight line speed. Felt lazy. This body will glue your car to the track.
I later made chassis adjustments with the Chevy, stiffer springs front and rear. No longer lazy(thanks D-Man).

Hi Racers,
Well this weekend I tested some bodies again. Blitz knows the need for a body that competes with the Chevy at a better price. They sent me a Sab to test, based on some recommendations from the drivers they have. I tested at the Fort Myers track and think they have found what they need. I tried the Chevy, ISF and new Sab, since those bodies seem to give the fastest laps time for me. First I ran the ISF. Very stable, lacked apex steering and was consistent. Then I tried the Sab, went 3 tenths faster and was very easy to drive. My laps stayed within 2 tenths every lap. Than I ran the Chevy. Was able to go 1 tenth faster on 1 lap, but the time vary much more, about 4 tenths. Knowing I have access to all the bodies I want drivers to know I can use what ever body I want. I will say for the racers out there that you should at least try the Sab if you are looking for a equal or better body than the Chevy at a better cost. At the moment the Sab has not been legalized, but I will find out how long it will be. If you have any questions just ask.

For me the Cruze is the best Blitz sedan body out now. It gives good steering, but is very stable. The SRC versus the Blitz body is a personal feel. I ran both back to back and feel the SCR has a little more initial turn in, but than gets less stability. The Cruze from Blitz has a better balance and with the Capricorn I am able to get the steering I like, so I enjoy the Blitz better. If you have a car that pushes really bad going in than you might feel different. Just have to try and see. For now I prefer the Cruze. Until the next best thing comes out, hehehe

Are you able to share some more details regarding the characteristics between the Blitz Cruiser, the S93 say compared to the protoform p56 n. What would one expect back to back.
Other than what is written on the Titan web site have you recieved any more feedback from Designers/testers.
Tommy I will be using/testing the Cruiser and s93 probably at the Serpent tour if im allowed to attend. Hope you will be racing nitro.

It has reached the downunder so I imagine that the rest of the world has had it for some time now. The row boats take long time to reach our shores.
Ill Be playing with these two bodies this year but with two bubs under the age of 3 ill be doing more nappy changes than tyre changes for quite some time if you know what I mean.
All the best at the worlds. well be rooting for you, mabe I wont tell you what that means in Australian.
