No plans for them right now; 3D's will be the next tire in the coming months.

No; that's our newest/current wheel.

Nothing yet...

Nothing for the E-buggy planned right now.


Will there be any newer Illuzion Hi-flow bodies coming out?.....or did you guys stop making them?

and how does the Hi-Flow fit on the RC8Be?....(w/4S battery)
No plans for updated Hi-Flow buggy bodies.

Hi-Flow body hits the battery.

I'm building up a SC10 and was wondering what's the deal with the bodies. I see there are multiple bodies available and thats awesome that we have options. Last time I ran a body that covered the fenders of the car was in touring and they definitely affected the way the car handled.

Is there some where I can read about how each of the JC bodies affect the truck's handling? I'm sure one of them has to be the "racers favorite" by now.

Also is there anything else I need to know about mounting them or which cutouts I should open up and which I should leave closed?

Thanks!

It's short course it doesn't matter! :lol: JK!! Get a high flow body and cut out all the vents to elimenate the parachute effect!! Just dont go crazy and cut out the windshield you will loose all your downforce!! I think Maifield is the only one that can tell which vents are removed and which aren't!!

I have this one on order. I have the original stock body but it looks like swiss cheese to get good airflow.

The racer favorite seems to be the Hi-Flow. The cutouts depend on the track and jump conditions.

-Racing small indoor tracks with steep jumps; I prefer not cutting out the rear louvers.

-Big outdoor tracks with long distance jumps; I prefer to cut out all the vents in the front and half of the rears. Most of the time I cut the lower 3 louvers in the rear and the small vents in the roof-line.
