Im a fan for it, yeah it will probably look like a truggy now, but thats not all bad, i liked when truggy and stadium bodies were similar, looked like a 2wd stadium on roids. The other 10 scales are doing it why not.

That would be freakin sweet! Wish the other companies would do it for all of us non-associated drivers!

Reason I ask is Im looking at making molds to vacuum form some bodies up, namely for the RT5 (since I own one...) and was just going to see if others would want them as well

Most of the stadium truck bodies mount close to the same so if you can make one that will fit most of the brands I think it will do well.

I'll have to start some sketches and possible cad drawings for the bodies and maybe start working on the plaster mold for the body this weekend.
