I'm going to be test fitting a couple Exabyte bodies on my e-converted Durango DNX408. Keep an eye out for pictures and details on the fitting.

Nice work K-man, the exabyte is a cool looking body. I've got one trimmed up for my rc8/teknov4 buggy. Just gotta find some time to paint it.......and finish wiring and tweaking the tekno kit....then rebuild the shocks and diffs....then buy new tires....does it ever stop?????????????

Love seeing all the great-looking FTW-equipped rides. Thank you all for your support for the FTW vision. A quick update on the SC body: Everything is finalized and we are tooling up for production. As the current fashionable phrase goes, its about to get real.

I have seen some people run B4 bodies on the Tamiya and they fit okay. I remember seeing a pic of a Night Fox on a TRF201 at a race in Europe last year, but I don't know where to begin to look for a link. If you do give it a shot, please share your findings.

Unfortunately, it doesnt look like there are any plans for another indoor track here in Austin. Looks like we should have an outdoor track open again here fairly soon, and hopefully it will be more 10th friendly than others. Heard the new surface will be a fairly high clay content, so maybe the 10th stuff will make a come back.
