how do the above "peak performance" TC bodies compare in performance to a good GT body such as the Protoform Vittoria? It is mega looking and i'd like to run it - is it a disadvantage to run this body in TC class? I get that it's a GT body and not for TC class but the thing is most of the "TC" bodies also look quite exotic and some are similar in theme to this (although this has more scale proportions which in my views avoid the ugly factor).

Hyper was in stock at my LHS so pulled the trigger. Looks pretty nice and I will be running stock.

$36.50 for a body?
Get whatever is on sale! That’s the best.

What’s the consensus on the JCon AOne2 vs the DogBollox and Twisters? Trying to support my local black carpet hobbyshop but they’re not able to get the DB and Twisters.
They can get the Bitty HR as well if anybody has had any luck with that.

- Straights: The A2R changed long directions very quickly, meaning any corrections on throttle are sensitive, while the LTC-R was more forgiving, and felt more planted.
- Sweepers: Again, the A2R showed its higher responsiveness, giving it a very lithe, precise feel. It has a "carving" feeling while turning, and the LTC-R felt more hover-ey, like some have described the twister on this thread a while back. A2R was like a scalpel, LTC-R like a spoon.
- Tight turns: Scalpel vs swimming donut, the A2R is noticeably faster in corners but more nervous as well. The LTC-R felt like a sponge, again more forgiving.
- Chicane: The A2R shines here, the precise response compared to the LTC-R means you can stick closer to a straight line through rather than "bounce" around with the LTC-R's more rounded responses to steering adjustments.

I am getting annoyed at the frequent breakage of TC bodies. One may say "don't hit - simple". Yeah but I don't control how others drive and some times it is inevitable.
I have tried many 0.7mm bodies, latest and older versions, but all cracked / broke the front lip or the rear after 3 batteries, most. I have heard, shoe-goo / carpet glue does the trick but unfortunately the ones here in Saudi Arabia didn't actually do anything, instead made the body heavy. The ones that didn't crack, without any glue, are the GT bodies even after 10 batteries. Must be the fact they are 0.8mm.
My question; finally: What options are available for 0.8 or 1.0mm TC bodies? Preferably newer versions, please.
We drive on a medium sized flowing track with 13.5T and 17.5T motors.
