I've found that the dna is good for mod but to much for stock. I still like the parma for stock and 19T.

I am by no means one of the faster guys on the carpet (foams) but I have had luck with the Mazda 6 body, I have a Alfa but did not like it, I am however thinking of trying it with my new set-up a friend did for me.

i like how the flames make a skirt that almost envelopes the cab. if i didn't think flames were the single least original scheme ever, i might copy that sucker. then again, my rattle can technique might not be too desirable here.

Wow, that's a nice looking body. I prefer its style over the Alfa and the DNA. I'm glad to hear it handles like an improved Alfa, the DNA didn't do it for me.

what is the difference between the std and the lightweight?

matt

It's pretty close to an ounce lighter. Might be more around the 20 gram range. Depending if you use the light wing or std wing.

Well I'm here at the Novak and it looks like the PARMA Mohawk body is the hottest carpet body. Currently it is producing the quickest lap times at the race in all the foam classes (Mod, Stock, 19T). Many of the nations top drivers have choosen the PARMA Mohawk for competiton this weekend the event.

Thats a nice looking body!
will there be a chance that there will be a 200mm version coming out??

ShaunMac

Heard any other drivers opinions reguarding the Parma Mohawk compared to the older Parma Alfa?

Are many racers still using the Alfa?

Seems like 95% of the buzz on this thread has not really answered your question too accurately. The results from the last 3 major carpet events (including todays NOVAK U.S. Touring Car Championships) are all pointing toward the Protoform DNA1 (w/ the foam/carpet combo) and the Mazda 6 (w/the rubber/carpet combo) being..... very good.

Rod: the all new MazdaSpeed 6 #1487-00 should definitely be worth a test - since most pro racers who've had a chance to test it with a rubber/carpet combo say it's even better than the older Mazda 6. (easier to drive quick laps)
In 8 days the options for you racers will increase once more with the official release of the Pf DNA2 designed specifically for rubber tire racing on carpet as well as paved surfaces.
Both new bodies, the #1487-00 MazdaSpeed 6 as well as the DNA2 are ROAR approved.

Thanks Dale,
I was prepared to go with the Mazda 6 and your advice along with a little more research made it easy. I will have to get my LHS to get the new one to go with the one I have.

The mohawk is the real deal on the carpet, however probally more suited for stock/19t many of the top guys also used it in Mod at the novak race this week.
