Did they teach you how to spell yet?

Sounds like you said two different things...:rolleyes:

Anyways, back to topic...
Would you guys say the same about the 1/18 sized versions of the Mazda and Alfa? I like the Mazda better, personally.

Yeah, I thought maybe the comment about it sucking period was a lil harsh so I clarified it a bit....Sorry, when I get the choice of racing carpet or asphalt I usually choose carpet....I admit the statement was a lil biased but I think it sucks on the carpet

BTW: I'm going to give the MG a try...If it handles anything like the old Stratus I think I'll like it. The old stratus had some okay downforce but felt stable & good thorugh the turns.

Done my maz 6
 

Mine all set, thanks wombat grafix

you're in aus, so if you go pickup a copy of the latest racing lines it contains an article in which 10+ bodies are tested and briefly reviewed w/ lap times by mr abbott.

worth a look.

i know i posted this before but it seemed to have got swallowed by other posts.

does anyone know where i can buy a parma alfa in the UK?

also what are your opinions on the parma alfa compared to the stratus 2/aero 2?

thanks
matt

WRX: looks good ;)

BTW: Heres my new MG (got the body already painted off E-bay for a cool $25)

Heres the pic:

one of the best bodies i have use is the HPI areo 2 its got everything you want form a body shell

yea but hpi body are pretty thin comparded to the pro-line/ protoform bodies. i had one of my friends put a calipers to each body (not painted) and the pro-line/protoform is if i remember right 3 or 4 thousands thicker(dont quote me just becuse we did this a year ago) and that the hpi bodies due to there thin shell make it easier to crack, but its a personal prefrence and if u like the aero 2 then stick with it, i prefere the TL alfa, proto alfa2.0,and the stratus 2.0 and the mazda 6. i think out of trying them all i found that some work better depending on the track and its conditions and wether ur runing foams or rubber tires.

my .02 cents lazyboy

I think you can´t really say what´s the best body.
First of all it depends on the car. For me it seems each body doesn´t work the same with each car.
When I bought my first Stratus 2.0 I was using a TC3 that time and I found the Stratus didn´t work for me as I always had a loose rear end with it. Than I bought an EVO3 and tried the same Stratus 2.0 again and it worked awesome. Since then it´s my favourite body for the EVO3.

Beside this, setup and personal preference also will have an influence for the choice of body.

LMAO...Same here....loose on the Tc3...

I just got my E3 & gave the Strat away :lol:

Parma Alfa...the best looking and most realistic on the market...awesome handling too :)

Drive something you like to look at, and forget all the aerodynamic Crap. Bet some of the top drivers in the world could win with a dump truck body on a TC chassis....

Matt, you could go to Parma's website and send them an email asking what shops in the UK are importing the body.

good idea doug:lol:
