Sounds really interesting but waaaay too fast for me! F1's with 21.5's are fast...17.5 would be much more reasonable.

Also, I don't know of that many Prototype bodies available and stickers are pretty rare also. Please give examples, with pics and links...

Thanks,
Ned

aaaaaaaaattta boy! 17.5 or a good 27T would be more than enough. I still have deals on F1 cars. looking for a time to get there. Hard to beat an old F103 on carpet with foamsD-drive is still down for some reason. They have the zack project tires at a killer deal. and ship fast.

d-drive has a lot of bodies and sticker kits. plenty to choose from for them as does rcmart. also check F1 paintlab.tqrcracing in CA runs the prototype bodies as well with the F1 chassis. I think they make them run lights on them.

HELL YEAH I'm in!!!!

For those who are questioning our motor choice; the answer is simple.....The Class is Called PROTOTYPE. For those unfamiliar to what a prototype or LMP class car is: google it! In short: high traction: high downforce and stupid amounts of power. The real life counter parts of this class typically have upwards of 700hp. So suggesting anything with brushes is simply laughable. This is not going to be a "toy" class. With that said: this will be a giggle class.

Personally I would not suggest this class to first timers or those with poor eye hand coordination
