Please post the pic you're asking about, or even just a link to said pic. I'm quite curious but can't see it having been a reality IMHO.
I know the difference between nitro and electric. Go on neobuggy and take a look.

I'm sure you do - did someone imply you don't? I did just check out Neobuggy and couldn't find Tebo's nitro car with the electric body, hence the reason I specifically asked to see the pic of the car/body in question.

Thanks for the links guys! Gotta love being absolutely 100% incorrect - me that is. Have to mention though, the fuel tank cutout looks just horrible, completely square edged, too long and just kinda looks a bit agricultural to me. Much prefer the nitro shells, but that's just my personal predilection.

I thought maybe it drove differently with the E body that he preferred. I'm surprised he did it just for the air filter. The air filter fits fine under the nitro body too.

What I noticed between normal front hex / narrow rear hex (set up 1) and normal front hex / normal rear hex (set up 2)...

Set up 1- the rear tracks a tighter line around turns. The car turns tighter. You can also apply more power while turning and the car contines to track a tighter line (than with normal hexes). The rear is more locked down.

Set up 2- turn radius is wider. Applying power while turning causes the entire car drift. i.e. in a banked sweeper, the entire car will want to drift up the banking.

I tried these 2 set ups back to back several times on a track lay out I was familiar and consistent with and that's what I found.

I was sitting next to tebo at neo and he was using the MP9e TKI body on both is cars at the start of the meet then changed to the TKI3 forward cab on sunday I think but then went back to the E body on the Monday on the nitro car. Didn't ask him why though

The engine mount plate seems to be taking a while.

Thanks.

What advantage is there to using this new lower eng mount plate? Also what advantage is there to the aluminum wing stay I've been seeing?
