Maybe post a pic of what you're looking at, might give better idea of what you've got going on.

As of now, cars tested are :

- GTP2-E
- Ofna DM Spec
- Kyosho GT2 transformed to GT wheelbase with short chassis

I will be receiving my R2 for the Peruvian race tomorrow or wednesday max, then to paint department ... will show the pics as soon as i receive it.

regards

Hi Pato, so does this mean it's not intended for GT2 after all, only for buggy wheel base cars like the ones above ? I'm a bit confused now.

If im not mistaken there is a 1/7 scale version to that fits dm1 and gt2 I think it was the first version.

MikaR and "rest of the guys", just to clarify.

Alpha RC have 2 bodies, R1 and R2.

R1 is this one and is oriented to GT2-like chassis (long) inclusing DM ONE 1/7 from Ofna :

Now, the R2 is for short chassis around 330mm wheelbase (DM SPEC, Inferno GT, Buggy mods, GTP2-E, etc) :

Now, Alpha RC works their bodies with inspiration in real cars, for R1 (long) the base was this (Audi R8) :

And for R2, this one (Peugeot RCZ) :

hope this info clears out all guys, cya !

Within 1 to 2 weeks.

Lee at Winner's Circle is taking pre-orders right now.

Also check out the pricing for both front & rear slicks and Warrior bodies while you're there. You should like what you see!
