Although it wouldn’t be good for racing, are there any open wheel bodies for these 1/8th scalers?

I got a good laugh out of that. I imagine you mean F1! Yes there are a bunch from Delta Plastik. We raced these bodies over 20 years ago...

Yeah I don’t race this class of car, but I love watching and reading up on the different kits. I always thought they would look great with older f1 style bodies that fit the dimensions

I wonder why they changed it??? Maybe because it too close to the Buri, lol.

Its not, this class is an entry level class. Brought on to interest kids into 1:8 IC. The class is run as a spec class, there is only flex in the chassis and two pivo points inder the front axle to allow a type of see saw action left to right.
