forget the ford GT, we need this in a 190!

protoform has a 1/8 corvette gt2, perfect for USGT. Stop teasing us!

My Caddy body was over a year old and getting ratty. Old one was silver with red stripe, so I decided to switch it up.

Going retro. Used to whoop up on the field running HPI truck bodies!

Yes, Juwan. You can use any ROAR approved battery. Size isn't an issue.

It's a body I've been waiting on. The kit won't be out till December 10th so you'll more than likely have to wait till then or early next year to get the body.

I saw a Protoform Lexus LFA on sale recently at a local hobby store.. Anybody have experience running this in a rubber touring car class or USGT?

I've run the LFA a couple times, and it actually worked pretty good. I was happy with it. It is just a tick wide I you are running 190mm width.

I think Eric Epp ran the LFA at the MHIC last April in Denver. Found a Saturn SC2 body on ebay though I honestly feel they should pay me to take it. It would make for some good painting practice.
