Is it just me, or when I look at the body lists from RCCA of who is running what body at the races, I don't see any HPI bodies. Protoform/Parma's bodies can't be that much better than HPI's, can they? I ran a Dodge Stratus Aero 2 (190mm, and I thought way more pros would have HPI's Stratus 2 than they did. There wasn't one HPI body on the list) at the HPI challenge, and it handled wonderfully. Much better than a Lamborghini... What's the deal? And what do you guys think of the Pro4 vs. the TC3? Is it too close to call? Does it all come down to personal preference. I noticed HPI has much more carbon fiber, and AE has more carbon plastic. Thanks in advance.
