Ok making the switch to mid motor this month I've decided. The MIP trans looks interesting, I will have to keep my eye on it. We have a local MIP driver here that is really nice so I will have to try his and see how I like it. I can see pros and cons to it but so far MIP hasn't dissapointed with anything so I will give it the benefit of the doubt until we can see how it works. As far as the body goes that's a silly thing to worry about since it will be super easy to trim the other side out. The only bad thing there is you will need another body unless you want a gap on the other side, either way no big deal.
