The body is a modified variant of the existing Speed 12, but this one's been changed to better suite the needs of those that run in STOCK, 19 TURN and naturally MASTERS class on carpet. It'll fit better over the front ends on cars that are out to the maximum width too. The body has a little less overall downform for added efficiency and should prove to be very fast on long straightaways. If a little downforce in the rear is needed, a pair of small (supplied) "gurney flaps" will bring up the rear bite with ease.

Having said all that, I'm also of the opinion that this body might just be the ticket in MODIFIED - in the hands if a pro-level driver. It's also sure to work in MODIfIED on an outdoor paved track. Samples of the Speed 12B #1610-21 have already been sent to ROAR for approval, and I have a photo shoot scheduled on friday. I'll have photos posted on monday.

See you all at the 'Birds! - Dale - PROTOform
Dale.....How soon can we see some pictures of this new body?

Thanks
