Yeah, one less body post to put on.
Seriously, I set my bodies to be firm on the foam bumper, it supports the front better. I plan to cut the post so it is just under the included body support.
With the body firm against the bumper and the 5th post supporting the hood, but not through it, the body should still be as stable and flex very little. All without having to drill an extra hole and having to deal with another clip.
As AMG mentioned we used to glue a piece of foam onto the top of our steer servo to do exacty this. That was back in the days when the V-one R was the new kid on the block, Mugen's MTX2 was relatively new, the HPI Racer2 was still a common sight at the track, and even a few Spider MKII's were known to get a race. How times have changed..
