Why not consider the Corally. The new Phi 09' is fast and easy to drive out of the box. Product and parts support is superb with Specialized RC ( US distributor for Corally). You do need all of the aluminum upgrades for the car and it will be bullet proof. But sense you already know hotbodies and keep leaning that way go with them. There is a team driver at the track where I race and his car is diled. It requires is supper smooth. A drunk monkey could drive this car blind folded. The fit and finish is good and the car looks well put together like Hot Bodies did its home work when designing it. The steering is very consistant throughout the entire range of motion and has minimal play. Diff is very low maintinance and is as smooth as it was new. The car now has about 40 runs on it. The class is 17.5 super stock sedan.
