For me I figure 3 to 4 body's a year anyway so I like the thinner body's, but I see what you are saying. My son's slash body is an older Jconcepts body that feels like .060 material. Super heavy compared to the Method body but also no bad breaks in. (and he crashes a lot... and hard...
) Maybe Method should try and make a light and heavy versions for those not like me that wants a more durable body.

I'm on pace to for 3-4 myself, but I hate painting bodies!! I usually slap a simple paint job on, but I did find a painter who's going to paint my next one. So I want it to last. I can work on my truck all day, but forget about that painting stuff.

That would be great if he did.

The wrap I had done makes the body really tough. It also about 3oz. heaver than a painted body. Swapping back and forth between bodies I can hardly tell a difference in handling. I say offer both or just send me the rest of the thin ones.

This past weekend I raced the Northwest SC Nationals in Pasco, WA. Did not have the best of luck this past weekend and feel like my driving was off but placed 8th out of 50 plus of some of the best 4w SC trucks in the NW. We had bad weather and with wind gust in the 40 mph range at times. Very challenging to drive but the Method body worked very well handled great.
