Yes, we have a few of these out there now! We are also working on a solid front end option, as well as a narrow pod for the standard car. The solid front end will still allow the wheelbase adjustment but will be a set width- either standard or SS. It will be a more durable option for the racers, where the initial release was more for the drag and scale crowd looking for a better fit for their bodies. It still bolts on, so you have the option late on to change widths.
A good customer, Dan, has provided some pics of his Factory Works 10L in ready to run form. I love the vintage look!

I think the option to adopt existing chassis i.e. with new adapter plates for the front end would be apealing to not just the few here, but also in Europe. If you were to adapt to the AE or CRC front ends. I think its awesome to help people get into (Wide) pan cars.
Car needs some wide foams

Anyone run the latest VBC 235 car? I picked up one to try. I had to make a new front plate with adjustable holes to narrow the front end. It was way to wide for the Swift body I have. Other than that car seems solid.

they still have that problem?? I expected it to be fixed by the 2nd version.
Here is my original VBC 235mm which I'm about to put up for sale soon.

It seems that it depends from the motorization.
If you are running babymod or 13.5 blinky, you should go for Knack P-1001 (or 801) or TeamSaxo, and if you are running full mod, with or without timing, go for the VIP.
I've ran Team Saxo with 5.5, it is nice in the curves, but in the straight, it is quite dangerous

Its end of the year, and Pro10 season is over. I am sure there will be some new parts or such that the manufacturers will offer. The VIP VTE car is awesome although you need donor parts, and given perhaps you are in Europe you can get ahold of them rather easily. Tobias is a great guy to deal with.
