If you want big initial turn in... Is200
If you want less initial turn in... Nazda2
If your on asphalt or low grip carpet... Racer

Just in... Mon-Tech Racer has been approved by ROAR. Assloads of bodies coming soon...

I think assloads is a technical term

cut the low line on the top of the wing, and you will have to cut a couple mm inside of the line on the front to get the chord right

Any word on if the Silvy is ever going to be available again, or did it get discontinued?

I don’t really care about handling characteristics that much. You can tune your suspension to do what you want with any body. I liked it because of the way it looked and the way It had anti-tuck molded into the design.

"Hence zero demand for the older shells."

I think this is true for Mod TC and asphalt racing.
We have big demands for is-200 and nazda2 for carpet racing

I'm loving my super lightweight IS-200 mounted 6mm forward on grey carpet.

Holding up surprisingly well for a 63g painted body. Got straight up punted in 17.5TC after clipping a pipe and barrel rolling on to the back straightway. Body only had a small dent on it and I managed to break the other persons car lol.

Got a SLW Racer to try, how far forward should I mount it to get steering as aggressive as my IS-200?
