I got to see these bodies in person this past weekend and all I can say is "WOW!". Word is that they will be released this week so, yes, they will be IIC ready.

yes a CTS-V would be a class winner for sure. alot of guys here in washington run the lexus LFA or the ZL-1. with the ZL-1 being the most popular. if you guys made the CTS-V i would run that for sure. the camaro handles great and thats why i run that body. something new is needed for the gt class. please please produce one. i only run protoform bodies due to the high quality of the bodies.

Coming from someone that run it, quite aggressive. Like an LTC-R but with a lot of rear downforce too.

Hi Dale! Hi Eric!

So, I haven't seen anyone make a McLaren 650s GT3 shell yet.

It's one of my favorite looking cars right now. I imagine it might be difficult to get all the side detail looking right with a single mold and to make it only 190mm wide, might have to fudge the proportions a bit or have it closer to appearance of the standard 650s. If you could make it work though, woooooooo, what an awesome USGT shell that would be! Your Camaro ZL1 body needs some competition

Can't hurt to ask anyway.

BTW, the new TC shell looks really good. Nice work, as always, Dale.

Hope to see both of you gentlemen at a race soon. I'll see you guys in March at least.

Eric, is there any chance you could make a 2016 Toyota Supra body for USGT?

Yup, that's the Dart. When mounted centered up in the front wheelwells it has the same amount of steering as a MazdaSpeed6 does mounted forward. I feel that it generates a little more chassis roll, and because of that I think it rotates better than the MazdaSpeed6 does.

On my small track at home the Dart is consistently a tenth faster than the MazdaSpeed6 in Mod, but I haven't quite figured out a setup I like with it yet on larger tracks like Thunder or IIC. I think our local Stock guys feel the same way about it.

I haven't tried one mounted forward at all yet but I do want to at some point.

Hi

What is the range of wheelbase for Mazda6 GX ?

I tried to seek it in your website, and also the net, but it is not available.
