The vintage bodies seem to fit the B6 better than the B5M. The B6 must be narrower on the front 1/3 of the chassis, that's where I have problems.

I've always wondered how the bodies affect lap times. I know for me, there's no difference between Detonator/Bandit bodies and the cab forward pieces of crap.

I will say though, the B6 has the cab moved slightly rearward. It's not quite as forward as the B5 was/is.

People say the cab forward designs make for better downforce. But, with a front wing that kinda negates that whole idea anyways.

The "Basher" comes with a cab-rearward body, and it's new.

Had the local fast guy drive the car around the track, because I can't tell if there's a difference. He basically said he couldn't either. On that, the B6 body actually doesn't look that bad, but it's still in that "What is that?" category of bodies, whereas the original protech body is recognizable as a "buggy" body.
