I especially picked the type without the molded-in rear shock clearance. Makes it easier to fit to different car models.

Well Jay , you've seen I fitted the single seater to my stinger instead of the SWB optima mid...but I also had a doubleseater from you!

when I left Japan I gave this to Mister Tanaka of Timetunnel and see what he did:

Jay- I think that Hotshot looks awesome, but that custom wing definitely helps it. The standard one was less impressive.
Here's one with the correct wing: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/pictureframe.asp?t=n&id=img2640_09042005043143_1.jpg
I know there's a couple people over at TC who have Wells bodies-- I was offered one at one time. :wink: Maybe that would be a starting point? I could email him if you'd like.
The preceding contained opinions, beliefs and thoughts that all may not agree with. No offense was intended at any point. Carry on.
