Hi

I have one uncut and unpainted.

May Jay have one also.

I need to do a mold and to tune it to fit the airscoop of the one's used in 1993 during the World Champ at Basildon.

In process, but as you all know or have been reading, dependent on my day job schedule.
I am not here cause I am playing photographer and on my mountain bike.

Has a repo of this body been done yet? I would love to get a couple of these if they are available.

Not yet, maybe since work has claimed I can knock it out..... first I plan on taking some time off and getting out in the middle of the woods for some R&R.

Sounds goods, when you do get some bodies done let us know. I put my Sphere and a 17.5 in my team car and ran it the last 2 points nights at our track, T.Q.ed and won both nights and I plan on running it all next summer but it just doesn't look right to me with the Viper body, the Mirage is the best looking body for the team/worlds car and I can't wait to get my hands on one.

The SS, as far as I know, never had a scoop. Just the Turbo Mirage.

Later in its production run, the Mirage SS was also available with a scoop.

Never seen one. Learn something new every day.

Not sure what Cedric's obsession with scoops stems from, but looks like he is disappointed a third time.

I think you need to design an optional scoop kit for your RCPS bodies :D .
