I'm not sure what I'm going to do it with it, but it looked cool.

You can have it for what I paid for it, $39.00 with shipping.

 

It's 3D printed, and has some texture.

 

It's very light compared to a typical hardbody body.

 

Only 13.1G.

 

With that spoiler, I wouldn't flip it. LOL

 

I see it as a possible drag body, (although it's really not a drag shape)

Mark,
I'll add, don't expect Brian to allow it to race.

You already sold me, no need to entice me further. See you later today.

no need to entice me further.

But there's more.

 

I just flexed the spoiler and was pleasantly surprised the amount of flex.

 

I think it might survive a trip on the roof.

 

Especially if you rounded off the corners a bit.

One of my racers swears he saw Ken Block change direction, with it, while airborne.

I mentioned this car to a friend of mine, and he responded with this picture. The local model club has a contest every year, and this model won "Best of Show" for 2017:

No, big thanks.

 

I didn't notice.

 

Did he list the manufacturer, anywhere?

No I don't see where he got the body and interior but he did make some parts.

Cool! I have a Carrera digital 132 set, 3d printed this body myself, sanded, painted, and voila!

 

( I still have to print the chassis  :D )

 

I decided to go with my own livery, painted it a rusty orange color.
