Trim on the cut line, mount the body, and enjoy your retro racing. The front fenders will be a little higher than the Parma Ti22 in order to have the body resting on the guide flag. Its just the way it is. No problem.

Don't like the 1/16 inch rule then don't run it. Run the TI-22.

This body is cut above the cut line and to me looks like the pictures of the 1X1 car.

 

To me it is legal but I would like to hear what Noose has to say.

 

You can't get much lower and still clear the guide flag.

The only thing bad about Retro is admitting that you remember doing it originally.
