How about you do custom bodies specially for Traxxas cars. I've searched everywhere but I can't find a Triumph Spitfire 1500 body for my rustler and it's really begining to annoy me. I also think that a Back to the Future DeLorean body would look good on the 4-tec/nitro 4-tec.

I don't see too many Triumphs on this side of the pond. I'd like to have Lexan version of my Series V Alpine, but I don't think it would sell well here. http://www.traxxas.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

you are limited by what bodies mainly by the aerodynamics of it,i think they dont make certain ones because by the time they make it so it works well it wouldnt look like the same car,also popularity, they have to sell alot of bodies to make it profitable. i had a corvette body on my 4 tec and after a few crashes the wing fell off and the thing wouldnt stay on the ground at high speeds, down force is a major factor.

I can see the point about flipping it with the nitro trucks, but you could put wieghts in, surely?
