I hope this just a prototype and not the finished design. I would hope they would not limit this to one wheelbase length. Love the nrrow chassis though.

Pretty sure that is the only wheelbase.
But a later version will be backward compatible with previous bodies so.... |

Any dimensional data yet? Width/height/weight?

The car looks Great. Can't wait to try it. This car could bring a whole new crowd into ho racing as well as please the longtime hobbyists. John Cukras
should be congratulated on this one-- he has blended some new ideas with some old and the constraints of having to produce a car that seems to please the set
demands as well as the aftermarket hunger for speed, handling and tinkerability. With the team of Cukras and Steve Russell working together, the body
development and the rolling chassis should be free of the S3 problems. John tells me the prototype drives very nimbly with a light feel unlike say for example
the heavier stuck feel of the turbo or SRT. Congrats again guys on a job well done. To answer the weight question it sounds like the car may come in around 12
grams for chassis and body combined. Unreal!!!!

Guys,
I have been looking into getting some grade 8B ceramic traction magnets made for the forthcoming Tomy Mega-G chassis. Whilst I appreciate that this will not appeal to most, it could be if you are a home racer of run at a club that mostly uses ceramic magnet cars, that these might enable you to run the new chassis in a meaningful way rather than just look at the cars with jaw dropping looks and long wheelbases on a shelf.... Cost would be about $3-4 a pair. DEANE |

Any idea if there will be IRL livries for this chassis. I see some Dallara-styled bodies, but nothing that looks to be licensed. Also, is there a release date for these yet? |
