There's so many beautiful parts available for this body.

Why, oh why, couldn't they have made it in 1/9th scale?

Because all manufacturers are afraid to make a body or vehicle over a 12.3" wheelbase stock. If someone can't plop a body on a RTR it's no good. Generally speaking of course. Us at the SBG are capable of modifications.

And probably also because they took 1/10 scale literally and made it 1/10 even though nothing is 1/10.

In conclusion. :(

I wasn't thinking about wheelbase. Axle width is such an uphill battle. Adjusting wheelbase, it'd just so easy. Although, like you said, if you can't plop it on a RTR then it's a no go.

I kinda understand why Traxxas and the like use the 1/10th scale marker, but am always flummoxed on why the scale manufacturers do so.

It seems I properly derailed this thread, so, in conclusion: absolutely beautiful body! Kinda small :(
