Parmas bodies aren't always the prettiest but there usually the toughest.

If they are like the 12th scale bodies, they should be more geared tword the better(Less crashes) driver. I know the 12th scale didn't hold up well. But knowing Parma, It should be good!!

292mm front fender? I thought the max was 296mm? Shouldn't it have been made a little wider?

This body looks nice. If I were a short course body manufacturer I would double or triple the thickness of the bodies and increase durablilty. The added weight is neglible. You would sell them like hotcakes....

Default the slow decline of realism

Another new unrealistic body. Same thing happened to 2wd buggy, 2wd stadium truck, etc. How about a class that mandates "realistic bodies" like the one attached. Let's just get it over with and start putting wings on the bodies.
