Yeah I agree, it's still pretty nice.

That'sm the problem right there. That's what get's me so irked abou t so many ZZ bodies. Bit are so goofy proportioned, little wheels in front, big wheels in back, and all scrunched up with raised roofed, and yet some how, you know exactly what the car is, and it's cool looking.

On the other hand you got RS's approach. The longer chassis has much more potential to be more to scale, the most out of scale part is the wheels which are closer to 1/43rd scale wheels. But then the bodies all have snubbed noses. They are shrunk close to the chassis, and they are shortened from the ground too. You can body kit them to fill the gap, but really it look kinda clunky, because a lot of bodies already have a bit of ground effects on them, it's just scrunched up into the shorten nose. It almost looks like you're stacking body kits on top of body kits.

They've also produced some really nice bodies, and you start to think they've got it figured out, then another body comes out with the scrunched up nose. If they just extended the front ends out more everything would look so much better. It's just frustrating to me, because the potential is there.

... and the rounded roof, what's with all the dome roofs, then the VW never got released because it wasn't dome-y enough for the V-dub guys....

Sorry I think I starting to lose it over here, I better stop why I'm still half sane.

Exactly.....how many times do I have to tell those dumb fucks to quit making low slung sports cars until they can lower the profile of the ZZSE chassis.

Ass-lookin' shell aside, how does that thing perform? I'm assuming its going to be as good as the Shelby Mustang.
