diff handling with diff bodies?
 
has anyone else experienced diff handling with diff bodies. I just switched bodies (ipmreza and rx-7 and toyota truck all unmodified) and experienced vastly diff handling from quicker turning to straighter steering to more drifting. just wondering if anyone else has seen this in their bits.

The reason why they handle differently is because of the weight. Naturally the toyota truck is heavier cause it has more plastic on it so this can affect handling and it depends where the weight is focused on too. If you run without a body the car tends to be slightly quicker too, i think.... or at least from my personal experience. Oh and there are no aerodynamics in these little r/c cars. 3mph i don't even think will create downforce winds in real life, theory is a different story though.

well...all my bodies are extreamly light...because i cut out tons of stuff....like the windows, bigger front fascia vents...hood vents..etc....anything i could cut out to where it doesnt look weerd, i cut those out..
and now i can run faster and turn quicker than the standard stock cars... :D
a lighter body improves overall performance
