Any experience making moulds? Plugs?.. I'm building a vacuum forming machine to pull some bodies and body parts.. you supply the plug, I'll vac. Some bodies for ya..😉
 
You should search 1/10 bodies.. any should work.. bitty designs, jconcepts, protoform!!
I've checked them..most 1/10 are 325mm.i think traxxas 4-tec body will work, still researching

Not sure what any of this means, but it sounds cool..im just wanting a super aero body that'll possibly reach 150++
 
What measurements are u using, from front foams to rear splitter, cuz thats vendetta specific!? U will have to fab a little!
Or try 1/8 body!?
Wheelbase,swb is 287mm an lwb is 327mm

Love these,bit they are 327mm...would fit lwb 1/10 or swb 1/8 thou

Traxxas website lists the longest 4tec (3.0 Corvette) at 288mm wheelbase. The Supra is 272mm. Many 1/10 touring cars (Fazer MKII, Tamiya TT-02) share a similar length with the 4tec 2.0 at 256mm. I think most of the aftermarket bodies are around this length.

Drag Slash is 327mm, so it could work with a LWB
 
If you're just wanting Aero benefits, the Vorteks body is pretty damn aerodynamic, and would be a cakewalk to mount.
